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.
确实不错，网络电影秒杀了今年绝大多数国产电影。打戏也好看
拍的可以，有传统武侠那味儿了，就是剧情还是有些单薄
故事太简陋了。我觉得中国电影不好看的最主要原因就是编剧不行，导演能凑合，故事不能糊弄。
故事虽简单制作却精良的快消费网大，还算酣畅。
在网大里算的很精良了，国产武侠也需要多多唤醒了，另外谢苗真帅啊！
很緊凑的片子，臺語對話太有味道了，還有羅大佑客串。雖然最後高捷那裏有點交代不明，以及一些東西靠旁白念出來顯得略微“缺乏誠意”，但是光譚志剛的表現就足以抵消這些瑕疵。
短小精悍，丝毫不拖泥带水，动作戏份也是可圈可点，可就是这样的作品只能上网大，因为不会有什么票房，疫情时代，还要忍受其他垃圾作品荼毒影院。
3.一些影像的构图十分具有电影美感。反派弑兄时，通过幕布剪影展现了这画面，然后幕布破碎，反派恶狠狠而残忍的眼神出现了。
身怀绝技的盲眼“捉刀人”成瞎子为惨遭灭门和凌辱的酒家女踏上寻求公道的复仇之路，以一敌百只为解不白之冤，光是这条剧情主线就足够吸引目光，更别说整部戏打斗动作真实过瘾，画面精致质感到位，古装犯罪动作爽片真是又独特又震撼。以刀惩恶，正邪较量，眼盲心不盲的捉刀人实乃真英雄。
谢苗真的太缺好片拍了，可惜啊，这本子就是镖人+龙飞+浪客剑心
在国产同类型中算是中上乘作品，进一步说明，很多电影还是故事讲得太长太烂。
时长短，好处是没有注水的剧情，坏处是没时间渲染感情。喝了碗酒就得帮人家找公道，那个时局动荡的年代有几个平头百姓能得到公道？捉刀十年，这点事情都能刺激到抱打不平，说不太过去。起码再交代几点让瞎子有足够的理由拔刀。好在这部片就摆明了给你看动作，文字不多费口舌~最后飞踢破窗的镜头有点致敬的意味。
挺贫穷的制作，就那么几个场景翻来覆去地用；挺老套的故事，基本看了开头就能猜到结局。但是这片子偏偏能用寒碜的预算达到了非常高的完成度，整体的道具质感、打光、武术全都不掉链子，有几段镜头还挺惊喜，总算是让人感受到了导演的那份追求，挺难得的。谢苗的表演不算出彩，但让人印象深刻，很有成为青年张涵予的潜质，加油啊。
5上学，谢苗错过了港片最后的辉煌，也躲过了中国影视业的大萧条，等到学成出山，容貌变得普通，不讨喜，昔日的影迷和伯乐也风流云散，这时候他又面临选择，是继续在小制作里摸爬滚打，还是消费仅剩的名望经商走穴？网大里面多次打磨。
5.5，网大与B级片的本质差别取决于视听刺激的尺度大小，以及因小成本大尺度而生的一套游荡于主流美学之外的工艺框架。片子的核心叙事任务是塑造盲侠形象及其与乱世的交锋，借用的元素都不罕见，远有《座头市》《修罗雪姬》，近有《伸冤人》，但东西不新鲜，尺度又不够大。官僚阶级玩弄百姓，没有什么让人有生理反应的残忍画面，同样，主人公匡扶正义砍瓜切菜也没有什么溅血的复仇快感。只有放在国产网大里，遵循基本的元素与系统叙事原则才能作为优点突出，至少80%的戏都是围绕人物来做的。反派朝廷爪牙身份的背后有着曾经的黑恶势力努力攀附权贵以合法化的线索，整个交锋是有绝技无地位的民间人士与被用后即弃的工具之间的死斗。不知是否有审查因素在，这条完全可以多些笔墨再丰富丰富，掌权者的势力集体缺席，他们会纵容反派如此飞扬跋扈吗？
简单，干脆，网大精品了，似乎比“电视电影”更好一些
真没觉得动作设计的多好，宇文明明是个射手，非要上前送人头。咱就是说明知道对手是个瞎子还这么厉害，肯定要针对他的听觉下手，结果没一个正常人。故事也简单得离谱，没有时间让角色丰满。
堪称日本《座头市》。制作上面看得出挺用心的，虽然故事简单粗暴，可好在认真讲完了，值得鼓励。
网大其实已经很成熟了，节奏明快，画面服化道动作戏全都在线【岂止是在线。。。可以说制作精良】。假以时日，也许真的能看到古装版的囧威客
谢苗网大界熬出头了？有点无限之住人的意思。联瑞参与，剧本再磨磨大银幕可以有。
