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.
催泪，硬催，不哭不是人的那种。还是有很多镜头是老谋子独有的镜头美学。
只知身前名，莫解身后事。我们只知道成功的北野武和他好看的作品，却不知道他有这样一个成就他的师傅和他那段艰难奋斗的经历。追求梦想的路上，有的人向生活低头而放弃，有的人在坚持。坚持的人或胜或败，放弃的人也并非失败，多归于平凡。时代在变，人心在变，一味固守，恐怕要被淘汰。铃木做艺伎受欢迎？未免年纪太大了吧。柳乐优弥表演的北野武竟真有几分神似。
大年初一看的第一部电影、章宇的演技真的没得说、很感人！值得一看！最后五连依然在！
很好看，有某些场景比较拖沓，立flag的tactic稍有点点明显+老套，但作为狙击手片算是很好看的了！
节奏和角度都还不错的。就是突然插进的几小段主旋律有点违和感
温情感人但编织的魅力平平。有几个桥段有点煽情过头，最后一段完全画蛇添足。几个主演都演得挺好的。門脇麦让人惊艳。
张泽没超过3分钟镜头 章居然当主演了 原来是老乡 难怪说长得像一个球友
还是很动人的师徒情，对这类刻画小人物又拍的很细腻的日本电影从来没抵抗力。柳乐优弥是真帅，也是真的不像北野武…虽然蛮喜欢他的但是说实话演技和演师傅的那位比起来还是差一截。
2星成片质量+1星致敬先烈，前调起得还行，剧情线该展开的时候，没有深挖或多角度描写，只是简略地单线叙述，导致了正反派各个人物显得很单薄。最重要的是，新兵用一杆机瞄步枪杀穿美军加一辆坦克这段没拍好，可能史实如此，但导演整得就像挂哥开透视与加速一样...
本来开场就觉得肯定是俗气的煽情路线，看到后面还是忍不住感动了，有两点不如意，没有拍出北野武的下流劲儿，老年北野武要是让真人来演就完美了，化妆实在太差，弄的跟国产西游记一样，身材不远不如本人魁梧～
前半段面部表情太刻意看的有点出戏了，1小时后逐渐发力 认真自然(厕所那场戏那个侧脸 瞬间跳戏到无人知晓了) 师徒情的部分非常踏实。不知道是影帝表演的太柔还是剧本过于主打温情 ，想象里这该是个麻辣鲜师对付臭脸酷小子的故事 大泉洋演这类角色还是挺稳的
在这个如此无聊的春节档以及只求激起爱国情绪不在意真实性和作品质量的影视环境下显得如此难能可贵
看的是本地几天来唯一一部夜场排片。老谋子行活，碾压其它主旋律还是没问题的。
但影片总得来说剥离煽情还是差口灵气。
编剧和导演是剧团一人，果然还是要内行人来做。太稀罕柳乐乐了，想不出俳优中坚层还有谁比他更适合演好这一角色的。从14岁拿影帝少年得志，到迅速迷失自我深陷抑郁自杀退圈，再到20代后半段回归，低调结婚生子，如今专注做好演员职——没有这段经历，可能这对眉眼也就磨练不出这样的演技吧。这人生哟，五味杂陈！-喂，你是打翻油盐酱醋瓶了还是怎么着？
喜欢这种场景单一却又把每个人物刻画很深刻，时长也刚刚好，氛围也营造的恰到好处
看的早上9:45的一场，很久没看这么优秀的战争片了！！个人感觉比“长津湖”好看。这部电影讲了一个好故事！
碰巧路过请客吃饭，就算红了也不会让你上，电视内裤角度，红色高跟鞋，已烧一半火葬场打折，“阿武怎么办？”……感觉柳乐优弥演得更像现在的北野武而不是以前的北野武，算是演员二次创作？挺感人
5、片中，柳乐优弥和大泉洋奉献了伟大的表演！
对深见师傅的缅怀还挺让人感动的 年轻的北野武应该不会歪嘴脸抽搐吧 那股流氓痞劲儿却并没出来 老年版要是本尊出演多好 化妆搞得特可怕
