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)
整部电影我最期待导演如何讲述科隆体与本体关于自我存在感的认知转变上，结果最后只是落在了情感上，还挺失望的，还不如《瑞克和莫蒂》触及得深刻，构图挺好看的，回忆剪辑还不错
如果妻子是克隆人，还能感受到一丝温情。苹果定制片，苹果设计理念大赏。
克隆人题材，焦点不是伦理问题，而是生命的延续和人格的交接。
假设苹果拍电影动用了自己的产品设计部、广告部、appletv、apple car、apple music、apple design、“apple future”那么，这就是一部融合的综合宣传片
1. Apple TV 终于开始发力，做出一些有质量的作品了。
对影片中的科幻元素还是蛮…无奈的。太多《黑镜》的风格化的设定，导致最后的成片会让我感觉有些索然无味。也只有Ali的表演才能唤醒我的兴趣
那锁住我生命的沉重枷锁
画面很棒，演技不错，但我不太喜欢这么平淡的片子
Technology allowing people to take away 「The pain is all I have of him」.「I love you. Always have. And always will.」
比起探讨伦理问题更多的是情感表达，男主演技好的离谱，把跟自己拥有相同记忆的克隆人和自己能演出区别来，那个没有经历过喜悦和伤痛的灵魂，怎么都是纯粹一些的
某镜没了，每年能看这么部作品也行呀。
优点吧，画面干净简洁优美，各种插叙的剪辑也非常不错。环境部分总是会让我想到机械姬。剧情上，一旦代入感不真实，就很容易跳脱。比如科技已达克隆人地步，总会感觉整体环境改变应该会更大，另外一个克隆人如此大的项目，不可能在客户还在纠结反复的阶段就已准备就绪，一旦这个前提怀疑，所有的剧情都会感觉是根据需要去推动挣扎～不真实感也会很高。细品故事情节很简单～所以能以这么有层次的结构方法去展示，已是一部合格电影！
上一次让人感到这么无力是看《星运里的错》……
{★★★} 小成本科幻越来越充斥我们的视线，这是一个次品率极低的流派--除了因为它是一个绝好的展现电影人对未来新奇想象力的平台，还因为几乎所有小成本科幻片都关于R-E-N人。因此哪怕这部电影用接近两小时讲述了一个没有任何惊喜和突破的故事，我也无法抱怨太多。但那不代表我不会开始审美疲劳。
苹果未来产品线大赏。核心议题是亲情和爱情，设身处地，我们会怎么选择？可能不走到那一步永远不会知道答案。
命题很好但展开的太浅薄 人的情感太复杂了 以及科技都到了可以复制意识的程度却治不了绝症…我不理解
7.6分，值得一看的软科幻电影，可能最近悬疑片看太多了，还以为这是个局，其实就是个关于人生、死亡和爱情的故事。阿里的演技真的是封神。
很苹果 很近的未来，总觉得这样的探讨很有意思
制作美 细致 人物刻画和情感太入微了 温柔的科技
黑镜既视感。摄影，剪辑，光影，设计，都太对我胃口了。
