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.
戳爷的颜 故事也跳脱得不错 z时代的青春 所有的青春
有事吗？这部比刻在你心底的名字评分低？好夸张……整体逻辑自洽，中间还是有戳人的点，镜头也很好看…我觉得算是中上了吧…是不是因为AIDS题材共情少呢…（所以影评有人说男主“无情”？我无语先…）（看完后马上下单了艾滋病检测试剂…）
怎么会这么帅啊 声音还很好听
摄影太过惊艳；匕首形状的门把手；树叶涌进大厅
戳爷的演技让我眼前一亮了（六年粉丝第一次看他演的电影）
养眼但cliche，冲着画面和troye可以一看。
剧本在多次翻拍后已然没有过多新意，只能靠风格化的摄影与表演去突破，然而破不开原作的壁垒无疑又让当下的观众感到沉闷且繁缛。
虽然片名上做了改动，但剧本其实是极为正统的莎翁剧作，所以试图从本片中解读出更多释义是困难的。影像风格可能是与之前几部麦克白电影最大的区别：荒野和室内景大量采用对称式构图；走廊上的门洞光影恰如一排剑阵；奇幻与现实无缝衔接；黑白摄影的另一个优点是弱化了肤色的差异，所以黑麦也显得不那么违和了。
电影色调很美，戳爷写的两首配乐很好听 还带着点儿氛围感，戳爷真帅，然后…………唯一给我留下的就只有我也想买个双人自行车。
我居然很喜欢这样的莎翁剧，极具现代感的极简场景和莎翁的古英语台词搭配在一起有一种寓言感，完全是向着真实性的相反方向去做，这种脱离现实的感觉让人着迷，但我不太喜欢科恩嫂这一次的表演，一些小表情仿佛让人回到了现实，甚至是回到了冰血暴中，和整体的影片风格不甚般配。
故事改编相当保守，Denzel和McDormand年纪太大不符合剧作人设、看着一直出戏，摄影炫技但也还是偏舞台艺术。最顺眼的大概只是4:3画幅的圆角。
人在无助的时候最容易做傻事 但是经历过之后 才能真的长大 成熟 感谢生命中出现的那些个过客 都是彼此的消遣罢了
三星半 人生会有特别艰难的至暗时刻 你痛哭流涕你四下无人 面对安慰的话语你只想说“when？” 你等不急想要被坚定爱着 可是最爱你的人一直都是你自己呀！ps 不需要演技 戳爷本色出演就已经很养眼和自然了
好叭原来不是 还好还好
而是翻譯的中文字幕著實有下了一番功夫，值得欽佩。
画面挺青春，戳跟女闺蜜可以再合作一部，对手戏倒是挺自然的！
一部平庸的小清新同性影片，既不够生动，也谈不上深刻。
戳爷还挺帅 演技不赖
不带滤镜去看，开了1.25倍速，故事有点无聊，演技也浮于表面，没什么记忆点。
戳爷好帅好好看 电影的话 觉得色调很不错 故事平平 是大概能想到的走向 不过gay和les的友情还是蛮好的
