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.
这个ip真的不错 可是第二部明显对不起这些人物 故事凌乱拼凑 主旨立意走偏 可惜
天啊 又长又臭 看的时候多次暂停看还有多久//为什么第一部犯的错还要再犯一次 导演没有复盘的吗？//会不会写剧情啊？//唯一的优点：人设 //
依然跟近十来年老爷子导演的不少作品一样更像是一部“成人童话”，能看到《完美的世界》跟《老爷车》的影子。其实真要说的话这部的水准在其导演的电影里可能只能是中等甚至于中偏下的，可是实在是太想念这种“一老一小还带个非人类动物角色”(那只公鸡堪称“抢戏大神”，就是没能再让其在这个故事里多承担一些分量)的故事配置了。故事线简单明了，可处处透露着一股藏不住的真挚(这种情感上的拿捏也算是东木老爷子最拿手的之一了)；当然，这样直白到有些过于平的故事可能也是考虑到了老爷子的实际年龄，毕竟头一次感觉到他说台词的时候真有些“有气无力”了(有段驯服野马的戏都是远景，估计也是因为只能用替身上了)，不得不感叹尽管老爷子依然健朗，可还是服老了。三星半。
就凭这黑白的肤色，也绝对是爸爸妈妈亲生的好不好
没啥意思哎，有些好东西最好还是不要出续集。
就凭这黑白的肤色，也绝对是爸爸妈妈亲生的好不好
我已经和你拥抱过一次了父亲，这辈子的喜爱之情都已经表达完了。
终究比第一部差一点，最后结尾稍微肉麻了些，其他部分都很好，还是希望能有下一部
已经没有了表达欲，只想展现铁汉的柔情，看着这个年纪的东木老爷子自导自演，也未免不是一种见证历史。
智障老舅有点东西啊哈哈哈哈 还有那个 do you have a piano in the laboratory? 严谨极了
我能说我爱死亚当斯一家了吗 他们演屎都是香的 就因为他们是Addams！Bravo！
可能因为我第一次看亚当斯一家的动画版 我竟然觉得不错 特别是赞同一下真人版的还原程度简直绝了；感觉mother真的是非常非常好的好妈妈 又优雅漂亮 永远尊重孩子 不会因为是自己孩子就要求要怎么样 除了不救自己儿子被女儿明杀之外 可以说很完美的妈妈
就看的开心吧，剧情老套简单，但谁不喜欢这种价值观，人类比怪物可怕多了，做自己吧，歌不错
这部更像是长得奇奇怪怪的一家人一起推一条拍过很多遍的剧情线了，公路旅行家庭关系疯狂科学家。。每个人在这一过程中的反应也都太正常人了。或许是因为我预设的期待值过高吧
我真的受不了合成兽，那个鸟出来的时候毛骨悚然
一直期待着劲爆场面，但通篇最暴力的竟然是一只鸡，哈哈。老头岁数大，不易，不知道怀抱大妞的时候，还有感觉吗。
这几年Eastwood的作品风格都淡淡的很美，看着总是那么让人浑身都舒坦。有时候你会觉得为什么有些人好像只是照着菜谱做菜，却能做的那么完美。谁想到还能看到90岁的Eastwood上马。P.S.摄影真的真的美爆了值超5星
看了第一集愛上了Addams Family的人設，今次可能期望太高，沒有了Addams Family的感覺，就是普通的動畫片，有點悶，連笑點都不多。為什麼不好好利用他們有趣的人設？
不知道老爷子设定男主是多少岁，但看着他用龙钟的姿态钻进驾驶座，蹒跚地踮步做出拳击的架势，僵硬地拥着风韵美女，就不由得觉得真的人要服老才可以啊。
Madison , would you do me the honor of being my wife?
