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.
提前看的点映，今天上映了来打分，这次张译算是配角，章宇完全hold住了。导演把这场虽小但重要的战争拍的格外扣人心弦。不敢说春节档口碑最好的，但是质量完全过关，冷枪冷炮，热血沸腾。
美军在这里也终于成为了正常人 成为了有压迫感旗鼓相当的对手
故事里的每一个人 都拥有了一个符合正常逻辑的死法 这并不容易 虽然最后的坦克大战又有点神兵天降的意思了 但整体来说 真挚 细腻 他们唱起雄赳赳气昂昂跨过鸭绿江 这种热烈而不尴尬的表达 让人感动
既要在生活无时不刻扮演ボケ磨练技艺，还要有跨过师匠的决心，成为一个传奇可真不容易啊。
比长津湖好多了。脚板还在，雀雀还在，还雄得起。
半个月前随意看的 结尾真的想哭 笑中带泪的告别啊
相比同期的长津湖 导演的刻画则更加细腻 不去选择堆砌一个宏大的场面来展现悲壮 而是以点渲面 以小博大 相比之下 则显得更加的刚中带柔 动人心弦
还行，场景比较简单，就是敌我两组狙击手在一处阵地上斗智斗勇。
小武说美国有个叫Lenny Bruce的喜剧演员，不管是种族还是政治，什么都敢讲，我就是要做那样的漫才；听到这句话我很感动，尽量将来有一天你北野武是作为电影导演被全世界人记住，但是你确实触及到了喜剧艺术最强大的精神内核；深作师傅的故事太令人唏嘘了，麻里老板娘说我就是喜欢看到舞台上的你啊，看到这里默默哭掉了半包纸
画面干净，讲了一个小故事，张力很足，方言台词写的很传神，时长90分钟其实可以再拍的充实些，后半段男二号刻画的有点单薄，急于收尾的感觉
夢はすてたと言わないで 他に道なき2人なのに

老谋子电影独有韵味 谁也替代不了
我妈妈走出影院后她和我说的第一句话就是“太棒了，真是挺长时间没有看到这么优秀的作品了！编剧编得太好了，你的导师真的太厉害了！”
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
剧情挺多离谱和夸张的 但是在音乐的渲染下真的很好哭 可是我跟爷爷奶奶一块看的 还不好意思哭出来 所有的眼泪都流在了心里和眼眶子里。。。
北野武自传电影的第二部泪目之作，也是回忆师徒关系的第二部，前一部是讲他年轻时落语师傅的《红鳉鱼》。
3.5，半部佳片，比悬崖好，值回票价。
身陷落魄之时，师母还能对师父笑着说，
蛮感人的，就是大过年的看，委实有点影响感受。
