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.
一部全靠男女主撑起来的电影。全钟瑞真的太灵了！
谢谢，现在的我很需要这样的鼓励。希望每个当下不如意的人们都能有勇气保持自己的初心。加油！
爱死全钟瑞了 片子本来也没抱太大期待 还行吧
我可太喜欢孙锡九了，整个人儿都特松弛，只可惜故事太过拉垮，只能从几段男女主快速对话中瞥见导演还是有些幽默在身上的。
孙锡久让我明白了，即使是单眼皮的小眼睛，也可以眉目传情～ 他们第二次约会吃饭那里，CP感真的太强了，为俗套的剧情加了分。
题材比较特别。相对来说有些露骨？现实？还是色情？不好说。
打性爱十九禁擦边球，爱情探讨又比较浅显，属于那种两头都不占的本子
题材有点新奇，但还是有点意思，不过最重要还是得人好看~
剧情一般。但孙锡久真的好奶啊，太喜欢了😄😄😄全钟瑞不愧是电影咖，力度到位👍👍
很喜欢孙锡久，全钟瑞也不错，但本子真的so boring
果然两个同时古灵精怪个性过强的人凑在一起会毫无火花 / 竟然是喜欢赵寅成那个导演拍的，选角想必是有很多女文青私心了！
SP就只能是SP 搞不拎清的下场就跟和前男友复合一样烦人 30岁就该喝喝该做做 保持距离 别动真格
有当下性的话题，交友软件，先性后爱。但最大的问题是没有给出男主为什么喜欢女主的充分原因，感觉就是睡了然后就自然喜欢上了。氛围也没有营造出心动的感觉。
可能生活很难。有趣的灵魂很少。但终会有那个人是你的。
男主女主的演员我都很喜欢 但是这个电影好像有点一般
是个在一月份电影大灾难时不错看的传记片。故事线流畅，看完又懂了点橄榄球。
俗套爆米花电影，想讨论一些议题却又走向罗曼史。
适合用来消遣的下午茶甜点，就是那种有时候需要看一下的小片。男女主演都很喜欢！！两人挺搭的其实。不过故事就真俗套啦。他们俩要是最后不在一起我是真的会伤心哈哈哈。可能我还是那么幼稚和保守吧！
这是一部美国草根的爱情故事，影片的结尾确实让人兴奋，回归了运动励志电影的本性，也为这位草根英雄致敬。
感觉翻译影响了我的观影体验。两个主角也太合适了，感觉如果男主不是孙锡久这个男人就没有说服力
