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.
取景，空镜，色调，视觉语言都让人舒服，导演&摄影有点东西，缺点在于剧情弱且细节少。知青，舞者，文工团...泛黄的岁月的灰尘，永远戳心的题材。我来了，时代却走了。
除了远处的山，飘着的云烟，似乎和远山淡影没什么关系。警察瞧不上画像师、暴躁有能力的老刑警、身份互换式的存亡与复仇，都算是老梗，说不上好，但也不能说它坏。
迟到的正义还算什么正义，拍的颇有迷雾剧场的感觉。
故意拖节奏，剧情藏掖。独白只有气无力没有情绪表达，和剧情配合不佳
是从什么时候开始，大家对国产剧的态度变得这么宽容了？
看完之后一脸懵逼，完全不理解。逻辑漏洞太多。片子太艺术片处理，让人完全不知道故事的重点。而且三个女性完全分不清。导致我满脸???
三星半吧，色调画面很不错，看起来很舒服，就是演技还不太行，演的平平的，故事叙事有点慢，淡淡的感觉……不过作为网大来说算是很有诚意了……
气氛营造的不错，只不过节凑太慢，而且破案过程太简单。但是也是为数不多的真心想拍好的写实悬疑类电影，给个四星鼓励！
演员服化色调运镜都很不错，故事虽然略有bug整体讲的也还不错。至少比很多院线电影甚至连分镜都莫名其妙的好太多了，值得鼓励。几个演员的舞跳的实在是有点抱歉，基本功和芳华的演员差距还是有点大，看得出来演员有努力练过型体了，但最多只是摆好了架子，谈不上是在跳舞，但毕竟不是舞者，作为演员戏还是不错
剧情很不合逻辑。三星给林音的扮演者，气质拿捏绝了

网大身份的电影，制作还是比较细腻的，整体结构、叙事方式都不错呀，结局符合预期。
2022 No.188 / nd / nd Last：目中无人
以为是石黑一雄那个书改编的电影，尼玛吓死我了！！！！又要好几个晚上睡不着了，开头的松鸦枯树旧纸泛黄调我就该来先搜一下豆瓣的！！！

林音，严华，章欣，陈默，沈队，其间的故事纵横交错，特别是林音和严华这亦师亦友的两个人，林音的温柔优雅，严华的重情重义，每个人都有自己的故事，为了梦想，为了生活，终究还是严华延续了林音的生命。
剧情还是很不错，人物也还可以，但是有点疑惑，为什么林死后，被认成女主
看一部好电影挺难得的呀。前面两分钟就吸引人的调调。

镜头真不错，然而人物塑造是个大问题，加了不少剧情笔墨来塑造人物，然而撑不起这样的台词，反而整得人物有点不对味儿
