Michael Hanake meets the Blair Witch Project in Kim Gok's Exhausted, a vicious kick in the pants to everyone in the audience, all in the name of "style." A man meets a mute woman, and as any reasonable person would do in such a situation, makes her his prostitute. But the pimping is the least of our problems. As we get exhausted by the grainy faux-16mm camerawork, the film gets increasingly deranged. The closest thing we get to a sympathetic character is the pimp, simply because he's got too much self-respect to fuck a mute whore. Everyone else is either a gory mess, or a gory mess in disguise. Even the prostitute, which even a thug like Lars von Trier would make likeable, comes off as a delirious scary woman whose shrieks strike like blows to the jugular.
Kim Gok has seemingly abandoned the Marxist critiques of his short films, going instead for mindless brutality which culminates in an endless bloody freak-show involving, among other things, a pair of scissors going where pairs of scissors should not go. In the middle of the bloodbath, we get an extended long take of the beaten prostitute's near-dead face, but it does not elicit sympathy or pity. In fact, images of the victim only make us shy away in shock. (Indeed, the extended sequence led to continuous walk-outs during the Pusan screening.) The long take invites us to stare, but it assumes we're as sadistic as the victimizer (and the film) is. Meanwhile the sound-effects (mostly a rumbling bassline that shakes the theater) pulsates with pure wickedness. With Hanake, shock creates reflection, which asks that we be critical. Here, we only want to escape. I suppose Exhausted has some virtues; the shots of drilling machines and factories provide a mesmerizing phallic backdrop to the pimp and prostitute's pursuits. But everything else hurts too much. At least Kim Ki-duk lets us breathe. Exhausted makes Bad Guy look like Lady and the Tramp. (asiaarts.ucla.edu)
现在的米国片是不是必须得有各种肤色的人搁一块拍才能ZZ正确？
男主真是有魅力~女警察也挺好玩的
确实高开低走，结局意义不明，女主是要追击？黑化？还是为续集做铺垫？
先睹为快，所谓高清4K画质，电影🎦也许最后真的不是电影院🎦公映为唯一观看渠道了…给3星勉强
枪战场面更是不值一提
成本再低，經費再少
剧本就像烂梗说明书，敢这么瞎编珍素big胆，最帅的王男还给写死了。

杀手三还不够疯狂
难看他妈给难看哭丧，难看死了。看这个片的感受就是，当年鲜衣怒马的初恋，今年就变成油腻张东升了，还是喜欢嚼蒜拍小男生屁股的那种油腻。要剧情，剧情跟摊煎饼一样，那叫一个平。要人物，跟摊的煎饼一样，就剩下平面了，翻个面都没啥花。曾经喜欢的讽刺和不政治正确，现在变成了逼乎讲你新编的故事。导演别搞腐，直男搞不来的。就连导演曾经最引以为豪的打戏编排都崩了，只有三英战妖僧和高空跳伞还能窥见当初那一点点灵气。这片唯一高级的就是乳法，一战在法国领土上大杀特杀，但这片里英德俄轮番儿作妖，就是不说法国，黑到深处就是抹掉你的存在。里面贼多设定细想就是黑啊，全世界佣人联合起来帮助英国贵族，列宁是反派走狗，最后希特勒干死尼古拉斯二世全家，真尼马敢编！导演，您要是飞坏脑子，那就飞去吧，别这么糟蹋自己亲儿了好嘛。
以为是个惊悚人性片,结果就是个警匪动作片...
耐心點會發現，其實挺有意思的；美國警察本來就是很肥很廢柴的啊~有人還想要期待什麼動作槍戰麼~~
乡村警局陷落，剪剪更好，装腔作势的对决能少点不？枪战很港片
很不错的故事啊，气球杀手是亮点，而杰拉德最后的出场一点也不意外。
台词和节奏比007无暇赴死强太多！一部爽片，黑人女主演的不错，反派气球老头非常出彩。
以为会看到致敬意大利西部片的故事，结果虎头蛇尾。巴特勒硬是打不死是吧。
三流的剧情
前面还不错，角色不停变换。动作戏也蛮好看。最后的反转反转太刻意了。优缺点都明显，所以大多数人都打三星吧。
前传与前两部的风格迥然不同，变成了对历史的戏说，斐迪南大公遇刺、俄国十月革命、拉斯普京乱政、白宫艳照门、以及最后彩蛋希特勒与列宁的会晤……整体还是平庸无趣，亮点在于三人合战芭蕾舞魔僧拉斯普京，略显cult气质。
各怀鬼胎的各路人物汇聚于警察局，但是不知道哪里出了毛病，本应精彩纷呈的相互牵制加巧妙外因推动的剧情却如同白开水。你会迷茫于各色人物的行为逻辑中，甚至发生了什么都没搞清楚。试图用留白加强点悬念，却因为糟糕的节奏让人根本就不在乎，或者说。。。卖弄之前，观众就猜中了结局而已。
