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.

亲测是一部温暖的动画电影，是大朋友的治愈良药，是小朋友真善美的启蒙。
小火车不错 我的家也很好 小兔子的丧偶式画面让我感到自己坏掉了
很奇妙的一次观影体验，在影片的娓娓道来里追忆了一把童年好时光。那种淡淡的情绪铺垫，那种无处不在的童年印记，那种独具特色的各地方言，那种让人回味悠长的后劲，我真的上头了，大爱这部片子，等正式上映，我会去影院二刷。
敬所有绘本人，动画人！小兔子，小火车和外婆这三个故事让我泪目了。是属于我们自己的好故事，好动画！
一部适合全年龄段观看的动画，中间转场的配音太萌了。七个篇章，关联不同的题材，有母爱、灾区重建、留守老人、关于外婆的回忆、退休焦虑等，用非常童真可爱的方式讲出让人思考的故事。推荐大家带着孩子父母去看看
不被故事、戏剧结构等等一系列繁文缛节的东西所束缚，最后呈现出的就是这样一部精品！我觉得把这部动画电影称为平凡生活的礼赞，简直不要太合适！没想到这都2022年了，我还能在电影院里被一个国产的动画片感动的稀里哗啦的。
太困了中间三个故事睡着了，剩下四个故事都有哭到嗷嗷嗷。马上就能回家辽！
看到还有在一板一眼做动画的导演，还是很欣喜的。去电影院看了，以后还会继续支持。几个短片重，外婆的故事最戳到我，小火车的整体叙事和手法最成熟，可见功力。大家加油啊！
温暖，第一个故事有点一般，最喜欢外婆和外公的那两篇
就是排片很少，今天下午终于看到了，很喜欢这些类似《娃娃画报》画风动画片。
我买了票 没去看 错过了
非常适合带小朋友看的一部暖心又有教育意义的动画片，手绘的动画就像在看少儿读本，7个故事各有特点，把大人也带到了童年！
七个非常温暖的小故事，娓娓道来，温暖人心，而且不仅仅是给小孩子看的故事，成年人看了仍然会有所感触。最喜欢糖水铺，其次哼哈，外婆和翼娃子偏现实主义，小兔的转场设计流畅自然，推荐
七个短篇小故事合成的电影故事性上都挺不错，看了其他人的短评说是国内首部原创绘本动画片，这种画风我看着很舒服很温馨。 最喜欢的是外婆的蓝色铁皮柜轮椅这个故事，淡淡的忧伤的回忆，实在是让我动容。 其他故事也都很不错，好几个故事也都有各自的隐喻。
七个小故事，虽然主题不同，表现风格不同，但都带着浓浓的中国风以及展现了当前社会上常见的各种问题。每个故事的底色是一致的，是充满爱和温暖的。
2022-1-15安贞ume 意外的惊喜，很喜欢小火车那个四川故事。可以说国漫新思路。
翼娃子的星期天：打工子女的小幸福；
中国首部绘本动画片，故事非常贴合我们，从古到今，还用了不少的方言，颇具代表性，也能通过影片感受到导演们的用心，都体现在细节上！
冬日温暖，后两部短片触动到自己内心了！7部短片每部都有其独特之处，那么用心把7部片子连接在一起，每个片段用儿歌或者童谣做引子，契合主题，治愈系动画电影。做动画太不容易了，一定要去电影院支持独立动画创作者，感谢你们给生活带来那么多光亮。
