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.
太难受了，真的太难受了，有一幕我的眼泪瞬间就冲出来了，影片结束缓了好几分钟，学院是因为觉得sandra理所应当这么精彩所以今年才不给她提名的吗？
陈词滥调哈哈，Sandra Bullock一如既往的Poker face。
心想更适合拍当下所谓“电影感”的美剧，结果发现人家是美剧改编的。整个状态像是桑婆10年前拿小金人时的状态，现在看来非常过时。欧洲导演并没有增加艺术性，反而增加了欧洲艺术电影套路的无聊。
最震撼的甚至不是电影本身，是电影结束后的那三行字幕。
全剧浸透着悲凉，无助的感觉，桑德拉的演技无可挑剔，发自内心的悲苦，面无表情的苍凉，寻找亲人的焦灼都表现的很出色。
最后的拥抱，你我都回到了那一天，回到一切都美好的时候。

复仇剧 女主策划绑架，只为见总理，以自身为视角揭露印度强奸的严重性
几天前刚看过《印度女孩》，对比那北部泰米尔的贫瘠守旧，此片里的孟买则是国际都市即视感～主角们都讲英文用水果设备玩转社交媒体，居所也明丽时尚……但是，主题都聚焦在当代女性的倔强抗争。从影片的故事讲述和情节铺排上有很多技术性不足，但为立意的果决鼓掌，让拼命才能发声的历程不能白白血淋淋地惨痛。
How I feels
逻辑上最完美的地方在于：女教师的主要目的，是要杀掉or揭发当年的强奸犯，防止他再次犯罪。
女性平权问题任重道远啊
还凑合吧！说实话印度电影总是拍这么长真没必要，乏了。
立意还行但是女主演技太差，剧情也不丝滑，浪费我时间
第一次感受印度片拍出了香港警匪片的节奏，印度的女性人权问题确实是老大难了，影片结尾的希望之光希望不仅仅只存在于影视剧中。
8 women have been raped in our country.
整部电影如此真实的设定，不得不让吃瓜群众深思中心思想到底是个啥？doge
印度是个奇怪的民族，一方面很有信仰，一方面又践踏善良。
这简直是泯灭人性
媒体家人家长警察几个身份并没有从不同角度起到任何作用 无聊
