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.
同事强烈安利我看的剧，剧情挺常见，给特写女主突然长白头发就猜到接下来发展，不过一般跟病魔斗争时令人更感动的永远是亲情。全剧男女主最虐的点应该就是男主没有认出在雪地摔倒的衰老后的女主，明明她已经鼓起勇气用这副样子去见他，这真是让人一辈子都后悔的事。
度盘（后缀）：
爱而不得，转瞬即逝，美丽而早逝，枯萎又错过
像触不可及，两人从矛盾到理解，奶奶够暴力。
½ gin, ½ water and a squeeze of lemon.
感觉男主颜值忽高忽低orz中间还觉得小白替阿真难过挺无语的，救自己最重要吧，结果原来本来就是阿真。可惜世界上没有自杀后再借来的一百天，没有后悔的机会。哦对，学姐那对百合真的磕到了一会，但可惜小莉没有勇敢！！
1.5倍速都不觉得快
相爱的男女为表忠诚与持久的喜爱，常会说“无论你变的怎么样了，我都会爱你”。事实呢，若有一方偏离了正常时间的生长，比如早衰症，爱情会如故吗？我的樱花恋人是童话，现实里的童话多吗？
（不是否定企划本身）我可能更想看无灾无病的普通物语。
3大家害了他，所有忽视阿真的人？
我想说这是一部关于“生命力”的电影。不可回逆的身体的老去，依然有机会展现自己年轻的心态。
get不到松本穗香，中岛老师这部总算比之前的资源靠谱点了，至少作品完成度蛮高，演技也有可圈可点之处，然而还是挺没劲的，啥时候能演个好作品啊
“你从小就得到满满的爱，要爱这个人生久一点。”
让我想起我的外婆 她活着的时候可能是我妈妈在这个世界上最后一个真正在乎的人了
“你从小就得到满满的爱，要爱这个人生久一点。”
“我要爱这个人生久一点，毕竟人生只是一场漫长的寄宿生活”
中岛老师还是帅的，俗气到看看头的一分钟能知道结尾
3.5星吧，长尾弟弟演技真的挺不错的。一开始以为是校园霸凌，后来又以为是家庭暴力。但仔细想想，这些大概就是很多人曾面临过的问题吧，家人对自己理想的不理解，喜欢的人不喜欢自己，母亲的外遇……青春期真的很容易自我中心，以为全世界都抛弃了自己，但其实并不是这样。如果能帮助这样的人稍微认识到这一点，也算是这部作品的成功之处吧。
其实我还是蛮喜欢设定的，给了100天去找到附身的人和自己的死因，不去考虑找到或者找不到的后果，这个本身就很有意思，而后的一切就像是在拆盲盒，一点点挖掘自以为的真相。结局是阳光的，本希望更黑暗一些，更能反映社会的问题一些，一下就落了下乘，如果阳光的让人精神振奋也是好的，可给人的感觉太浅了，流于表面，就无聊了
女主像戚薇
