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.
近年来，好莱坞商业片出现了一个新的片种与变体——油腻片。这类电影不是认真讲述一个故事，而是在插科打诨、打情骂俏与油腔滑调、油嘴滑舌中插入一个故事，就像在广告中插入电影一样，偏离了主题，脱离了主干。
无聊的冒险、生硬的爱情、流水账的叙事、神经质的反派、一惊一乍的演技、隔靴搔痒的笑点，名副其实工业流水线拼凑出的敷衍之作，没有一处不老套的情节，没有一处不尴尬的画面，要动作没动作，要笑点没笑点，猎奇程度甚至比不上迪士尼的《丛林奇航》，只能靠布拉德·皮特的客串勉强支撑片刻。
其实可以算三星半。皮特笑死我，很合适！！中间剖析过去的地方，竟然还让我有点感动，现代小鸡片已经不是“万能”男主拯救女主了，是一起努力活下去了吗，倒也是蛮好的hhhh
brad连声音都那么性感 梦中情人了属于。钱老板的肉体还是可以的…桑婆和ryan还是更配一点 可能这个nerd一点的形象确实更适合Ryan 可惜没档期啊…本来期待剧本是一个有点类似国家宝藏和地心历险记的剧本 结果是绑架 解密就一步
算合格的类型片吧，除了满脸玻尿酸的女主和查宁真不搭，布拉德的2次出场和便当让我很惊喜，全片没那么差，但是确实不够好。。。消遣看看还可以的
真的不太好笑，迷失之城和宝藏部分又如此缺乏想象力，正反派都没有魅力，唯一好看的也就是那个屁股了
没头脑和不高兴，只是这次是情侣CP，轻松诙谐还是可以一看的。
冒险，谈情，搞笑。没一样有拍好。。。。电影1/3后就变无聊

“你就像个人类木乃伊……”
除了PP戏，没什么亮点，查宁塔图姆演技好尬。
我对寻宝电影真的很宽容。。只要能把故事讲清楚就行。。因为夺宝才是真正满足一切想法的电影。。
看到皮特出现我瞬间坐直了身子，爱了：）两个人扛着把椅子抬女主逃命的时候真的太好笑了！！！
格式都对但就是不再有惊喜和乐趣。这就是此类型现在的困局。桑德拉真就演这种驾轻就熟，保有魅力。
哈哈哈哈什么玩意儿看一乐呵有些反讽暗语但很没意思也很低级……不过要说的是女人当家作主站起来了！不再是60岁的007配20岁小嫩妞儿了！咱妇女在50多的时候也能把到小鲜肉！这大臂膀子！这大翘屁深股沟子！谁看谁不迷糊！只是皮特龙套跑得太干脆……以及很多陈家班打斗场景……乌鱼子…所以这是在致敬复古吗……
皮特的戏份最好笑蛤蛤蛤蛤蛤蛤....钱老板42岁的teenage（。一直感觉他还是龙虎少年队那个比，但是桑德拉布洛克有点敷衍了
总有一种桑德拉布洛克和布拉德皮特努力扶哈利波特的感觉
不错，还是挺搞笑的，就是这个彩蛋有啥含义吗？第二部？
有趣在各个主演的风格上，还有插科打诨上，剧本感觉稍微逊色点
典型取悦女性观众的电影，查宁和皮特都是充当花瓶的，丹尼尔饰演的大反派人设都是蠢萌蠢萌的。女主塞琪聪明又性感，不再是等待男主来救的傻白甜，合格的爆米花电影。
