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.
我实在是被里面复杂的男女关系搞晕了，叫换妻俱乐部吧，不知道导演想表达啥？不找灵魂伴侣，就可以去尝试各种可能性？！我实在做不到！似乎这几对朋友就是认准了互相一样？什么设定？
但是因为对几位主演都好感我还是坚持看完了
韩国温情贺岁片，包含了现实里一切不可能的设想，灰姑娘遇到王子，屌丝男拥抱女神，大龄剩女找到真爱，老情人破镜重圆，经纪人无限付出得到回报，小狼狗求爱秒成，看着平平淡淡比较温馨的感觉，四十岁的人，大爱林允儿。
Julia选的电影，结局也和我们希望的一样
2022年第一部电影。非常标准的工业化合家欢套餐，非常没营养不需要大脑但是元旦看又可以忍受(￣∇￣)……说是韩版《真爱至上》实在过誉了，只能给个及格吧，这个韩国演员阵容还是有些白瞎的。
虽然是老套的剧情，但节日影片来说画面真的好浪漫啊！郭在熔这个老头的浪漫总是很戳我的点。最喜欢老年组，如果下雪就是同意了，我们就在一起吧。
韩志旼和金英光最后那part很老套却又很真实，男生说“并不认为彼此没有坦白心意而变得不幸，我这十五年来，能以朋友的身份在你身边，真的感到很幸福”。有些人错过开口的时机就是真的错过了，旁观者常常笼统的评价“还是不够爱，还是不够勇敢罢了”，但这就是真实的人生啊，友达之上恋人未满，心动是真的，遗憾是真的，放下朝前走也是真的。
很温暖、温馨又搞笑的电影。就是允儿露脸的地方有点太少了吧！新年快乐！！
韩版《真爱至上》 太美好啦 2022值得期待呀！
7.5/10这正是我目前急需看到爱情片，人生哪里来的那么多选择。非常精彩好看电影！
好一般，原来韩国也有贺岁电影，合家欢的爱情电影，套路没有什么新意，有点乏味
应景贺岁片 多线大团圆剧情 观影过程还是很轻松的
一年至少需要一部这样的爆米花电影来增加点生活的甜度。以及，光洙戏份太少了！！
哈哈蛮好 因为不信天造地设唯一灵魂伴侣那一套 看韩剧会觉得为什么男女主角痛苦来痛苦去都这么痛苦了还搞非你不可一定要在一起那一套 喜欢浪漫的体质很大程度上也是因为里面的关系很轻松不沉重会觉得他们在一起很好不在一起也很好 遇到谁还是取决于你是谁吧
只看了允儿的cut 喜欢喜欢 过年就得看这种
就喜欢这种大杂烩，温暖人心，色调，节奏都很舒适！叫醒服务要陪着一起跳，笑死啦，每天重复生活，也会有好事发生
Julia选的电影，结局也和我们希望的一样
实在不想看太累的片子，就来把昨天未看完的看掉。
姜河那&允儿 金英光&韩智玟&李阵郁 的故事线好看/节日电影就是要HE！
人物群像做的好失败 每个角色都塑造的很类型化且表面
