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.
十分的lgbtqia+，这在米国也是小众电影啊。。。
我太喜欢这样的美式轻松小甜剧了！！！特别是女主们还特别可爱呜呜呜
青春无敌，2人第一次对话就笑疯了，空气中的各种紧张。Are you coming out today？回答I‘m extremely gay. 哇哈哈。孩子妈妈也是太前卫了，sex toy那里又笑喷。7分钟天堂游戏，神助攻🤣😂🤣
青春片，满满都是少女感。很多少女心事放到现在的年龄来看，会觉得离自己好远。就像Paige妈妈说的，我曾是Paige，曾是AJ， 曾是Gabriela，被人伤害也伤害别人。青春感觉更能和Crush联系起来。真好啊
米国校园片里比较喧闹浮夸的那一类加了点百合元素而已，评分虚高了
普普通通
作为一个曾经最擅长跑步的姬，能因为一部本就难得的浪漫喜剧回忆起初中时（为数不多的快乐时刻之一）发现喜欢的女孩在观赛所以努力冲刺的可爱往事，没理由不加感情分。虽然背景差太远，但不得不承认这类小甜水对于活在糟糕现实里的不青春观众来说，真是一份迟到的安慰。我们需要更多校园姬片。
也许我太老了，看见这种青春洋溢且不管不顾的爱情故事总是特别感动。不过她们是幸运的，能够得到家人、朋友、同学的接受和认可，那个可以随意洒脱并不歧视酷儿的社会，真让人羡慕啊。

可是这是he诶！全员甜心！天哪 🥲🥲🥲片尾曲真的好好听
超治愈的～
这就是把预告片稀释再稀释，稀成刷牙水了……
于理，公司回收AI诗音有正当理由，她的过度真人化的确是个隐患，虽然其中还包含了公司内部的矛盾；于情，治愈校园故事总能触动人心，主角团为了友情反抗权威的情节也有种青少年特有的、不畏天高的烂漫，虽然偶尔煽情过了头。
田径赛场、涂鸦墙、两个母胎单身的女孩子等到了soulmate
3.5 很可爱的青春校园电影，虽然剧情很好猜，但看得出来在台词和一些双关语上有认真搞的。
结构老套的糖水片，但因为很多小心思设置得很巧，又恰恰捏住一点彩虹漫天的绚烂气氛，没办法不给多一点分数。AJ说自己的手机桌面是女武神，她真的很像年轻的版本，自负，强壮，天赋异禀，五官深刻，又深情。（另：我的醒脾是冷帽
比想象中还赚人热泪，后半部分真的太感动了（不要因为前半部分有点中二就跳过这部很好看的！）
小甜饼，除了看不到两个人的crush都中规中矩。
很平庸，画面挺清新的，剧情前半部分因为设定环境很包容，期待后面有什么新奇有趣的发展，结果平平无奇，结尾也很烂熟。
I can enjoy it without thinking. Forget about the holy shit reality! 是文化差异导致的审美取向不同么？AJ感觉在东亚地区会更受欢迎。
