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)
邪惡之人，必不能繼承上帝的王國⋯他們將繼承人間
前半部分是有在创新的，看得出来导演想走出套路化。但是后半部分的台词有比较大的问题，不断地在重复和反复，给我看困了
在48小时封闭期间，看看帅哥美女最合适，也足够了。
流水线级的爱情片。片名翻译的不错，但是故事很无聊，一点新鲜的元素都没有。既不算小清新，也不算大尺度，不知道男主的身材能不能吸引一些女生，反正我是不吃女主的颜。感情戏的逻辑性很怪，特别是男主一会撩一会装。乍一看女主热情奔放主动出击，男主明明喜欢女主还闷骚的装深沉搞欲擒故纵。转念一想，其实设定很简单，就是把现实中男女对感情的态度和状态对调了一下。两星半
不功不过的浪漫爱情喜剧片，两个看起来相互憎恨彼此的男女主，结果早就对对方芳心暗许，老套的剧情，可我就是喜欢这么别扭又口是心非的哈哈。两个人剧情进展太奇怪了，感觉中间有些不必要的波折，比如女主误会男主在骗他，而面对两人共同的竞争，男主另谋高就直接退出的处理方式也让我不太喜欢，看起来就像拱手相让一样，并不尊重女主的做法。电影好在两个人的化学反应真的很好，恨的时候有恨的那股劲，爱的时候也欲罢不能，好评。
2结尾神父的女儿过来抓住了神父的手，手上凸显一道红印，结合神父说的“上天也出了牌”和神父的女儿眼中露出的白光（剧中恶魔眼中都是绿色的光），Balban附体了神父，上帝也应该选了和他有血缘关系的女儿。
影片展现的驱魔手段单调，到最后就是双方对着喊，似乎完全比拼意志，没任何技术，国人较难理解，与想象中封神榜那样的各种法术大相径庭
脑洞大开的一场魔与神驱逐对狙，神父犯了错还不敢承认算是最大的错误，随着民众的认可迷失了方向，直到女儿出问题才追悔莫及，老伙伴临死反复嘱托不能做交易也挡不住自我献祭救孩子，从主教的态度来看魔鬼和上帝某种角度既对立又共存，只是苦了这帮基层工作者，要么附身要么被干，魔化的圣母和耶稣造型好评，神父的内心挣扎都写在脸上了有点太过，最后有点万能钥匙的感觉，不过魔鬼感慨女儿的神性和神父的牺牲应该算是扳回一城没彻底失败，不过老一辈暗暗倒下了，新一代又要接棒也是挺残酷的，像极了生活
质量③星，冲着设定概念有意思+①。
20220318 01:50两星雕像算惊悚点，宗教题材算惊悚点。抛开一惊一乍对音乐，剧情完全没法看。说真的最后那个喊麦battle我真的笑起来了……20220318 02:01 三星，我要更新一下评论。这群恶魔真的很上进，很有事业心。
好喜欢，轻喜剧，高颜值，小清新，性张力也很足。本是竞争对手，天天除了打嘴炮还有心理战，却在日常的斗嘴过程中互生情愫，好像一个游戏又加了爱情的味道。和竞争对手的激烈竞争也可以成就一个更好的自己，to be a better version of ourselves。势均力敌的爱情，有点甜。
god always lives inside everybody until you reach him
有意思，“每次驱魔仪式都一样，你以为恶魔是傻子吗”，于是恶魔活学活用，厉害了！
所以驱魔时怀上的孩子，居然是弥赛亚吗？导演你可真大胆啊
让我这个无宗教信仰的人都惊掉下巴！
牛逼，这个创意无敌了，反向驱魔，恶魔驱神！导演能力还有剧本可以再打磨一下
特效有点假，虽然好多恶魔的镜头，但是不恐怖
看看还不错吧！挺有脑洞创意的（恶魔驱上帝）。神父的女儿很漂亮。神父最终妥协于恶魔达成交易，换回了女儿和其它人的生命。最后一幕从神父的眼睛可以看出恶魔是附身于神父体内的，然后女儿的眼睛却出现了上帝的圣光。看来结尾神父踏上梵蒂冈之途这是在下一盘很大的棋啊。不知还有没有下一部，挺好奇是否还会出现什么天马行空的驱魔故事和刺激的电影画面！
电影正派无数次诸如“我即是上帝”大胆言论，
挺套路的小妞电影，但还算不错。为啥现在好的小妞电影这么少了呢？
