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.
对于who made tony sopranos这个问题也没有得到深刻的解答，感觉对于所有人物的影响都是匆匆带过。
感觉这年头黑帮电影如果没有点火爆的动作场面，或者悬疑的剧情，已经不香了，有点怀旧的味道
没看过剧听着旁白自述观影会一路莫名其妙，影片跟旁白毫无关系，很尴尬。
看的很乱, 首先拍的一般般, 拍的调调很高但是故事完全不吸引人, 第二是感觉和电视剧没接上. 看睡着了.
法米加非常有异国情调，虽然剧情我是一点都没看懂
三星半，不像前傳的「前傳」。視覺是懷舊的，語境是現代的，但時代元素、借古鑑今的連結度實在弱。關於Tony是怎樣煉成的，亦只是蜻蜓點水。本片最大的作用，可能就是叫觀眾再看一次昔日神劇。
看到最后其实挺有意思的，三个假钞将众多的人物联系到了一起，让落魄的小说家重新找到了写作的灵感。
劇本比較大膽地在虛虛實實中跳躍，虛實之間處理的還是比較到位。多線索並不混亂。但是整個電影乏善可陳，亮點不多。
在我們活著的時候，身邊總有奇妙的事情發生，並且在短時間內我們一無所覺，一無所知！
没看过剧的观众表示除了几个头发的笑点 实在平淡无奇 女性角色比男性角色要出色得多
没看过原剧，但就这部电影来说，我觉得还是不错啊。把当时当地的黑帮说得不错
西西里家族和小黑哥的战斗 不够狠不够有戏 线索有点儿乱套 勉强看一看
快进吧，徒步总会有这种意外。但是每次的精神享受也是其他无法比拟的，没去当驴友的人体会不了，可能是为了放空，猎险，突破自我极限，但是，自己为自己行为买单就好了。
白男糟粕回魂，如此“白男”式的电影中还单独插入了一条和主体剧情毫无关系的黑人线，貌似是暗示黑人崛起白人没落，实则整部电影传递出的思想十分糟粕封建、白人至上、男权至上、歌颂丑陋。
还蛮有意思的，但是没有想象的有意思，有一点伊坂的味道，可又差点火候的感觉。风pon戴眼镜帅得认不出……
两星半，东一榔捶西一棒头的，感觉像是看了一集没头没尾的电视剧。视角混乱，单场戏的叙事效率太低，感觉就是挨个儿点了一下soprano家花名册，或者看了一个饭拍的前传的感觉
娜奥米啊，恨你戏红人始终不红，终究是个丫鬟的命。
在一众慢节奏的日影中本片算快的，最起码开篇有让人往下看的欲望（我对日影真的很宽容了😅）结局是有点虎头蛇尾，但其实从有人借三万有人还三万开始就能感觉到这三万里应该有文章。风pon确实演技杠杠的，一众来打酱油的实力派女优们也表现不俗，七濑妹子的北陆方言软乎乎的，没有本地人味儿那么冲哈。
剧情比拿滚子压过十遍的柏油马路还平，前面铺垫太久了，消磨了我对高潮部分的全部期待，更何况这个高潮部分本来也没有想象中那么跌宕起伏。
大概说了一个不入流的二流子作家 喜好把别人隐私枉加猜测写成书。博了眼球被告后导致穷困潦倒 去小县城做龟公时撞上些世故的故事。整体完成度不错，演员表现 除了有点日系特有的形式主义外，没啥硬伤。其他器材道具摄影布景等等相关工种，没有明显瑕疵。属于专业团队，按部就班出品。只是这叙事方法，想搞个多线叙事主线穿的黑幽默。结果玩显了。
