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.
…有些空洞 像为了吓人故意吓人 但是又没有吓到人
小女孩的演技还可以，但是这演个是个什么玩意？不知道这部电影想要表达什么？
我觉得挺真实的，毕竟主角练过拳击，各方实力角逐中挺有优势的，虽然出手寥寥无几，但是说着方言（感觉上像）一脸的憨厚笑容，觉得很像生活中的小混混，而且也不是一开始就开挂，很多人非要拿新世界相比较，我觉得各有千秋吧，我不认为直接上位就算了，这部电影的宗旨不也是说底层小混混最终即使当上大哥也要一无所有孤独终老了，男主挺有感觉，男主的相好和阿眉演员选的也有特点，其余黄金配角也都完成度挺高的，没必要捧一踩一，新世界刚上映时候也都是一片吹毛求疵的质疑嘛
不知怎么地就特别能共情，晚上被赶出情夫家里那一段看得我快窒息了。父母就是孩子的全世界，遇到垃圾父母就是毁人生
哪来的热血，哪来的激情，看了个寂寞！！之前有本类似的韩片，也是讲好兄弟互杀的就比这部好看多了！
慢慢爬到大哥的感受确实是不一样的，而且确实是有这种潜质才行，还是不要太手软，导致最后悲剧的发生
纯洁的少女孵化出了畸形的另一个自己
影视中的绝美佳肴——韩国黑帮
海报缇娜的面具是裂开的，暗示了在强压下她的人格分裂
哪来的热血，哪来的激情，看了个寂寞！！之前有本类似的韩片，也是讲好兄弟互杀的就比这部好看多了！
韩国为甚么一拍黑帮就非得在釜山（？），釜山方言真的是刚硬接地气。anyway，非常成熟的黑帮类型片，不成功便成仁。
7.5分在我心中是有的，男主最后杀了背后搞自己的梁冬，杀了30年交情但是杀了自己“儿子”的发小，却没有杀高利贷老板。证明他还是有仇报仇，没有杀红眼。
烂片 浪费我一个多小时时间 到底为什么要看这个破片 演技也不好 情节也没情结 特效也没特效 恐怖片？恐怖个毛线 何德何能 我们自己国家的烂片都没看 看芬兰的烂片？
具象化畸形家庭关系重压之下的产物 阴暗面和同源的互补关系表明本该是共生共存的 表面看似完美的家庭实际上裂痕和隔阂只是藏匿于其中 音效营造的氛围实在是诡异
韩国黑帮片一直都是拳拳到肉 刀刀见血的真实感 都是黑帮小头目人在江湖 身不由己 与卑劣的街头一起看 会有一个字头的诞生的感觉 提携自己的大哥 与自己的好兄弟 砍向他们的刀只要犹豫半点 死得就会是自己
结果最后看到医生女友睁眼，我就......
畸形的父母反哺出畸形的儿女
三星半。摊子铺得很大，人物多但线索少、冲突密但信息量小，差口气儿。
曹东七说的没错啊，阿媚的对象当陪酒的不让碰还喝那么贵的酒，自己都有对象了，还出来干陪酒的，装清高？不是乞丐也是臭要饭的。真拿所有人当怨肿了啊
粗制滥造的cult片，芬兰和北欧其他几国拍电影的水平差出了一个苍穹
