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.
非常出色的动作戏剧片，女主演技不错，成功扮演了一个硬汉。
我很喜欢。墨西哥城的柔情就像杂货店女孩，亲缘感、欢歌，明媚、海浪、洗刷一切。底层的暴乱又像生活，罅隙、冷漠、自私、肿瘤。我很能理解男主。
观感意外还不错，不要试图理解他们究竟在想什么，因为他们是富二代。
略微沉重，有那么点蝴蝶效应的味道，一言一行都注定了后来的惨剧。感觉好像没做错，又觉得好像都错了。
#TIFF21，一个富二代对自我存在的寻找之旅，和《新秩序》本质上其实是一样的，都在探讨不同阶级之间的差异，以及对富人家庭里的内部矛盾进行探讨，当一个富二代从厌倦了富人的生活开始到放弃了令人羡慕的富人生活，看似表面毫无波澜的情绪之下，是对这个时代的厌恶。如同《新秩序》
总的来说算是不错的小结构动作爽片，设定很好，节奏不拖沓，全程无尿点，就是拍摄上还是差了点意思。
45/ 电影名字我很喜欢 生命终结的时候就像sundown平静又绚烂 名利金钱甚至家人也不再那么重要了 只是平静的做喜欢的事情喝酒做爱享受这世界最后的阳光
跟Chronic一样胡编一个结尾，强行结束。资本的光鲜与血腥在瞬间切换。
很精彩的电影…建议看原片！不过观看这种类型片子可能会引起一些老铁的反感吧……总之呢，我个人还是绝对这片子很不错，值得一看！！！！
开头用镜和色彩都很吸引人，剧情弱爆，格局小了 2022年1月3日 rs pro2
【一个吻引发的血案】露西亚娜曾为一位著名小说家工作，因为作家的一次冲动，强吻了露西亚，羞愧的女主告知了母亲，随后被告。却因为传票被身患忧郁症的妻子看到。从而酿成妻子女儿自杀身亡的噩耗。而拿到200万和解费的露西亚一家开心的前往海边独家，随即噩耗将诶二连杀的发生。她确信家人的悲惨死亡由此人一手策划，于是求助一名记者揭露事情的真相……
影片并无宏大感和深刻性，但自始至终总萦绕着一股压抑感，上一次听到海浪声感觉如此压抑还是海边的曼彻斯特。
活个寂寞，远离尘嚣，遁入虚无罢了。★★★/6.5
其实还挺有可看性的。一个极有耐心的作家花了十几年的时间慢慢折磨女主，就因为他会错了意。
波兰New Horizions 2022。 这片子也太瑞典了哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈。如果有的选，所有人都想处在感性的爽了就行的阶段。
泰迪得罪了狠人，几波杀手轮番杀到。走投无路之下他故意袭警打算去警察局里避避风头，没想到各路杀手嚣张得硬闯了警察局。
“听RED不是必然是《有心论》和《两个人》嘛”
在他用尽一切形式后显得是如此刻意而矫揉造作
跟想象中差距很大，一开始以为是中年男人危机所以出轨Yolo，结果是确诊了癌症。但他的面对机制是找一个墨西哥年轻女人玩儿？我真的不太能理解。
残酷的诗意。有些人追求的极致的艺术就是他人的痛苦。想想希特勒，他就是一个美术系落榜生呀
