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.
有点赛博朋克味道的故事背景设定真是我的菜，可惜故事本身太普通了，但是我休这么卖力，不多给2星怎么对得起我休这么馋人的肉体呢。
未来的世界都成了威尼斯水城，并随时有被淹没的风险，于是人们希望沉迷于美好的过去，便诞生了用水来重拾记忆的职业。狼叔正好是从事这个职业的，突然某一天来了一位女主寻找钥匙，于是狼叔开启了一场自认为浪漫的爱情，实则女主只是为了达到偷走芯片的目的。之后的剧情就是狼叔不顾一切，要去寻找失踪的女主，不听人劝想去证明爱情是存在的。然后就陷入了一场家族的政治阴谋，抢走的芯片是一个可以证明集团大佬婚外情且有私生子的事实，而大佬的亲儿子为了遗产，找杀手干掉了相关人员，以及摧毁芯片，这就有了狼叔邂逅女主的情节，当然最终女主虽然死了，但是也告诉了狼叔爱情是存在的。这是一部披着未来科幻的软科技片，先进的科技只是辅助，实则是为探讨人性与爱情
我还挺吃这种类型的片子，神秘美女加深情帅哥。休杰克曼为情所困、为情所伤的形象简直不要太完美，评论有批评女导演的，但我觉得女导演还是很知道怎么触动同类心理的点的，最少我被触到了。遗憾吴彦祖戏份少。
I like to see the end of the world in all its forms
题材不错，为啥拍出来感觉就不好看呢？或许如豆油所说，我想看动作片，最后却成了爱情片？
很喜欢片中未来水世界中城市的那种衰败感 男主整个就一根筋到底的恋爱脑 所有的科幻 悬疑设定就为了讲一个老套路的爱情故事:美艳女子误嗑药并卷入了黑帮大佬 黑警 地产暴发户的破事中 为自保假装接近并爱上男主 没想到后面真的爱上了…吴彦祖为什么要讲一句英文并夹带一个中文词语…
乍一看下来还不错 仔细想想bug太多 惊喜就是吴彦祖的中英语 坦迪和安吉拉让我仿佛回到西部世界刚出那天
与其这样还不如多花点时间介绍一下大水是怎么来的，昼夜颠倒是怎么回事
Poor Guisunzi！其实设定还不错的，写个厉害点的剧本不香吗？
就是个有钱富二代为了独占遗产所以要找人杀了自己同父异母的弟弟的故事而已 其他设局啊美人计啊找人啊全都只是附带产物 城市存亡世界危机其实和这件事没有很大关系 简介写的过于夸张 女主搞的很神秘因为会有什么惊天秘密结果就这 前JC出去干活能不能干脆利落一点连把枪都没有还能这么简单就让目标逃走也是感觉非常随便 有些台词写的还行 但男主独白过于神神叨叨 而且说故事那段重复了3遍插入过于明显 最后男主沉溺于回忆每天24小时不间断播放和女主的甜蜜过去这TM真不是什么羞耻play吗OTZ 总之本质是个没什么新意的随便套了点科幻和末日的爱情故事 没什么意思
随着算力速度的的加快过去总是容易被太快遗忘
阿祖的英文混中文实在太逗了，话说这已经不是查看别人的记忆了，这直接是调监控了吧，极度无聊的剧本，把狼叔都能整成一个猥琐油腻大叔，最后的结局还行，要不是自己宣传是科幻片还能给它加一星
略顯無趣，不斷上漲的海平面奇觀跟要入水才能催眠其實很好的呼應，但拍得寡淡了些。
街上高中生都比男主心理年龄大🙃吴彦祖一口二手北京腔是什么鬼🙃最讨厌这种女人穿最少衣服没事就哭男人一套接一套西装拯救世界的设定
真的大失所望，看预告片以为是能媲美异次元骇客级别的好片，结果就为了点情情爱爱低质展开，设定也不疼不痒。既不赛博朋克，也不末世危机。主人公不紧不慢地谈着恋爱，保镖因为对方是军人就不执行命令，真不错，这剧情真不错，给我看吐了
saint joe 圣祖。金刚狼也只能接盘阿祖。
没啥意思，不建议浪费时间，浪费了这些好演员
还可，稍微有点惋惜的感觉升起。阿祖的饭盒领的太快了吧，死得也好惨。。。
Don't Look Back in ______
尽管故事讲全乎了，可还是bug太多呀。。。
