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)
视听体验极佳，可是除此之外好像就没有其他优点了，冗长拖沓，简单、却又故作深沉的内核撑不起整部片子，聊胜于无

拍得非常漂亮，但这个典故有什么改编的意义吗？

看来古典爱好者和冒险爱好者的目标群体重叠不多，分这么低。
黑白与彩色，归乡与离乡。
色调很好，故事太差，整篇敢情是白马王子的大型造星揭秘。
儿童，宠物，童话，降智的永远在抢夺路上的反派，嗯套路雷同也就算了，但是演的真的有点差啊，演技呢演技。。。
中世纪的氛围营造得还是不错的。高文爵士和绿衣骑士的故事本身就是挺温吞的一个传奇故事，之前一直想看会如何改编，没想到基本都是原样照搬，最后结局来了个《基督最后的诱惑》，然而基督是用凡人无法承受的痛苦替换了平庸而幸福的一生，是失去，是付出，但毫无担当的纨绔子弟高文却是用痛快解决的一斧替换卑鄙懦弱的一生，还是选了容易的一条路而赚到啊。难怪要让印度小哥儿来演，既显示了政治正确，还不用让英格兰帅哥们去演这个渣男而毁掉形象呢。英美帝国的文化产品，用心真是很深啊。
一部充满现代性的、重述与改写的骑士史诗，高文爵士成了浪荡懦弱的纨绔子弟，英雄传奇也染上了权谋表演的底色，绿衣骑士的树精造型及对绿色的那段直白阐述则似生态批评典例。大卫·洛维依旧喜欢把玩时间魔术，一如那段360度顺时针（显露可能的未来中的尸体）与逆时针（回到当下）的横摇镜头、无头圣女的还魂与尸骨复原，还有高潮时对老马丁[基督最后的诱惑]的效仿致敬。摄影和色彩叙事都可圈可点。180度倒转的镜头、恍若深井的床榻俯拍、误食致幻蘑菇+目击山中巨人群的场面让人眼前一亮，小狐狸很可爱。艾丽西亚·维坎德的一人分饰两角与人偶戏里的[高文爵士与绿衣骑士]（注意那个转盘）别有意味。幻梦中抽出绿色腰带之时契如刨出罪恶之蛇。PS：影片中最让人不寒而栗的还是巴里·基奥恩演的Scavenger一角，秒速穿越回[圣鹿之死]。（8.0/10）
8，绿衣骑士，女巫，灯塔，A24邪门三部曲。没做调研看得我云里雾里，事后查资料才意识到影片做的改动和小心思相当多。这个离谱的摄影和配乐把氛围做到了极致，加上晦涩的对白，真的像是走在原诗里，诡秘壮丽的自然叹为观止，中间的受难和行善增添了颇多的神秘色彩，城堡故事改动最大，但也把高文更加人性化了，有时候，确实再多的磨难也没法改变一个人，也使坏地给出了相对应的另一个结局，所以对照之下，最后展现出的骑士精神难能可贵。题外话，不知道有生之年能不能看到中国神话传说类似的演绎
甚是唏嘘，而这类宏大叙事的作品，要很具备实力的编导才能实现，虽未能十分满意，导演以90的高龄，还是能运用音乐和画面的牵引下，观众被卷入一种深层的悲伤。
开场事件不错，结果那一年居然直接就用字幕卡略去了，叙事大硬伤…… 主角在凡间的那一年时光对解释人物动机可以起到很大作用，至少应占据半小时篇幅，尤其结合结尾想表达的主题来看更是如此。
我穿越森林穿越荒野
风格非常诡奇迷幻的电影 画风配乐都很棒
