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.
要有女同，要有有色人种，给你辆自行车要不要？啧。
挺过瘾的，刚看了韩国的犯罪都市2，还真是抄袭了这个的公交车片段，不错
艾米汉莫不行啊……布拉纳还是那么喜欢给自己加戏
没想到2022年竟然还能看到那么假的背景合成
5分差不多吧 开头结尾是不是因为剪完发现不够用了补拍的啊
爱会让人疯狂，爱会让人不惧生死，爱会让人杀人。留心观察到了一些细节，错过了一些细节，想过或许最不可能的人就是犯人，但确实没想到是这样的实施方式。
《导火线》的大陆版，在网大里算是不错了。可惜了谢苗，能力啥的真不差，就是没资源。
故事还算利索、生动，在网大里是高水准了，打的也还行。
armie hammer咋变这么丑了 枉我之前那么迷恋他
看了还不错，毕竟现在这种拳拳到肉的电影越来越少了。
原来侦探是导演本人扮演的。。。怪不得戏份和台词给的偏多了，这部没有过去那几部同名电影编辑的华丽，虽然也有游轮和漂亮的装修，但奢侈氛围的渲染还是差了一大截，没有之前版本的那种雍容华贵。
一般。剧情老套。比较尴尬的就是人在电影里是无限的耐受力，打多久都不会累，受多少伤都不疼。。
摄影很不错。
这故事设定是二战前吧，怎么还在金字塔上玩《北非谍影》的经典酒馆台词哏…不过比台词更违和的是演员们。
阿加莎老奶奶特殊爱情的小迷妹啊，影片整个前半段就是英伦穿衣小百科。
神奇女侠、《傲骨之战》女主、《老友记》Emily的妈、锤哥、《性教育》女主……这么多优秀的、知名的演员，拍出来个这？男主你不说是侦探我还以为是咆哮帝呢😅
哎您好，我是李红旗，是一名人民警察。…… →「海龟先生」乐队主唱李红旗在另一个平行世界的故事。……
前面背景交代略长，超过1小时吧。倒是埃及风光挺好
谢苗演的警察还真有股子劲儿~周围有认识的朋友当警察的，经常有人会说警察就是持证的流氓，我是觉得这份职业的特殊性，别说缉毒扫黑的了，哪怕是派出所的，要是指望着温良恭俭让迎来送往的，那恐怕还是去派出所门口摊煎饼更合适~片子的故事比较简单，拍的还挺用心，bug还是有的，比如整了这么个看着挺牛的APP，那大冬天的还搞啥线下啊，直接线上赌不就完了么~
打戏比目中无人拍得好，很值得看，至于其他的剧情，可以稍微跳过一下
