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.
典型的披着国内国外合作外衣的“国内资本+国外团队”的片子，无论是故事架构、形象设计乃至剧情把控上，都是国外玩的很娴熟的套路，可能国内方面把控最多的是如何植入中国元素（包括一些烂大街的梗）吧。但是仅就内容来说，主要角色形象设计很讨喜，剧情有一定的铺垫和反转，观影全程是比较欢乐的，美中不足是植入了太多中式互联网烂俗的梗，让全片的台词有点油腻…
211118 没想到是华谊的作品 但是编剧是老外 神奇组合 菲拉萌真的super cute 甜甜圈圆滚滚看着很好rua 就是很简单的剧情 但是那么可爱的狗狗居然是反派！不能忍 也太坏了 而且坏到了结尾 难受
最后的感情戏以及环形蛋duck不必。。实在不科学，虽然动画片不用讲究科学，但起码讲点逻辑。
场景设定一度让我以为是国产制作，疑惑了下风格怎么这么好莱坞。一看主创果然还是洋人制作
本片适合40岁左右的中年妇女集体观看，建议以后电影分级制加上年龄。布拉德皮特算是唯一亮点。
我是带儿子看的，我比较喜欢，儿子还是喜欢大耳朵图图，可能比较贴近孩子的形象
桑德拉布洛克已经快60了，居然还和塔图姆演冒险爱情，话说这部根本就不是探险寻宝的题材，因为一点机关和宝物都没，寻宝迷请避坑。
出乎意料的精彩，本来就是一个儿童动画片，轻松欢快有趣才是第一选择，不用拿大人的眼光来衡量，六岁的孩子看的哈哈大笑，国语配音也很精彩。
三星半。没看过原著随便看的…好痛的电影、天呐 (晚上眼睛总是模糊好烦
伤痛，对立，理解，释怀，拥抱更广大的天地。
中配真的挺加分的，要给中国的小孩子看，某种意义上来说中配就是必须的，而且我觉得完成得不错
比我想象中好看诶，还有一些科普历史的内容
假期炎热中午消磨的，一般般。孩子笑得很大声
比起荷兰弟冒险记，这部的寻宝有趣多了，难度也比较大，甚至喜剧元素也更高明，可能桑姐长得就是一副喜剧脸，说的话跟动作都很容易令人发笑（尤其我笑点低），而且，她还是动作片出道的咧。当然，需要感情需要认真的时候，桑姐还是可以认真，可以感动到观众的。皮特哥和桑姐到底合作过什么作品啊，友情可以好到大家一起去客串另一人制片的电影？是一个很妙，我很喜欢的组合。
少男少女通过性互相陪伴度过了一段压抑的时光，当他们体会产生更强烈情感的时候，也是他们分别之时，可以独自前行继续成长了。
把布拉德皮特都逼成了神经病。。。
太好看了，牛逼，这样的日系青春片，再来几部
可爱是可爱，但剧情多少有些混乱。冲着配音演员去的，听出了姜sir和马正阳就可以了。
我们都被浪打翻过，不过我们都又站起来了…看似一样的学习环境 可成长都很私人化
周末看动画电影，真是好时光。看着看着，觉得拍的还挺幽默有趣的，不错不错啊。
