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.
虽然还是流水线的传记片，但不同声音的查斯坦太可爱了。
竟然是根据一部纪录片改编的故事片，二位70-80年代在美国出名的宗教布道电视人的起落故事，女主从20岁演到老年，又唱又演，痴迷执着，给40多岁的“劳模姐”（豆瓣影迷为她起的外号）提供了个太好地展示平台，获得今年奥斯卡最佳女主演的小金人实至名归！
毁童年系列啊，哆啦a梦的电影，真是那几个大长篇，翻来覆去拍一遍就20年了。不太喜欢人物造型，不过传达的信息是可以播的嘛？
这次终于也轮到劳模姐了，实至名归。
兩個熱愛人熱愛宗教的人，他們也是善良的；只是不夠純粹罷了。世界對他們太殘忍，他們是認真地付出了這麼多。終究是錯付了。這個該死的世界。
这让我想到了王小帅的那个天才地久，无聊的故事，惊人的演技！加菲是本色出演吗？劳模姐太强大了，今天看了coad那么温馨的人，又看这么做作的！好分裂的一天！
劳模姐的表演绝对值得一座小金人，在这部电影里，你完全找不出她在以往作品的表演痕迹，一点都找不出。再加上出色的特效妆，我真的会恍惚这个到底是Jessica还是Tammy。
哦吼，第一次在电影院看哆啦A梦 这部感觉还阔以。
哎呀…2022年实至名归，给他妈妈买那件大衣让我哭了好几遍。
纯为了捧女主角的电影，并不好看，而且逻辑很混乱
比想象中好看许多 女主角（以及原型）感染力也太强了叭
拍的像小孩子过家家，演员自己在说台词的时候真的是尬的不行，劳模姐再演这样的东西，迟早得废了！
劳模姐蛮好,中老年这个妆真是绝了，加菲也不错,老戏竟然不违和，但他凑俩在一起就太不搭了。
感觉好碎啊 什么都想讲但什么都没仔细讲 看得我想睡觉
非常有感染力的人物形象 看的时候完全记不起劳模姐本身样子了
一流的化妆技术
超齡兒童每年六一嘅特備節目，睇叮噹大電影。對比起上年，感覺劇情更貼合六一兒童節，也因為係經典重製過，劇情除了加入現代化細節改動之外總體方向改動唔大，就係果種出品穩定嘅年貨作品。最後加一星，係因為某句口號以及外星小朋友果個問題，希望可以作為一點點火種，埋係細路仔嘅心中
6.2 他们要是诞生在现在，大概率是彻底失去良心的卡戴珊家族
看“信”会让看的人得到宁静，宗教的事还是很难说，有时愚蠢有时有趣，不过宗教学竟然还是二级学科，说明不信者依旧众多，或许是件好事，who knows，3.5
