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.
两个贪婪的蠢批,坑填上一起回去租拖车不就行了吗?
还不错,几个人讲了一个人性小故事,化妆效果不错
A manhood movie. 人性的弱点
想表现人性的贪婪,最终双双陨命。亮点不多,比较吸引眼球的是干燥荒芜的隔壁沙滩!
这个结尾。。。还不如拿着敲下来一块跑路,好过丢掉性命啊
天哪,前面铺垫那么久是为了啥?太多余了,完全可以在战斗中穿插起前面想要铺垫的剧情,从进入柏林后,后面的节奏马上起来了,打斗没有过于超人化,还是不错。建议大家看个开头10分钟后,拖到后面从柏林行动开始。
美国影片讽刺本国政府的不少,生物战的更多,可惜都对实际没什么影响。生物实验室还是遍布全世界——感觉享受强大的美国人其实不再乎其它地方的人。
军人下岗再就业难题,随时都是可以被抛弃的。
基本是荒野求生的独角戏。
黄金比较软,用小刀,铁锹,锤子,花点时间,敲出来几块,分解搬运出去。
反映人性的好电影,人总是被贪婪驱动着,却最终死于贪婪。
还是可以的,大量的独角戏但并不让人觉得无聊。故事简单,演技也都在线!
There Will Be Blood + The Revenant
人为财死,鸟为食亡。茫茫大漠,从天而降的巨大金矿,你该怎么办?一个能精彩的点,但是没有完成一个精彩的故事。
故事讲的不够完整,甚至有点啰嗦,但好在气氛做的够足,颇有当年《谍影重重》的味道。
很喜欢克里斯佩恩,但是这片子后半段真的莫名其妙啊…..和其他评论说的一样,敷衍!好评就是美国+疫苗+研究疫苗的科学家…..很真实
2022年了,还拍这种cliche认真的吗?
逻辑有问题,任务好歹也完成了,接走负伤的队员不是最好的选择?
挺可怜的
