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.
虽然血腥暴力肮脏缺乏主线，但想象力太丰富了。
可能有文化，宗教隔离导致的不理解，难感受。总之个人角度觉得是过誉了
这猎奇的风格，不适的画面，宗教的讽刺，性本恶，人是罪恶的，神也是。
在我眼里真的不能再垃圾了！
全程无对白 剧情方面见仁见智 但这种类似定格动画的方式还是挺有感觉的
疯狂、神秘、混乱、无序、破烂、腐败、惊奇、诡异、恐怖、恶心、不适……真人特效+定格动画，想象力爆炸，模型装置牛逼，基本上是奇观展示，没有逻辑和故事。最后玩了一把创世大爆炸，梦幻联动2001，致敬了库布里克，导演是星战特效师……
牛逼闪闪，充满想象力，也运用了几乎一切可以搭配的不同材质的绘画雕塑装置等艺术风格 以及大胆地真人与动画与不同像素级别的特效影像结合，从头到尾就是人类命运寓言
极度猎奇和重口，在怪诞的现实和迷幻的梦境中反复横跳，血肉朋克启示录，对观众太不友好，只能3分。。
虽然你是疯神，但是此刻在豆瓣上，你是我的神！
装备的像前苏联潜水员的外星人被解刨后肚子里的异形婴儿被榨汁磨成了金粉撒向魔镜后，宇宙大爆炸，然后诞生了生命……我看到的是这个内容吗？看过了似乎又没看过系列#
随便剪出来一段，就是个绝佳的短片，这波表现主义赢麻了
《2001:太空漫游》＋《潜行者》＋《生命之树》……？好吧，这种概括其实是一种思维的懒惰。这部电影，拥有着无与伦比的原创性。
看的时候平板正好刷到了阿诺的江苏比赛现场，突然觉得这个电影也没那么抽象了..
压根没看懂。疯神就是人自己吧。感觉导演反宗教且厌恶人类。那些个畸形血肉模糊真是怪恶心怪脏的
邪典版《2001太空漫游》。从血肉泥筑到废土朋克、机械生命到彩色异形，这是无比瑰丽之想象力创造出的恐怖美学集大成者。故事是混乱的、时间是混乱的、世界观同样是混乱的，在不知所云的咿呀低语中，没有一种生物能保持理智，又或许只有舍弃理智才能在这个疯狂的地底世界生存下去。
配乐和美术值三星，一星给不明觉厉的故事，凌晨看这个属实是跟没有熬夜反而是做了个噩梦一样。
a weird yet inspiring journey
惊人的想象力，但是没讲好一个故事，整个电影就像一台没有发动机的极品跑车。
7.7/10 铁锈与血肉的残忍组合，难以言表的疯狂世界
看睡着了。真不如去看史云梅耶的短片。简直比纪录片还无聊。两星给道具和美术，怎么说，感觉不适合电影这种载体来展现。
