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.
暴躁、偏执、情绪化，Jake 能别再演这样的角色了吗。
吉吉演技简直无敌了 剧情逻辑啥的有bug看着不舒服比如为什么那个Henry一直没拿走她的手机就任由她打电话 好奇怪
7.5
落魄之人和落魄之人相互拯救的故事。最后在卫生间里怒脸拍，杰克·吉伦哈尔太秀演技了！
臺譯 I《接線追緝》
这演员阵容就让老吉演了个独角戏，相比原版，老吉的表演倒是让我觉得有点意思了
全程杰哈独角戏，99.9％的场景都在接线室，成本够低了。剧情也算是跌宕起伏，有逆转，两星半吧。
前半截演技还在线，后半截敷衍至极…粗制滥造的改编
本来想打两星的，打的时候，一想这拍的什么东西，全程看不下去，想犯困！剧情也是莫名其妙，稀里糊涂的，全靠观众脑补，直接一星垃圾不送
没看过原来的片子，但是就这转折直接扣住了主题我给一百分。结尾给了个圆满结局其实对joe坦白认罪比较没有信服力，应该女人死了婴儿ICU更有寓意。
这根本不是珠玉在前的问题，而是这个改编完全就是零蛋水平的问题。
三星半。Jake的独角戏，全程只有他，还拉特写怼脸拍，观众只能靠他的表演和电话那头声音来判断故事的推展，基本处于和接线员一样的视角，有意思。Jake真的演什么都很稳。
对比丹麦版的高冷，好莱坞版明显感情充沛、外露。
Jake is a smoothly performant who created the intensity of the film just by himself..
没看丹麦版，但是美国人搞这种，只有形式感的紧张，往里一层的，关于人的善与暴虐，痛苦与误解，甚至是自私和心碎，都浮粉在表皮里，能理解却其实无法理解。
活埋，洛克，罪人。这三部电影叙事与演员的表现真的是完美了，并且这也是相对可低成本实现度高的题材。通过大量的对白一句句将故事描绘出来，这类影片必须通过强有力戏剧冲突来调动观众情绪，这也是此类题材吸引我的地方。
原版靠着打call硬生打出来的画外空间，构建了虽然尽显聪明劲，但还算可以的戏剧张力，而福奎阿非要连个叠化的现场实录实在是自打自脸地蠢到没边，而老吉这从多年提名但不得奖的便秘中挤出来的演技也让人没眼看，最掉价的莫过于生生硬蹭了一把公民弗洛伊德跪杀案，一感动就救赎了，如此傲慢的福奎阿，是不是以为自己是个山竹人上帝？
男主角脑子有病，报警女是个疯子，听的我想打人
愿意给老吉多打一点分，我完全同意关于他这个主角背景设定上一些不合理，但演技是真的可以。从joe这个人物身上分离出的两种形态，家庭破碎官司缠身压力垮塌及对自己人格的潜在质疑衍生的暴躁和赎罪倾向塑造了这个一心做好事但处处其实用理智思考都在危及别人安全。机位定点的切换和适时的特写算处理的比较恰当，除去一直处在一种紧张状态后期有点疲惫都好。打动我的可能还是觉得只有算好人的人会意识到自己的guilt
为什么评分没有7？？？哎
