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.
小飞女长大后成为一名护士，且成了正能量标兵。可谓“女大十八变”。
对于新冠很真实的写照，讲一个故事，记录一段事件，拍的真好。长镜头+虚焦把焦虑和无助完全表现，朱迪演技真棒！今年已经好几部大片了，大火！
这是所看第一部以新冠为背景的电影。
平凡而伟大的工作。冠状病毒搞的世界鸡飞狗跳。但起源可能永远是个迷，因为这不是简单的技术问题。这是目前看到的反映新冠病毒为数不多的电影之一
COVID-19
211102@ 蛋蛋赞 No one told us. Am I going to be OK?I am so sorry, but no one is coming. Good man, very rare, everywhere.相比某国的电影；万岁！杀手演看护，除了这一点，别的都很好
这是我看的第一部新冠相关题材的影剧，片中许多的片段，都让人回想起两年前新冠爆发时，亲历过的恐惧和无奈的心境。西方百姓对疾病防控的认知和我们并没有大不同，只是他们更关注「个人」而不是「国家」罢了。
当疫情平稳下来，我们往往会忽视疫情初期，那些身在最严重的情形下经历崩溃和绝望的人以及他们的感受，还有无数的人永远离我们而去。
我愿意用看dont look up的时间再看一次help
艰难又勉强的看了个大概，因为朱迪科默永远定格在KE里了，斯蒂芬格拉汉姆又似乎还在浴血黑帮里…害。
绝望的午夜这场戏朱迪·科默演得真好，只是结局的出逃有点突然... 三星半
演技真好
中間拯救Kenny一段長鏡頭有張力，電視電影都如此有勁
热泪盈眶，酸楚的眼泪。灾难之下，人道主义被国家机器拆分成冷冰冰的优先级，处在高优先级的人们——我们，在和平时期不费力地怜悯他人，这时候也紧抓着既得资源无暇他顾。when did our lives stop being worth the same？有几人能没有羞愧地正视这句话？
被遗忘的他们，or被选择性抛弃（战略性放弃？）的疗养院，我们习惯了feel sorry for them unlucky people，但却没有付诸行动。
国内应该引进这部啊，多好的宣传:NHS就是屎，CCP天下无敌！
齐具社会价值和艺术价值的一个好片
女主角不错，下面评论说得好，接受一下迂回的主旋律。
听小变态说英式英语真的变扭啊，有点用力过猛。
后三十分钟的剧本太过潦草突兀，直接削弱了整部电影的感染力，很可惜
