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.
亮点是打戏，拳拳到肉...
故事紧凑，不矫情，不拖泥带水，打斗真实，这才是动作片的态度，五星支持谢苗，加油。
这剧本其实是给好莱坞写的吧……劈里啪啦打得挺欢。
如果龙叔是国际警察在国际大都市破获国际大案的警察故事，那谢苗就是县城警察在县城打击县城无赖流氓的警察故事。故事细节很真实，非常接地气。支持一下。
动作戏可以，有很多剧本漏洞，但胜在节奏够快，懂得以终为始，知道该要什么。比其他大制作贪多嚼不烂的剧本好很多。
很久没有看到这样拳拳到肉行云流水般的打戏了，可惜服化道和后期再跟上就好了
还可以，情节挺简单，动作也比较流畅，这谢苗怎么老了这么多？我对他的印象还停留在《给爸爸的信》那里呢！一下子就长这么大了，有点接受不了！
真挺好看的，比绝大多数院线电影好，谢苗浪费啊，少林十八罗汉就不错
谢苗的又一部，据说第二部已经杀青了，简单的故事情节，不动脑子的时候拿来解闷也挺好的。
挺猛的，招招真实的击打，太久没看到这么猛的动作片，支持
在家看的，还行，就是全局一个人把所有人抓了有点假
剧情一般，个人主义太强了吧，实在不喜欢这种设定啊。但打斗戏我好爱看，太爽了，小谢多来点现代动作片吧。
剧情3分动作戏真能给到8分，哈哈哈哈一看就是剧情粗制滥造的网大～
谢苗绝对是个好的动作演员，但是不知道为啥不火，剧情可以忽略不计，动作戏是亮点，甚至比有的院线电影要好
这电影打斗很精彩，尤其那欠钱的人脑浆子爆出来那一下
动作戏真的不错啊 看着觉得打得实在 拳拳到肉看着很疼 但是其他镜头就很晃 看得人头晕 剧情很简单就一条线 演员也都没什么脸熟的 但几个主角配角都立住了 没有过度美颜没有最美侧脸角度什么的 反而很清新脱俗 3.5星
20211006真的很不错！故事情节简单，但是能讲明白，讲透彻，没毛病，真的很不错了！可以说是良心制作！这比那种动辄好几个亿的国产烂片强太多了！！！
在近几年谢苗出演的各类型网大中，这一部算是为数不多的中等佳作，按照网络电影的标准范畴，影片可以给出80分。
哈哈哈电视上随便点开的，竟然还看完了，一部打打打的爽片，男主挺帅的，一查还是个童星大星，看得出来导演编剧压根没在乎别的，就是爽片完事儿，但问题是，并没有很东北啊，可以随便换个名字“XX警察故事”。
这不推荐？？？片子里面有bug。那个时候好像没有短视频。。
