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.
中规中矩，没有什么惊喜的剧情，也没有什么拉垮的。
毒师律师都开创第二职业。律师和毒师里的老人聚首就值得看
“你有一种大胆与羞涩的美妙融合，我被深深吸引。”
《致胜女王》用消费券作为漏洞，这里发现彩票算法上的小九九；“诈欺”式的小故事往往会有一个充满说服力的前提，吸引观众的理解和同情。前者是家庭主妇不甘被忽视的心愿，这里则是在停滞的退休生活依然实现重振市镇的价值。“撼动系统”的道德命题，依然因为万千个故事里的人性和背后的普通人，而变得生动难解。
老白和chuck的奇异同框，这次chuck直接改名Howard，律师Buff拉满了属于是。
又暖心又不俗气，又聪明又好懂，又传统又酷。最难得的是非常好笑
题材挺好，也很欢快，但缺乏一定的戏剧冲突，不过也值得推荐
彩票商战版《犬屋敷》、老年退休版《克莱德和邦尼》、《论二项分布忽略的另外两个factor》。It’s never about math, it’s about people.
7分，从一个娱乐片，最终滑向温情，整体观感不错。然后还有毒师和律师演员的互动，有意思。
迪斯尼收购皮克斯之后，皮克斯就不是皮克斯了……
7分。一个通过彩票漏洞买彩票致富的故事。在这个基本框架下，剧情有几点不同：杰瑞和玛姬享受的是两口子在退休后一起冒险一起做事的过程，只不过结果刚好是有了钱；杰瑞和玛姬致富不忘带同乡，死气沉沉的小镇因为有钱了，又焕发了生机；杰瑞和玛姬遇到自私的哈佛大学生对手，并且让对方惨败；杰瑞和玛姬知道彩票漏洞，彩票销售公司也知道，只不过大家心照不宣，因为多买（卖）彩票是一件双赢的事情；杰瑞和玛姬最后过上了幸福的生活。有钱真好。
2022.6.25 Pixar的想象力感覺已經收皮了，故事其實很單薄且95電影的設定非常牽強（sox和zurg的設定都說不通），但！Alicia人設和那段蒙太奇太戳了，頗有Up頭10分鐘的神氣，而且sox的一本正經萌絕殺！（誰來給我解釋TS2裡玩星戰梗的那句I am your father套在這片裡怎麼圓。又，Buzz果然不是我的菜... 又又，千萬不要跟Marvel學壞了再出續集啊！
太差劲太无聊了….这真的是皮克斯么无语…猪一样的配角，buzz也不讨喜，垃圾故事。只剩sox了
“你有一种大胆与羞涩的美妙融合，我被深深吸引。”
为什么不在回滚到190W时候买一万的，时间把控的好的话就能风险小利润大
大学生的那条线太假了，其他的都还好，轻喜剧设定，可看。
挺后现代赛博的……美术和分镜还是一如既往的皮克斯水准，然后我get到buzz了好帅啊（哭）原来他有头发的（救）政治正确等话题如果过度focus是不是就偏离了这些话题的初衷呢，但是略微工整的故事和一些细节处理让这个故事没有很打磨的圆整，所以纠结一下还是三星吧。
解说/和致胜女王的套路很像，老两口发现了彩票的漏洞，于是带动镇民一起赚钱，其间还对抗了哈佛富二代，成功逆袭的故事，当做喜剧来看应该还是不错的吧？没看画面
就是来看老白的。果然还是演个农民天才。。哎，美国爆米花片正能量。不过真人真事蛮伟大的原型。
理工直男的爱就是那么诡异，但是整体演绎的很温馨，故事原型更帅…
