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.
虽然pc得不能再pc了 但是欧美校园题材真的是怎么拍难看不到哪去
我个人是很喜欢蕾倍尔，她在喜剧类型里发挥度很高，特别是《完美音调》系列片！其实本片角色调性与《完美音调》角色调性有些许类似，也可能欧美人对于情感表达方式差不多，也跟角色本人性格接近！推荐给高考后同学们看看，不要理会成绩，先图一乐，记得看彩蛋喔！
一星为Justin，一星为减重之后的Wilson
还不错，感觉很久没看过这种轻松舒适的喜剧了，基本没有反派，每个角色都莫名其妙的可爱
居然不算烂 还挺中规中矩的 很有活力的一部片

真的对美国高中拉拉队文化无感，但是看到年轻人自信展现自己的身体和自我还是很值得称赞的
下饭看完。超过35岁也能自信自由发光的人生真好
把人摔成这样不用负法律责任也太离谱了吧，前面情节好无聊，后面还算有趣点
现在的美国青春校园片教育色彩越来越重了，和美国派时代不同了哈哈哈哈哈
看完这片怀念小甜甜、席琳迪昂，比较轻松的剧，但是各方面一般，
90年代观众的另类重温吧，好喜欢里面的大家，希望我也可以那么精彩，as gay!
比较纯正的Americans精神，最近很少见了，值得4星
不管别人怎么说，就冲着千禧年美式校园喜剧和懒妮的情怀也给五星
女主真的瘦好多啊，开Uber的是独领风骚女主吧，快五十了还是甜妹啊！
90年代观众的另类重温吧，好喜欢里面的大家，希望我也可以那么精彩，as gay!
有点虎头蛇尾了，不过还是挺适合下班后看看的。#喜剧 #90sPop
2022年第47部：男主演技太差，人物性格转变太尴尬。
