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)
Everybody wants to be themselves.
挺好看的音乐剧（印象），没什么很深刻的东西，但是太可爱了……
羡慕Jamie的勇敢，you don't need other people's permission to be you.
挺紧张刺激的，就扯了点，反派也突然神经质造反，一直以为男主是河正宇
舞台劇珠玉在前，大大削弱了電影的可看性，除了添加了部分回憶閃回其他基本和音樂劇版無異了，更喜歡John McCrea。
有那么一会儿剧本好吸引人，女主也好飒。但还有提升空间呢
一个有创意的设定。不错的叙事结构。凌厉的动作剪辑。还有我张谦蛋大哥！
抠除几个不合理的地方，其实还行。最主要是致幻剂能进入其他人的身体有点扯
先被原声打动之后才看的官摄和电影。个人感觉官摄和电影各有各的好，电影的几处改动是适合电影的表达方式，也对我的口味，而且听了几遍原声之后我反倒对新加的两首歌印象最好。在现实世界越来越倒退的状况下，只有在电影里才能看到这样一个宽容和包容的社会，让人在幽暗中还不放弃希望。
内容就是黑白道里有人互吃，要干掉知情人，然后男主就是灵魂出窍转换到那天要杀害他们的几个人中，换来换去，就跟有任意门一样，还好我耐住性子了，不怕特么跳来跳去的，我就不想看了，然后就是换来换去搞清楚自己是谁，然后保护女友，并搞定真相和害他的人。
看多了现实世界里恶意言论，在这部《人人都在谈论杰米》里得到些许安慰，尽管有些人不理解、不接受，甚至遭受排斥、歧视、霸凌……杰米依然选择勇敢地做真实自己。联想起 bilibili 知名美食UP主「一食纪」的《谢谢，再见。》视频以及一些相关报道，不禁感伤得有些想哭……P.S.：★★★☆，比起电影版，更喜欢音乐剧版。

真的好久没看过音乐剧了 要不是朋友要一起看我也不会没事主动看的 是非常feel good的影片 如果是十多岁的时候看的应该会被感动哭吧
Richard Grant老师好棒呜呜"it is a revolution"
还是可以刷的 6.5低了 结尾应该跳到女孩身上，然后一起反杀，那就更完美了
冲他是我最喜欢的音乐剧之一先给5星，质量后面再说
题材不错，只是导演没有完全表达出题材的特色。拍摄手法有点混乱。
还算中规中矩，在情节基本没有改动的情况下添加了不少细节，可惜表演张力不够导致情感传递不到位，包括妈妈这个角色也居然没能打动我，但冲着John McCrea演年轻时候的loco chanelle我也要多加一星
6.5。女主不错，但是花瓶。创意还行，但叙事还是韩国那种爱情戏。剧情借鉴了永无止境和其他一些磕药电影，但是灵魂转换这个比那些电影还扯。
“为什么所有的人都想要救你？”“不是所有人，全都是一个人。”
