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.
只需尽己当下所能就好
本以为是个温情治愈番，没想到是鬼怪神话类的，后面的走向有点像夏目，但是叙事节奏不够好，很多内容表现的有些牵强的样子。
自从我丈夫去世后，面对纷拥而至的孤独，我开始了胡乱消费
没想到中间有搞笑戏份…也没想到全程被没钱的阴影笼罩……更没想到结局………
我无法拒绝面朝大海春暖花开的老房子 更何况还有那么可爱的妹妹和温柔的妖怪们
三星半。第一次见天海女王演这么苦恼的角色呢。
还是主角给力！
女神果然是女神，一改女强人印象，演什么像什么，不愧是宝冢出身，真的笑着流泪🥲钱虽然重要但不是最重要的，这部电影绝非适合搬上大荧幕的，我觉得更适合在家里看。草笛光子年轻时真美啊，他演的母亲角色也都很印象深刻。有个这样的母亲和婆婆知足了。还有五郎叔一站在那里就是五郎，再一进食那就完了，就是五郎，串戏让人阿哈哈哈😄
喜欢奶奶照顾孙女的部分，就是这个结尾打败大坏蛋太敷衍了吧。。。
是个很安静的动漫，适合心烦意乱的时候观看，很温馨，动漫内容比较不足
https://b23.tv/ep474025，前半段极佳，后半段极差
没想到中间有搞笑戏份…也没想到全程被没钱的阴影笼罩……更没想到结局………
前半部分巨搞笑，今年观感最欢乐的新片。搞笑来源却是东亚中产的共同焦虑，病不起，葬不起，住不起，结婚成本，中年失业危机，养老压力，就差教育压力没提了…
遭受天灾和原生家庭双重伤害的人靠妖怪来治愈，太过理想主义。
催眠向，里面的河童虽然丑，但是竟然觉得挺可爱的
牡丹饼吃不下三个，不贪多，过好当下☘️
岩手県大槌町|Lapintrack制作协力|st.BREAK(大平晋也、桥本晋治等)昔话部分作画？
在雅安地震之后看到这部电影，还真是，心情复杂
羊文学的片尾曲我也不太喜欢。
emmm看个乐呵……悲痛等负面情绪会招来祸患啊……所以要积极乐观的生活😊
