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.
对于贾玲来说已经很好了，但对于电影本身来说，还是略显粗糙，也许是因为年代久远的关系吧！
3.5星。期待值过高发现其实不到8分的水平呀，撞上这个话题倒是掩盖了一些毛病，另外营销有点过，逆反了。（算是还不错的国产电影～
明明知道贾玲的情感是真的，然而我始终没法共鸣。反倒是一些戏，知道是假定的情形，反而容易代入。戏假情真习惯了，碰到这种戏真情真的戏，反而有些不好承受，不是感动，而是压抑，觉得贾玲宣泄了情绪，纪念了母亲，挺好一件事情。但又隐隐觉得这40亿票房，未必是她想要的。
太戳泪点了，很有创意，穿越回去让妈妈开心，实际上妈妈也穿越回去并配合女儿，最后贾玲哭得太打动人了，这母女情啊
这也能拉到钱还能挣到钱，真是行业和市场的悲哀。
就电影来说，总体有点过誉了，但作为新人导演，4⭐值得
觉得感动的点是 焕英在重走一遍人生的时候选择了同一条路 “一箪食 一瓢饮 在陋巷 人不堪其忧 回也不改其乐” 电影四星 第五颗星是他对我的意义
带妈妈一起看的，妈妈也是国营厂的车工，也有一个老是爱喊她大名的女儿。反转后真的完全无法自控地哭得稀里哗啦，然后给妈妈递了一张纸巾。出来后妈妈说，是有点感动但没有哭，是你递给我纸巾我才想哭。贾玲处理细节蛮好的，各种喜剧桥段也很好笑23333
作为电影来说技法和叙事自然是稚嫩与平常的，但它足够真挚、诚恳、勇敢和动人，可以从中感受到创作者的温度。尤其在这个档期，于正常制作的标准上，认真和善良成为最服众的作品根基，本片都做到了。观众为其付出的情感是值得的，贾玲不仅让我们从中看到了她，也让我们从中看到了自己。
最美的不是重回青春的艳阳天，而是渐渐为你变作中年妇女的屋檐。只是分明是两个人共同的心愿，为何要留一个人独自健康快乐的承诺。
诚意很足的一部影片 情节基本都能圆回来 80年代的质感也做到了 四星没问题 为贾玲加多一星
虽然结尾还是有点煽情过度
电影没让我哭。但看完电影后隔壁7岁左右的小男孩因被电影感触抱着妈妈哭泣让我忍不住泪目。
现在电影只分好和不好了吗，说中规中矩被骂了，慕名去看了，没有吹得那么神，泪点高，没哭，被喷了，大过年的一定要哭吗，还有什么时候看哭成为了衡量电影好差的标准了。
虽然说最后反转当下没想到，但想想都是那个套路，可只有反转没用啊，前面都散架了。
镜头里假丽丽已经磕出了血，
得知真相的我眼泪掉下来，那一段太好哭了😭我和我妈两个人都哭😭😭😭
搞笑一般般，感动是还行。裤子有一处bug，夕阳西下时裤子已经缝过，但还是没有缝的样子。反转很戳泪点，但后面连续不断让玲儿看到她之前没有注意到的画面，多余又刻意。当然，为了省钱下车，李焕英走在大雪纷飞的马路上，让每个人都能想到自己的妈妈——每一个母亲都是这样，最好的都给了孩子。
3.5星，前半部分剧情零碎拖沓，让我很难带入，3 星基础分，0.5分打给后半部分妈妈跟小玲一起穿越回去的设计。
我收回之前的怀疑：因为，真心给自己母亲拍一部电影，顺便拿几十亿票房这件事太牛逼了，真的。
