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.
作为网大没骗我，踏踏实实地讲故事，每个人物都有根，不虚浮，小成本小故事手起刀落干净利索，人物的侠肝义胆，一酒之恩，结尾一句“忘了，你也喝人家酒了。”让人泪目。
你懂被最近标榜的武侠辣眼睛到只能在b站看过去武侠精彩锦集疗伤的无奈么...这个电影QAQ开场五分钟看到小喽啰胳膊被掰断露出骨头，我简直要流泪了.....这是多么正常却又难得的电影啊！！！
这是这些年华语武侠电影最好的一部没有之一，无论服装道具镜头节奏都很到位，我不管是不是网大，我只知道的是大部分的院线电影远远拍的不如这个，没道理不给五星，并且我相信这部片子绝对不会止步7.1的，拭目以待。
很不错，不啰嗦不煽情不卖惨……动作灯光镜头剪辑都很棒！
网大佳作！！！上一部谢苗的网大佳作应该算是东北警察故事，这两部其实都可以作为系列一直出下去！类型说明中写的武侠本来没太期待，完全因为东北警察故事想看看谢苗的表现，结果真的没想到竟然主题如此鲜明、动作如此流畅，没有一秒浪费，节奏紧凑、剧情合理、音乐到位、布景精致……尤其近来各种社会事件的影响下，一句“讨个公道”能震撼多少人！！！
白酒是无色透明也液体 但 无色透明液体不一定是白酒 一群大傻逼
谢苗长大后终于有部超出及格线的电影了，不容易，作为年青一代还能拍打戏的演员真得支持下。ps：看过了，谢苗看久了还挺帅的，镜头画面也比他之前的网大好了不少，但是动作设计就有点退步了，大环境如此，能拍一部这样的武打片已经很不容易了，也没法苛责。加油吧。
抽出剑那里仿佛又回到千军万马的战场，睁开眼睛太燃了，古典武侠精神。顶级网大。
从<剑雨>以后 到徐浩峰武林三部曲以后 难得看到这么过瘾的动作武侠电影了.
故事太简陋了。我觉得中国电影不好看的最主要原因就是编剧不行，导演能凑合，故事不能糊弄。
白酒是无色透明也液体 但 无色透明液体不一定是白酒 一群大傻逼
武戲可圈可點，可謂近年來武俠電影佳作，瑕不掩瑜。
另外替李云龙带个话：程瞎子我告诉你，当年老子教你怎么打枪，现在就教你怎么用刀。
事了拂衣去，深藏身与名。
很有一点愁苦版座头市的感觉；各方面处理得就像动画，考虑到男主演的几乎都是这类型，也许再剪短一点多凑几集就是他个人的《爱 死亡 江湖》hhhhhhhhhh
武打爽片，动作行云流水，一点都不拖沓，剧情上稍显简单。最新换这种主角是一直都很强的模式，而不像其他电影的一些俗套，主角又强变弱再变强。
谢苗网大界熬出头了？有点无限之住人的意思。联瑞参与，剧本再磨磨大银幕可以有。
一般吧，当个爽片看，剧情和逻辑基本一窍不通，服化道也不行，不过几处动作戏挺好的，但是全片没有高潮
3.5。完整，清楚，不啰嗦，少尿点。有槽点：唐朝吃牛肉犯法。所以，类似牛肉汤面而且自己家牛保新鲜这样的错误，还有。
还挺好，故事极简，没有波澜，那一招火刀还挺惊艳。这些年没看过什么印象深刻的武侠片，这一部算不错的了。
