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.
带自动武器的特种兵，被拿手枪的警察压制住了，有点扯

这是个垃圾电影，但这个电影敢嘲讽总理发推特，很勇敢啊
很压抑，中年退伍军人，想为了家庭拼一把，却在犄角旮旯，默默死去
滅口不合理，動作戲也一般，男主角ending完全不發揮嘛。
的确是一个缝合怪，可以看到各种大片的影子，但是我就喜欢大爽文
一般般吧，哪有实力这么弱的特战队啊。。。情节前后不搭，牵强
3.5。动作戏的部分拍得还是很爽快的，下水道那部分幻视了一秒《第三人》w 文戏比较敷衍，是减分重点。派派剃了胡子还是和小舰长那时一样长得像个小年轻哈哈哈哈哈可可爱爱w 也延续了他一贯的选本选角色的宗旨，就算做英雄，也要做武力值不高的那种23333
很典型的美国退役大兵电影。深刻的主题是国家、军队军人、至高无上的国家利益、和随意牺牲的个人利益之间的冲突，有些老套，商业电影，槽点较多，打发时间
差在故事，怎么连个阴谋论都写的这么没有逻辑支离破碎的，前半段过了之后柏林的节奏感紧张感都很好啊，结尾就？
抛去各种槽点和漏洞，把世间险恶讲的很清晰，人性够黑暗。
哈哈哈哈哈哈，印度片是真的，土炫土炫的。上来就是三段MV式的叙事，甜蜜的以为在看爱情片。《机械战警》+《奥林匹斯陷落》+《碟中谍》式的摩托车，别的不说，爽是真的爽到了。
这个片诸多不合理之处，如果是迈扣贝那种动作片，有点不合理不太要紧，如果是假装成写实风格的动作片，不合理之处就都被放大了，回头一看谍影重重真是巅峰…
电影质感不错，精良制作，就是定位非动作型，主题负累下商业娱乐元素被压抑了，不太舒展。结尾刚灭了bauer，就去喊jack不太尊重前辈啦。
#Cannes2022 作再做家庭对照，都是聚在一团胡搅一锅。可以“美国、新冠、证据”关键词上微博热搜的程度。
剧情就不要有什么期待了，烂透了，枪战场面可以👍
卡司可以的，战术细节也算有模有样，就是这剧情就真的是又老套又敷衍了。。
（印度）科幻超级英雄电影，精英战士受伤瘫痪，获得最新科技“超算AI”加持，变身超级战士，奇兵降临势如破竹，一人搞定恐怖团伙几乎所有几十号人马，拯救了一群高级政客和许多群众。宝莱坞对标“漫威\DC”的超英电影，合格。宝莱坞还在路上，有点猛。
呃，什么实验室？什么疫苗？什么…………我们可啥也没说哈，这可是你们自己人说的哈……
决战部分的动作戏好仓促。男主上级帮男主杀自己金主缺少说服力。
