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.
别人拍电影是探讨社会问题，我们只有社会主义正能量
不敢相信这是印度电影唉！印度唉！反观……男女主在自己爱的人面前真的眼睛都闪着光唉，画风都温柔了很多。特别男主，反差好大。
旧爱重逢，身份认同。潮汕风味的《带你去见我妈》是一部借「改革开放」春风深化「封建迷信」冻土，缓解个体与环境互动中形成的两套「爱情」神话叙事逻辑的冲突，并着重处理「母子」关系的作品。它与处理「父子」关系的《坏儿子》大同小异：父子身份在洗澡一幕悄然发生反转。幸与不幸，历经过「婚姻」失败的《独身女人》显然没有《东北虎》妈狠——无需「流血事件」爆发，一切都是可通过谈判协商解决的「面子」问题。这部小格局「形象」宣传片真正的目的不是邀请「未婚妻」儿远嫁过来，而是鼓励「东北虎」妈出去「闯荡」促谈。无论是谈恋爱，还是谈生意，可不都是「少一点套路，多一点真诚」嘛。影片强调的是「东西」文化贯通，经济特区的「科技之神」手机与周边传统「宗教」意识形态深入融合。趁着这个「百年难得一遇的好日子」重塑家庭格局和世界秩序。
很真实，很有感觉，但是在印度比起同性问题，种姓问题应该更重要吧
还不错，最后的结局还挺感动的，男主和女主都勇敢的做了自己，特别是男主，终于敢承认了。
有点惊喜。如果去台湾上映，这位潮汕妈妈值得一个金马影后提名。真的太真实了，现实里见过的闽南潮汕女人就是这样的……然后这个情节的主线也是一个真问题，身边太多这种因为媳妇是外地而被拆散的例子了。结尾确实有美化，电影嘛。
1恋爱、见家长、结婚……孩子们的婚姻是大部分中国家庭的头等大事之一。当这些事发生在潮汕家庭，又会有怎样的表现？
跨越了性别，还是跨不过种姓。童话般的结尾，已经离理想化的印度很接近了
真实自然的故事，流畅舒适的表达，真挚契合的配乐，恰到好处的情怀和地方特色，以及带着惊喜和巧合且省钱的彩蛋式收尾，春节档最佳，与其刷大片不如捞一部有趣的小制作素人电影来得有意义，四星加一星，权作赞助！🎉
强行he，笑点笑不出来，泪点哭不出来
但是最終我們一定會走向這樣的結局
亚裔女孩和那个白人男孩选的不错 不然我真分不清楚
如何将潮汕生活的细节喜剧化这一块，还是做得很好的。但其实就是段子思维，不是电影思维。真正落实到人物情感，现实问题，就显得平庸无力。只有在最后几乎是花絮一般的镜头中，我们看到了复杂而真实的人物。一种自卑与自责，好奇与可爱，是长期封闭与落后真正被打开与溶解的开始。而这才是潮汕电影的方向。
印度这样的背景下，拍出一部这样的片子，很有意义。很多事情会有局限让人无法按照内心，还是希望能发自内心的勇敢爱❤️
想想其实孩子能在这样的彩虹家庭长大多幸福啊 虽然“Sumi和Shardul们”还不能说服大家他们就“和其他人一样正常” 但这个结局是印度电影人当下能拍出的最好的结局了 没关系 step by step, love always wins
感觉剧情一般吧但是真的好突破…有点彩虹宣传片感…不过可以照着直接翻拍的程度…
真好啊，印度都能拍同性形婚，呼吁同性领养合法了。感觉被人家落下老远。
影片中充满着妥协，虽然结局过于理想化，但其中的真情实感是很动人的。彩虹旗游行的那一幕真的让人感动。庆祝所有形式的爱，love is love
一部不错的LG BT电影。比较现实，最后的结局无疑是理想化了。
但另一方面而言，其实拍出来至少代表了一种关注。
