Constantly on the hunt and suffering from hallucinations that drive his violent nature, an unnamed man is capturing women and savagely beating them to death. Meanwhile, a woman is luring men into a violent end, by way of her knife. Driven by the same force to make the opposite sex suffer, the killers’ fates intertwine. The two must face off in a battle to the death, in which they are forced to reveal the horrible truth behind their addiction to murder.
“Brutal” takes an interesting approach to its visuals, drawing heavy influence from Western “Grindhouse” films, using a filter to make the footage appear grainy, damaged, and with light and color fluctuations. Unfortunately, the visual styling ends up feeling misguided, as other than applying the filter it does not imitate any other aspects of the “Grindhouse” genre. Despite trying to dirty up the film, it is apparent it was shot on digital. The cinematography is also a step above most “Grindhouse” productions, with Takashi Hirose proving he has talent behind the camera. Exterior shots to those taking place in small spaces are all competently framed, lit, and transition well. The decision to add an effect on top of the work hurts the film’s imagery and even gives a sense of desperation to try to capture a certain type of nostalgia with the audience, instead of relying on its own strengths. It is unfortunate when one creative choice can hurt a production so much.
The story of “Brutal” is simple but effective, it does attempt some sort of social commentary about the violent nature of men and women, but it does not offer enough depth into the subject to justify the amount of violence on display. The film does end on a strong note with an interesting twist, with a reveal that is bound to gross some out, while giving others a chuckle. In spite of its simple nature, those who enjoy films that make them somewhat uncomfortable and enjoy the challenge of getting through some ultra-violence, “Brutal” poses a fun and entertaining challenge in that regard.
简单、粗暴，没那么多花花肠子，美式传统野蛮人。
BE，不开心(｡•ˇ‸ˇ•｡)。剧情没咋看，一直划划划，无非就是讽刺掌权者以及追寻自由那一套。两人的互动有点少，多点暧昧与互动就好了。还以为是架空题材，最后看到是根据历史事件改编直接惊了。ps，我还是喜欢看小甜甜，这种现实题材的电影不适合我_(:3」∠)_
波兰现在又快要这样了吧，还好及时run了。
一桩谋杀案背后牵扯出的秘密。“做人不能什么都怕，尤其是害怕自由。”
案子查到最后结果发现自己的老爹也是主手之一，不管是否被胁迫。爸妈吵架那段对话倒是一语成缄，究竟是谁软弱？我想在男主拿着枪去追那个要杀男二的时候就已经有了答案，或者说更早，在他不想草草结案的时候……
那天晚上，和你一起在街头飞奔，逃离警察的搜捕，我就知道，我的心已经和你一起逃掉了。
老亨利就是比利小子？就是邦尼？
1920。以1980年代在波兰发生的事件为背景。当年波兰秘密警察在一名男同性恋者被杀害后，以缉凶、防治艾滋病为由，开始大规模调查男同志，感情关系、性爱姿势等癖好都问到底，并将这些数据写进「粉红色档案」；实际上，政府只是假借缉凶来抓住同志的把柄，以利未来进行政治打压。
忍不住打个虚高五星…节奏不慢，前面挺悬疑的，加上语言不通和略微脸盲我一度有点没反应过来发生了什么（。气氛也营造得很好，有些桥段看得人提心吊胆。不过最后揭出来的秘还是比较cliche的那种结果。但问题不大，因为…实在是太好嗑了…昏黄的华沙的夜，无人处突如其来的一吻，好喜欢…船戏拍得好美，油画一样，之前酒吧里的调笑和试探的触碰也好心动…小警察和男大学生，人设以及立场相对的身份让角色从初遇开始就很有张力，揭露坦白的警局审讯戏也因此非常精彩有戏剧性，太揪心了我都不敢看下去…小卷毛狗狗眼男二从第一眼起就很可爱，男主也非常可爱，尽管顶着个奇奇怪怪显老八字胡，但还是清秀又柔软，眼睛真漂亮…压力重重沉默内敛但勇敢善良的小宝，好喜欢。历史题材的影片对于现在的波兰（和其他一些地区）也有现实意义。为了自由与爱。
太配了 要是有个后续该多好 是我一直都想嗑的类型的cp
一部西部片拍出了中國武俠小說的味道，隱世，贖罪，絕世高手，以一敵百。影片氛圍營造很有代入感，配樂配合西部的荒草和淒涼，讓情節推進。最後的反轉蠻有驚喜。
剧情很扁平很无聊，结尾太仓促。
很喜欢！看起来太舒服了，不突兀不刻意缓慢发生。虽然没有把历史事件拍的很清楚很到位甚至有点仓促，但是你就怎么确定这不是通过历史事件而表达爱情的故事呢！很喜欢男主的妈妈，她那句你没有欺骗自己要加半颗星，在那个时代没有谁是希望自己的孩子是那样的，但个人觉得她的态度让男主罪恶感减少了有可以继续走下去的决心。再一次很喜欢！
一个小时了, 才短暂的见过arek在日光下的脸
阴郁的波兰让人看的觉得很压抑 故事总体中规中矩 结尾有些怪异 破案的点感觉也很弱
……
充满了反思
影片结尾我倾向于he——“我不会丢下你一个人走”是甜蜜的承诺，但我们依然要面对警笛声围绕、讨伐肃清四起、无处不压迫的现实。
“做人不能什么都害怕，尤其在为了自由时~” 片长不是112分钟嚒？
“波兰人不喜欢其他波兰人快乐”。充满歧视和举报的那个国家也一样，对～说的就是美国！
