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.
我为他付出真心，他却只把我当成夏日的“消遣”。戳爷真的太适合演电影了！！！夏日感拉满了！
除了色调、troye的脸和歌以外都真的很不行啊，就这还能7.2？我拜托了……把一些青春片拍烂了的话题全部放进去一锅炖，故事节奏迷惑，跟印度哥毫无cp感。
ps.所以fiet最后是成为家庭主夫了嘛？
3.5 Joel Coen并不在乎麦克白，只在乎如何把舞台布景变为电影布景。
It sucks but it will be ok.
摄影节奏表演几乎挑不出毛病，但是还是比较喜欢法鲨版本的麦克白。法鲨＞丹泽尔，而反过来科恩嫂＞歌迪亚，极简的风格注定这部剧的悲壮和悲凉，过于精心设计的格局和编排，戏剧性极强的人物和台词，比起法鲨版本的是恐惧与爱人的绝望，丹泽尔只有恐惧与良心的谴责推入地狱，随时一换就是一出舞台剧了。
台词过于密集语速太快，“说”压倒性地超越了“做”和“想”。丹泽尔裙带了一众黑人表亲，强求政治正确的违和始终在阻碍阅读。屏宽配色光线包括宫殿线条构造，乔尔单飞第一弹很有辨识度，却实难令人称道。
欲望本身无罪，一辈子就这么短，哪个人也不应该承受艾滋，戴套吧，悠着点吧。特洛耶希文长得也太美好了以至于我认为主角应该是积极的，等待总是难熬，况且是三个月的等待，到底有没有那该死的艾滋，到底是过好现在还是计划好将来，没关系，有人陪着，能好好面对还是充满希望。
太阳星辰、睡眠死亡、天堂地狱，大量天空的描写让人与环境的对抗显得如此无力。4：3画幅，大量固定镜头，经典电影技法拍经典文学，表演和台词还是舞台剧式的。人物刻画薄弱，还好女巫的恐怖感渲染出色。极简的线条和布光，几段establishing shot很惊艳。同是科恩和黑泽明的脑残粉，还是更喜欢六十年前的蜘蛛巢城。
明亮的夏天最好的朋友，別管未來如何試著不去想它，先過好現在的生活去喜歡自己的生活，戳爺真的太可愛了，🎶也超好聽。
感觉与这个时代格格不入，像属于旧时代的作品。摄影布光这些太强了。
科恩兄弟解散后，最不科恩的科恩电影。被预告片骗了，本以为是默片，没想到话痨的受不了。实在想不明白为什么看这个电影耽误
高中后就没怎么关注特洛耶希文了 这次一见还是挺亮眼的 脸还跟当年一样一点没变 角色诠释也很自然 他算是俗套的青春片中唯一的亮点了
为什么学长和弟弟兜兜转转还是没有遇到😭😭😭
黑白色调➕表现主义遗风，这可真是一件美事啊
戳爷的少年感爆棚了，整体画面和配乐和前段时间看的《crush》好像，虽然挺套路的，但是看得人心情很好。游乐场和海边的戏太美好了~
还不错，不及《爱你西蒙》。两个男主都很帅，除此之外一般。直到电影结束前我都在期待HE……
3.0。恭喜二分之一位金棕櫚導演終於開始拍NT Live啦👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
这集换导演了还是摄像换了，这个船太带劲了，上头，最美感的一次
具冲击力的布景，极简，黑白镜头下一切显得那样的惨兮兮。但是表演、台词和运镜都太舞台化了。
