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.
孩子，你走之前把猪圈的猪都放生了吗？
中规中矩，枪战也就5分钟，最后还有个反转。喜欢影片的，是喜欢影片的调调吧～剧情太平了～
结局在有点意外不过也在预料之中，老炮儿这一生活到现在还有个儿子，已经很满足了！！！
影片中出现的通缉令上的照片也是史上流传下来据说是Billy the Kid的唯一照片。
踩点不多派几个人，最后也没发挥出人数优势，黑吃黑的结局注定没有善终的人。。
这是一部节奏很慢的电影，不同于以往的西部电影刻画牛仔精神，快马快枪的感觉。本片情绪是逐渐进阶的过程，所有的张力最终凝结于亨利拔枪的一瞬。片中人物不多，但是各有故事，也阐释了在这片法外之地，以暴制暴的丛林法则！
一个半小时可以拍的比较紧凑合理已经不错了 没有浪费时间的一部片子
“我不相信救赎，但一个男人可以找到一些慰藉，如果他有你这样的男孩要抚养……世界正在发生一些变化，你去看看吧”
纯正西部片，剧情虽老套，配乐拍摄给小星星。
巧了，刚看完隐姓埋名做裁缝的黑老大，又来了死而复生几十年的billy the kid，这种藏在人群中的绝世高手确实能满足天下普通人的英雄梦。
Who I am ? I am nobody.
3.5，画面，质感，服装都很对味，剧情有些忒简单，完全可以丰富一些
西部传奇“比利小子”的另一个版本，典型的西部套路。
老派西部风格就是话从不表达完整但枪法一定要准
全篇就一场戏。。。有点漫长
原来是一代传奇“比利小子”，牛人，美国扫地僧！
讲了一个为抚养熊孩子浪费了大好青春的天才枪手亨利又回光返照的故事。
整体观感其实一般般，但这他娘才是西部片，前段时间出的那部全黑人的垃圾片也好意思舔着大脸说自己是西部片？我连片名都懒得记....
I dont believe in redemption.the world is change ,it's a place i dont belong in no more...结局的感叹像极了荒野大镖客救赎中对亚瑟摩根的总结。时代在前进，西部枪手成为了历史符号。
没想到还能穿出来一系列
