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.
恐怖片不讲逻辑就一点都不恐怖了，我只觉得他们吵闹，又扯。

Climax段落 錄影帶和看守所的‘平行剪接’ 視覺層面太狂了… 故事不太行，尤其最後結局整個弱掉了(硬包一個'親情'的大和解)… 整體算是JamesWan的中等偏下水準之作… 能引進到iQiYi上映(雖然難逃剪刀手) 可能也是因為這部有某種科學理論背景支持…
温子仁的创意总是很惊人，一个以实体方式寄生于女主身体内的反派，比纯精神分裂来的更令人毛骨悚然。除了部分剧情用了恐怖片老套路，总体气氛挺到位的。结尾就让我有点想不通了，女主怎么就突然觉醒了？我还以为女主要跟怪物同归于尽呢。另外最近的两部温氏恐怖片都已经走上“气氛+解谜”模式了，真正的超自然很少了
全程的音效还是不错的
故事开始的其实挺恶俗的 一步步揭露出邪恶的本质。后半段特效看的真过瘾和有趣。如果结局加百利杀人后越窗逃跑 消失在城市的夜色中 岂不更加不寒而栗！
这个标准双面人的点子也太棒了，看到童年录像的一刻是近来难得的震惊时刻；温导也有刻意在破颅而出这个点上发力；警察局被端之后阿姨打电话报警有被笑到；配乐一如既往沉浸感超强
前半段恐怖片，后半段动作片。即便有温子仁稳定出色的恐怖视听技巧坐镇，也不能掩盖剧本在人物行为逻辑上和剧情衔接上的简单粗暴和刻意。温子仁说要探索恐怖类型片的新鲜感，能感受到一些努力的尝试，但极强的形式主义没有好的故事平衡下还是会头重脚轻。但出色的制作水准也是强于多数恐怖类型片的。加百利这个角色没有空间进行感情铺垫，导致最后的温情说教的共情力减弱，结尾的电灯泡设计过于烂俗。更像是温子仁的试手之作。
催产素和哈雷彗星还是yyds，虽然专辑又在诉说自己的故事和以及关于一些body shame的态度，可专辑至始至终都在她的安全区内演唱，只能让人觉得这不够。脱离了电子音效的催产素和保密协议在这里面也显得有欠火候（但是后期有加电子音效）但是毕竟主打的是管弦乐团，因此也看得出在我思故我在桥段有了一个和乐团较大的互动。总之就是不能说不好，只能说还不够。
恐怖爽片？温子仁导演在题材创新上的魄力真是让人大开眼界！
这次的温导有点cult！很好玩！监狱一段简直要笑死了群演是认真的吗好浮夸哈哈哈哈哈哈哈！跳脱对他的固有印象，老温就差没拍文艺片了哈哈哈
2.光照会的首领居然是X教授！更可怕的是X教授居然打不过黑化版的旺达，万磁王点赞。
可以說是非常的狗血，特意去創造一個女孩可以穿越多元宇宙實屬沒有必要，然後黑化紅女巫全程追捕那女孩，就是為了跟自己的"孩子”團聚？這不純純的精神病？？再說她本身就可以感應和控制另一個宇宙的自己，那還有追捕的必要嗎？？
我出息了！我没开好运来看完了未删节版！孩子长大了！非常喜欢这种血腥的惊悚片~
therefore I am需要被拿出来单独表扬

我以为是纪录片，寻思了解了解她。结果是演唱会。碧梨的歌，我一直就不爱听。那首《哈雷彗星》不错！
