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.
没什么东北特色 就中间踢场子还挺牛逼的 其他一般般 谢苗这一年拍了这是多少电影 最近老看他了
今天看的第三部电影，属实看笑了。纯纯为了打架而打架。不过打得不错。
到底从哪个角度能看出来这个故事发生在东北？从头到尾都听不着东北话特别让人失望，减一星！但我也觉得这已经是这几年中国网络电影里面算非常好看的了，至少打戏还挺好看的。
原来是谢苗主演，之前没注意，故事一般，打斗不错。
最近看了两部谢苗的片子了，另外一部是叶问😏
老丈人什么时候受的伤，什么时候又犯了包庇罪？
动作片后继有人了！谢苗打戏是亮点，剧本跟配角有待提高！
有太多导火线的影子，要是结局就卡在老三做大巴车走了就再加一分。
很不错，如果多一些东北元素就更好了，只有岳父一个人演技在线。
可惜了 剧本太弱 不然苗哥可能就翻红了 希望以后有好武打剧多找找苗哥
网大版导火线，现在年轻一代打戏能看的也只有谢苗了。他需要一个大制作。
打戏很棒，情节有点简单，不过数字货币洗钱什么的操作还是有的。现在年轻人能演得出动作戏的，好像也只有谢苗了吧
谢苗的打戏是真不错，小成本网大也在尽力拍出质感，给他一个大制作，我感觉他能成为下一个吴京
谢苗，儿时看过的童星，不应该这么埋没了。武指和导演挺好的，武打场面很逼真，不过少数镜头差点力道。事件紧贴时代，所以剧本结构简单，但选材可以，不错。因为片长一个半小时，节奏快，不啰嗦，看的舒服。整片三星半太少，四星又有点过，但是根据实际情况，好片子需要好的制作环境和条件，已经很不错了。希望会有更好的作品出来。另外，说句招黑的话，单从拍摄角度和动作的逼真程度，个人感觉不比战狼差，甚至略胜一筹，当然我只是门外汉，只是一个观众，只拿一对一的场面来比较，战狼有夸张且有蜻蜓点水的嫌疑。那种虚幻的疼痛感，我在本片能感受到，5星鼓励
20211006真的很不错！故事情节简单，但是能讲明白，讲透彻，没毛病，真的很不错了！可以说是良心制作！这比那种动辄好几个亿的国产烂片强太多了！！！
不错，剧情不简单却不做作，动作打戏确实荷尔蒙爆棚。谢苗这是要一直拍网大了吗，也可以适当拍一些剧院商业片啊。
fortieth

模仿痕迹太重，但作为网大在当前这个创作环境中已实属不易。
还可以啊。电影就该好好讲故事。不用刻意生硬技巧。
