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.
看过原著也完全没有用，这基本上除了玉佛头，其他都是重写的。但特效和演员都还不错，希望有系列续集，但故事好好写。
这样的阵容和制作 拍了个这样的电影 你说是网大或者十年前的电影我都信。 佛头的秘密这么幼稚我是真没想到。马伯庸的原著也是这样吗 没看过不了解 电影是真失望
太快太赶了，看过原著的都觉得节奏太快了，许多都没交代清楚，还花镜头渲染感情。更何况没看过剧情的。
剧情还挺紧凑，就是深究每个人没什么做有点牵强
很好，电影院里有过年的气氛了。
中规中矩了，挺好吧又感觉没那么精彩，这些卡司聚在一起的电影我只能给个及格，其实可以更优秀的
受不了辛芷蕾任何角色…PS.这个反转太意料之中了
黄烟烟的武力值被严重削弱，第一次get到了李现的颜值，为了把一本书讲完，感觉很仓促，故事的基调不太对，不应该这么热闹，特效还行。
李现油腻得像是透过屏幕给我扇耳光，和大头哥同场的戏份完全被碾压。为什么设定很有趣的电影，可以烂成这样？

作为商业类型片真的很不错了，能在审查下做到元素集齐，不拖泥带水，摄影与美术质感完全在线，为什么评分会低，是类型片的套路真的很难符合当代观众的胃口了吗
没看过原著，对我来说是一个很新奇的故事，有笑点也有紧张抓人心的点。大爷还是大爷，强，雷佳音李现辛芷蕾都是优秀的演员，12月的第一部电影看的挺值。
也是等了好久好久终于看到了，虽然我印象中的“五脉宇宙”，一定不是这样一关关密室逃脱的戏码。几段鉴别古董时做的的特效画面很亮眼，希望以后《国家宝藏》《假如会说话》之类的节目可以学学。以及，在这一片选角中，我还真的觉得李现是最合适的几个之一，药不然在第一部小说里那种高傲，少爷派的气质还是被出色地呈现了的。
中华小当家+鬼吹灯+笑傲江湖+天龙八部+古惑仔+让子弹飞…
辛芷蕾这九十年代造型也太好看了！
影版，真不行。不知道这部电影目标群体是谁？原著党？大部分细节缺失，配角故事线强化（还可以），但缺主心骨，原著党不满意。其他观众？细节缺失造成逻辑不严谨，观众不是傻子，会衍生一系列疑问。这部作品最大的家国情怀没体现，造成的矛盾和疑问无法自圆，实在是可惜题材了。剧版比之强太多。
港片模式和盗墓体系除了节奏真的啥都不剩了，逻辑的敷衍程度几乎到了只能失智才能接受，但历史过渡终于结束
是不是古董剧都是包含推理啊？还有点盗墓的感觉。葛大爷真的老了。220117//
没看过原著也没看过剧，感觉还行，评分才6.3，是因为电影院滤镜吗？我比较疑惑的是，许和平留下的围棋提示如此简单明了，药不然怎么看不出来呢。我还不明白的是，许愿和张小敬两个人物这么像，雷佳音还真都接了呀。然后我最最疑惑的是，真佛头藏在假佛头里，让日本人以为是真，归根结底确实是真，许一诚怎么知道人家后代一定会还回来呢，砍头不冤啊，费了好几代的劲儿，究竟在保护什么呀
12岁的我可能会喜欢这种……感觉也不是很对的上我的笑点，中途一直走神
