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.
脑洞大开，又爽又燃，肉眼可见电影是花了大成本。铺垫太多，到了结尾有点不够爽。
如今是一个荷尔蒙稀缺的时代，多一点荷尔蒙的电影挺好
当看到身残志坚饥困交加的逼王在监狱里做引体向上的时候，我大受震撼并质问自己，还有什么理由不锻炼！？
4.0 拍的真的不好。唯一可以说的是历史氛围感，仅此而已。
《投敌者》《1917》都看过，怪不得双男主眼熟，《巴比伦柏林》的夏洛特只是出演了工具人吗？
英国人就是这样的厚颜无耻，一个墩克尔克大溃败能让他们拍成常凯申式的战略“转进”，一个对希特勒无限让步出卖捷克利益的慕尼黑协定居然被它说为和平争取了时间，为最终战胜纳粹德国做好了准备。可事实是什么？要不是希特勒脑袋抽筋儿去进攻苏联，要不是美国看到有利可图重演一战的“参战”剧情，英国人早就跟法国人一起学习德语了。
纪实类影片
原著作者和导演想表达的是：张伯伦基于正确的理由做了错误的决定。绥靖政策在当时的欧洲基本是民心所向，一战的阴影和影响让老百姓普遍反战，十月革命使西方世界把苏俄红色势力当作更重要的敌人，最重要的是没人能预料到希特勒会那么疯狂。所以就连丘吉尔也评价张伯伦是“为和平而斗争，甚至不顾巨大的危险，至于个人的荣辱则肯定也完全置之度外。”
剧情节奏很慢的电影，又没有很享受的过程，没有看下去的欲望。粗略看解说，简单来说就是失去了阻止二战的一次绝佳机会，但历史不能够重演了，讲这些有多大意义呢？做好当下为和平付出的努力，维护当下世界和平才是正道。
视觉想象力突破宇宙！！！不愧为开挂民族！把活人塑造成超级英雄，印度教真的很有意思。
“羊群有一个牧羊人，他会用生命保护羊群，那位牧羊人会走遍天涯海角带回失踪的小羊，就算发现小羊已落入虎口，他也会打断虎牙，掰开虎嘴，把小羊带回家。” 每个民族都应该有这样一个牧羊人。
看哭了，倒不是拍得多好。只是代入感很强，很心酸。“我本可以一枪毙了希特勒”，但我们终究是普通人。
节奏稍有点慢，大国首脑博弈中穿插着同学之间的情报战和感情纠葛，诡异中又带点宿命的感觉
终于看上了！没想到这俩男主会有这么好磕…荞麦又在紧急送关键信件哈哈哈哈 德国小哥太帅了！开头剪辑碎得我一度难以入戏 但越看越觉得总体还不错 拍得真的蛮抓人的 但感觉男主和妻子的部分没太大作用？结尾重复开头三个人那段感觉也很unnecessary 张伯伦的那种政客的狡猾嘴脸还是展现得挺好的 有代入感了 虽然查了一下感觉一些历史上的细节没拍出来 可能电影也无意于此吧 又知道了一段二战历史就很nice～
学生时代关于张伯伦的对应词就是绥靖，后来看丘吉尔自传，张伯伦并不是一无是处。这部片子从另一个角度展现了那段历史和相关当事人，蛮有意思…
不要有希望，因为希望是需要靠别人来实现的……拍的太戏剧化了，设置的压迫感还不够……
一个鲜血横流之时放声高歌，说：“老子宁折不弯”。
Netflix少见的全程质量都在线的电影，作为政治惊悚类型拍的也很精彩，最难能可贵的就是没有全盘否定慕尼黑协议和张伯伦的作用，对纳粹绥靖的不满也表达的相对客观
两个开挂的印度神干翻了一整个英国总督府……人民去哪里了
就着渣画质可下饭的3小时神片，现代印度版武松打虎，RRR！牛牛牛！
