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.
一边欲求不满，有心无力，另一边极情纵欲，放荡不羁，所以要么压抑到变态，要么放纵到死亡。
到底错过了哪里？我怎么没看懂女主和叶子的关系？
没看过原著，雪国景色好美，有机会看看原著吧
非典型爱恨情仇 世间万物都是徒劳 却不愿就此沉沦
把小雪的剧情给那些日式印象描写还敬导演是条汉子。
作为一部SP拍得还算精致。九十分钟的最后三分之一通过日记来复述一遍，手法太笨。高桥的长脸和乱发实在不适合演岛村。
双视角还蛮有意思的，仿佛解迷。奈绪好美啊，高桥在这里面演得让人失望。
艺伎回忆录吗；行男果然还是不太行；鬼唱鬼叫90分钟；万恶的蒙太奇
因为评分太低而超出预期，非常是我的菜，姑且名之为“文学式电影”。要论表现寂寞，从文学到电影，还得看日本。画面、服装都很美，构图讲究，那些服装纹饰太好看了。奈绪真可以继承苍井优的戏路了，长得像表情像选的角色也像。高桥桑那张脸，越来越沧桑了……
第一次觉得益生菌如此不适合这个角色，完全神游的感觉，奈绪倒是意外地耀眼，尤其后面日记部分。
前往雪国寻找驹子却在火车上用手指记住了叶子的岛村；在车站等候行男却被现实打击走入岛村怀抱的驹子；照顾行男直至他生命终点却发现自己是驹子替身的叶子；还有在隐晦记述中，那个追寻驹子却发现驹子在“赎身恩人”身边，深爱驹子却拥抱叶子的行男。而当自恃看清一切的岛村等待拥抱火场前痛哭的驹子给予她安慰时，却发现自己也走在一条徒劳的情感上，因为驹子也并没有把他当作精神支柱，他也只是一个虚假的情感替身
前半段都是什么牛头人剧情，老太太想年轻时候想的魔怔了吧，通篇下来低级的想笑，不过一些惊吓点做的倒不错
何となく好きで、その時に、好きだっと言わなかった方は、いつまでも懐かしい。
不要浪费150分钟的时间【铃木大哥 一个西乡和近藤无缝切换的男人 斋藤一不错啦
有点可惜，编剧偷懒了，导致过于文学化。大部分时候都在注意念白，而忽略了在演些什么。
搞不懂驹子和叶子的关系，也无法理解剧中人物的行为和反应，驹子经常咬牙切齿的歇斯底里的
2022-04-23
剧情有点像寡淡的白开水，看得昏昏欲睡。奈绪+1星，三味线是真弹，人物塑造得太好了，成为艺妓前的单纯可爱和扮成艺妓时的成熟妩媚，面对行男与叶子的前后不同态度，奔向火场时的勇敢果断
菉竹山房血腥版 除了很多奇奇古怪的致敬以外，最后结尾处是真正搞笑了一把
名著没有拍出真正的神韵。驹子不够楚楚可人吧。驹子和叶子的复杂的感情看得好别扭。
