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)
邵庄还是演这种高智商角色，小宝这角色也还是很有个性，各种场面交汇很好看，结尾还有杀不死、异物志和城市的边缘彩蛋，我很喜欢这片子，我给五星。（8.4/10）
这群人总是很有想法。虽然都不是大制作，但是故事上总是很有趣味。
从头到尾几乎所有的逻辑都没有站稳，还有各种铺垫出的巧合和梗，然后一顿东拼西凑。依然在消费“毛骗”的情怀，看过这个“团伙”作品的人能明白里面的梗，可对于推向市场的电影，片子确实太牵强。
撇开剧情不谈，场景挺好挺接地气的，一看就像是我们正常人的生活，不像欢乐颂或者小时代里面那种虚无高端的生活场景。
【黑米影库】完成度不错的作品，稍有点浮夸的演技，但可以瑕不掩瑜！
比非常保镖好，也让我想到一些事，深夜看完有感触。
看出点疯狂的赛车内味儿。有情怀加成看得很开心，笑死，应该是冬冬导得最好一部了
很好，好看。很欢乐，出租车队伍真强大！小故事能讲的这么流畅，厉害👍。
迫不及待看完《冤家宜解不宜结》，主要是源于《毛骗》的惊艳，但就算没有看过后者的情怀滤镜，这部电影中随处可见的奇思妙想也体现出优映团队满满的诚意。这个富有创意强于剧本创作的团队不满足于网剧的规模，多年来尝试转型，但囿于资金匮乏，先后产出如《杀不死》、《非常保镖》以及《城市的边缘》等作品的质量，就仿佛他们镜头下始终被雾霾笼罩的石家庄，忧郁穷困，天然粗粝，还带有一点时代的迷茫，只靠不甘心坚持着。或许，这是优映团队从以《毛骗》为代表的手工作坊阶段向电影工厂阶段转型的过程，真心期待他们早日成功，国产影视需要有诚意和创意的团队来超出优秀的作品。

还是网剧的摄影风格和运镜。讲了一个比较完整的故事，片子三星，情怀加一星。
忘掉毛骗，重新认识他们
还是你们的作品对口，包哥越来越没有违和感了，加油
普通的网大电影的水平，没有了他们一贯的反转。本片只推荐给毛骗的粉丝看。
虽然四平八稳的，但总感觉不到激情。故事完整，细节到位，就是不适合电影，剪成短片剧集试试吧
包哥：真牛逼！ 希望李洪绸团队多出好电影
为了生活，我们改变了太多
剧情还是一样紧凑。马文龙：若不按时归还 天打雷劈hhhhhhhhhhh
绝对的低成本电影，小众，有点点无厘头，但是也还是有看头。最近深感需要看些喜剧。
很不错的，建议看，就是内容有点多了，再拍一次就好。
