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)
美国有敌对竞争就百花齐放 一切都积极向上的时代
童年的回忆,不管是欢笑还是泪水,总是回味无穷,又无忧无虑的。一家人的各种小细节,点点滴滴,回忆起来都是暖暖的
65/100 拟真化动画还蛮特别的,这风格确实有种复古的感觉。其实不是太空登月只是一个引子,主要的故事还是记录60年代美式生活和流行文化的点滴,配合着旁白更有种导演自己回望青春的纪录片感。
挨炸救人,再挨炸再救人,看起来很流水账,可这就是乌东老百姓的日常,基辅统治者造就了字面意义上的官逼民反。不过最后俄国人的天兵神降有点好笑,好似武工队艰苦战斗终于等到了八路军。
感受历史小记忆的大集合,以及现世的满地鸡毛
60后美国人的童年记忆和80后中国人有着微妙的重合
林克莱特将60年代美国登月梦想的潮流时代意伪纪录片的形式搬上了荧幕。通过小男孩的幻想和真实发生的登月情节相融合,无不凸显着在那个时代,登月梦想和对太空的遐想深入到每一个小镇中的人们。他们是人类在月球留下足迹的见证者,同时又不乏对日常生活的点滴记录,有抠门为省钱想尽办法的父亲,有变着花样为大家做各种美食的母亲,还有打闹争抢玩具的兄弟姐妹,有极具年代感的电影、黑白电视和各种桌游。导演将这些生活点滴融合到太空时代的童年中,颇有共鸣!
不是一个靠激动人心的冒险故事驱动的电影,Stan幻想中的秘密登月计划只占了非常小的部分
we are all together on this floating blue ball in space, somehow it still seems like a dream...
人类的记忆很奇特,就算是因为睡去而错过重要时刻,但回想起来依然觉得自己亲眼所见。那些肆意玩乐,追逐电视剧听流行音乐的童年往事真是单纯而快乐。

“只要我还能够行走,只要我还能够张望,只要我还能够呼吸,就一直走向前方。
Michal Lisowski的场景画的太好了。

虽然电影不是纪录片,但也试图间接感受一下那边的氛围。军队、民兵、雇佣兵、特种兵交错在一起,还要消化一下才行。。。
内部的矛盾被外部势力利用,又推动内部的不断割裂,真觉得乌克兰人应该自己好好想想。
3.5星吧,其实挺喜欢的,原来我们的8/90年代是美国的6/70年代,而且高度相似、满满的回忆杀。我看的不太连贯和投入,给自己扣0.5星
黎明日落午夜的话痨导演,这部很好看,有着青春片特有的阳光明媚的伤感,一个真伪不重要的故事,牵扯着一个美国的黄金年代,缠绕,发展,无边无际。
电影血肉模糊的呈现了一场发生在地球另一边的战争。
过于血腥,过于真实。真正的战争非常恐怖。由于字幕乱七八糟,其实看的迷迷糊糊
