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.
70 本来想说咋你们印度人也搞这种“青天大老爷是好的坏的都是下面的”套路，但是吧... 算了。
青春就是这样无意义的热血吧！哪里要什么规矩人生呢！
误杀3有了，印度政府怎么放任这些辱印电影全世界传播？
我忍不住在想，这个世界上任何一个角落里，能像我们一样生活安稳，有尊严的活着的每个人，去追根溯源，是不是一定会有一个节点，有一些人站出来，舍生取义，才有了今天的安宁。幸福就感恩，不幸就去奋斗，人应该如此对吧。
用影视渲染的方式极其快速地将观众代入了印度底层社会的惨状。印度的电影有着阿三的奇妙中二氛围。至于看了外国的电影，就开始无理由抨击、唾骂我guo司法的网友，我也不知道说什么好
小伙伴之前的情义和人生观价值观之前的碰撞，小新这次面对的问题有点现实和深刻啊，总体论得还可以，侦探故事也算有头有尾，小新父母的教育观很正，点赞～
千潮和小新父母的对话："在被别人嘲笑啊""这都是常有的事，他正是为了朋友而拼命努力""对于父母来说，输了也好，被嘲笑了也罢，只要他能挺起胸膛活下去，这样就足够了。"
一部绝望与希望交织的电影。
4.警察的那一套为了正义的暴力执法逻辑是真的恶心到了，都做到这位置了，警察局什么样你不知道？跑去听村民诉苦的戏码实属多余.
太理想化童话化了以致于现实更刺痛了，挺好的但我看完会想要世界毁灭（我的问题）
酸酸甜甜的恋爱，浓烈的友情，数不清的梦想。
elite！动画电影能做成这样真的可以说是天花板了。
无意义的事才最有意义呀～
影片如果能把歌舞部分去掉就更好了。//看得人炸毛，印度们到底是怎样的国家，这些警察对待自己国家的百姓，比纳粹对犹太人过之而无不及啊。但，又为什么印度老可以拍出这些揭自己短，丢自己丑的影片上映呢。// 一个不大好自问的问题。
技术层面太多初级的电影手段了，在严肃和嬉闹之间来回横跳，为了主题的深刻性多给一星。
ps：配乐很棒。
印度电影女主角开演半小时才登场很常见，但男主角快半个小时了才露面的印度电影，我是第一次见。一度以为我看错了片子，抗过前半小时的铺垫，后面越来越精彩。又是根据真是事件改编，低种姓成年人呆滞的目光和孩子们天真的眼神看着让人揪心，数次鸡皮疙瘩and数次热泪盈眶，Suriya最近的片子也开始走印度良心路线了？
走投无路的小民，在正义律师的帮助上走上维权之路。
揭露了半天屁用都没有 低种姓贱民命如草芥的现状也没有得到什么改变 而且神勇律师给自己加戏太多了 印度的许多社会新闻都让人怀疑穿越到了1000年前
一腔正气值得称道，但说实话，靠英明神武走路生风的主角来主持正义，靠嚎啕大哭来收获同情，靠信息不对等来营造悬念，都是有效却不太高明的电影手段，跟《辩护人》、《以父之名》之类的神作不太好比。4星赞的是对部落民劳动、葬礼和舞蹈的生动呈现，左翼电影总能跳出主流商业片之外，做出些新意。记得4年前也是在金奈，一位朋友带我访问了当地的一位左翼律师，她曾从矿产公司手中为部落民捍卫了不少利益。回来路上朋友对印度的这群法律卫士赞不绝口，说中国最缺的就是这样的“真左派”。我说中国更缺的是一个能允许他们自由活动还敢判他们胜诉的司法体系。然后，就没有然后了……石头不能做枕头，左右不能做朋友，虽然我觉得自己不过是实话实说。
