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.
简单粗暴，反正就是胖子打人，人人都跟没脑子似的。。
老爷爷挺眼熟也挺可爱的，只想看他做衣服……2022.5 @ BJ
I'm not a tailor，i'm a cutter.
玩了个东南亚叙事，可惜又回到了韩国，缺少第一部移民社区的空间感，各方面都显得像一般的动作片了。既然工作地点没变，他怎么管起整个首尔的治安了，膨胀了
好看诶！看完以后感觉自己参与了高级狼人杀，天黑请闭眼，天亮请睁眼。谁是老鼠？
非常棒的舞台剧，有悬疑有反转，Mark Rylance演技绝赞。
精巧的设计，所有场景都在一个裁缝店中完成，拍成舞台剧也是可以的。商业爆米花看多了，其实感觉这种精巧的电影更有吸引力。
孙锡久好帅！！应该是这两年最亮眼的韩国男演员！都有点夺目了啊. 性张力拉满.
虚头巴脑，故弄玄虚，不值一看。女的表演浮夸，男的故作深沉。黑帮一群蠢货。
老裁缝“不简单”得太明显，不过整个氛围很喜欢。
不是王牌特工那种绅士格斗，也不是极速追杀那样的西装杀手，贯穿始终的英式优雅，和融入西装制作的讲究。小小的裁缝店，巨大的长大，不断反转，引人入胜。
不错的小空间电影，门廊、前厅、后室，故事就在三重空间里三重展开，主演的精湛演技撑起了整个电影世界。
影片在单一的空间格局内呈现了极强的复古感和话剧感，主角不靠打打杀杀干趴所有黑帮，可谓揣着心理战的明白装枪战的糊涂。结尾Francis的起身看似生硬有强行反转之意，但前面早有“他为老大挡过六颗子弹”的铺垫（说明他身体素质强不会轻易狗带），至此老爷子离开London的原因线通过向博伊尔家族三人的讲述才有了完整的交待。
小而精致，出其不意，算得上是小成本佳作，但看完以后其实留不下什么深刻印象。
优雅太他妈优雅了，有细节有反转，复杂的超立方体的设计。时间会减弱贴切感觉，无聊的时光总会有些快乐的事情。一般来说，裁缝很像一个仆人，被认为是隐形的，所以他的客户在他面前畅所欲言也不会感到不安。
剧情不错，短小精悍，紧张刺激，在一个空间里面发生的故事。中文译名太差了。
一开始沉迷于裁缝手艺的质感，但也隐约感觉这人道儿深，妹想到看起来最面的男主有一百个心眼，背景更是让人震惊。太好看了。
马东锡各种胖揍逼小子们，看着解馋😋！变态狂各种捅刀，小角色哈尔滨张谦抢戏严重，最后都要各种西8了，哈哈哈。评3.4星。
和第一部没太大差别的肌肉哥以暴制暴，就是看个过瘾，可惜没有第一部美女多。一身横练肌肉还加智商没必要
中规中矩的上帝视角反转舞台剧，男主的工匠精神到位
