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.
能get到她们之间的感情诶，第一次kiss那里好青涩，两位演员演得好，小动作把握得很精妙，有一些场景很唯美，叫家长那里好搞笑哈哈。总让我想到《莫里斯》，先开始的那个人却早早说了放弃，有点唏嘘。心悦很耐看，神似陈妍希。美中不足的地方是心悦的成长线乱七八糟，分开得太唐突了。
我不理解。。。感觉想说的很多但是又都没说好。
客观地说三星吧，看介绍是导演的处女作，电影中规中矩，故事还比较完整，但有些单薄了，镜头和配乐也都略显稚嫩。但我对这个故事不太客观，加一星。
等我看到吻戏没被马赛克挡住的那一版才算真正看过这部电影
「會遺憾的 但怎樣都希望對方是幸福的」看完反而記住了最後素人採訪的這句話
除了不喜欢结局，不想接受她跟别人结婚之外，其他都很好。唉，还是在等，还是在遗憾，但仍觉美好。
尽管某种电影99.999%是BE，但这部是让我觉得最刻意的。铺垫了一堆小清新的学生时代回忆，以及长大重逢后的纠缠，最后“为什么没能在一起”，婚礼上的各种表现，剧本呈现出了“过度留白”，可能在观众看不到的地方，有着30岁以前不与异性结婚就会判处死刑当场执行的故事设定吧。
不能接受后面的结局，既然都这么爱了还结什么婚
这个泡沫在剧终的婚礼呼应并且破碎了，碎得体无完肤，碎在了观众的脸上，化成热泪。
两位女主角的种种行为用我那个年代的话来形容的话就是“好非主流”啊～！
很老套的剧情 前面会觉得很尴尬 但是还是看进去了 在操场勇敢回吻，镜头围绕她们旋转配上音乐，她们太勇敢了在这么多同学的注目下，这份孤勇一瞬间有感动到我。后面婚礼一直在期待其实她的婚礼是和她，最后还是be了，也不知道为什么我哭得稀里哗啦。
还有就是nmb为什么片源那么少，听粤语不懂阿咩
谭善言真的帅到炸了，光看她的脸就可以支撑我停住快进
比网剧还mv 对lgbt片子一直很宽容但这部不值得
剧情很老套，有些场景超尴尬，但最后哭了，因电影里的感情想到自己。陪sis去看的，如果不是她说要去我自己应该不会去。
就算是只是爱情片，也太差了，女二演技很不错，像很多清纯系的mix，以后应该能不错吧。
我们曾经的亲密是真实的吧，那种情感，对你来说或许只是友情，但对我来说，那就是爱情
你永远不知道
劇情難睇到毁我三官五官九官，唯有談善言拯救所有🥺
