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.
前40分钟拍的很好 ，人物交代清楚简练 ，抢银行和警匪枪战都拍的挺带感。后面上了救护车进入正题后，拍的有些碎了，虽然一直在追捕，但紧张感下降很多。最大的问题是这片各个角色间的情感转变有些生硬，不是那么有说服力。总体还是不错的，如今的好莱坞警匪动作片拍成这样可以了。哦，对了，这片利用无人机的摄影走位虽然有炫技之嫌，但确实是炫，好看。3星半
还是那句话，盗火线到底影响了全世界多少的导演啊，导致人人都想追求一个完美的街头枪战
3.5。从粗糙的片头开始就带有上世纪好莱坞动作片的古早味，加上吉伦哈尔20年不变的脸，除了超夸张的无人机摄影几乎看不出任何2020s电影的氛围，还挺怀旧的。剧情就是too dumb to be serious，在完全的怀疑暂停中笑了两个小时。
太gta了，可惜了画面和风格，穿越机角度晕，故事没内容，硬凑了两小时
3. 人物上更有意思，本来主角可能就该算有仨，结果次要人物还一大堆。这里完全不是在塑造人物，而就纯粹是各点一笔给你。
感觉就像占了天时地利，然后就给人玩坏了。明明有好片基因，却后天摆烂。可惜了…
还是那句话，“电影院的环境会放大人对一部片子的爱憎。”
剧情弱智。全程摄影机跑的比车都快，镜头就没固定过，反而烘托不出紧张气氛了。
而且晃镜头看着会累，就是没晃出《谍影重重》的感觉。🙃
你这个不会变形的救护车拍的比会变形的还牛逼。真正的全程无尿点，这大概是卖拷贝老师献给内燃机时代最后的情书了。V8的轰鸣声响彻阳光明媚的LA，我看完了立刻就想二刷你受得了吗？好久没看过如此纯正的美国动作大片了，爽！
在枪战片的外衣之下，本片更为注重人性的挖掘，宏大与刺激的场景虽然比比皆是，在节奏上却轻缓了下来，稍显沉闷，好在对全片未构成致命影响。综合而言，值得四颗星，完成度较高，也仍有提升的空间。
悲剧降临的家庭睡一觉安稳也是奢侈，生命交换的勋章连一粒病毒也无法抵挡。镜头在城市建筑和枪火来往中漂移，义气在童年碎片和成人世界中散尽。儿时钻进遗弃的车厢亦能坚不可摧，如今躲进密封的铁皮却满是漏洞，黑白皮肤从未将亲情割裂，团圆结局却要以血色祭奠。明明是你再次将枪口对准了手足，在诀别时他却唯有对你说出抱歉。
还是挺爽的，镜头各种飞，美式肌肉警车各种亮相摆造型，追车戏太长了有点无聊
仿佛是迈克贝的demo reel，纯追车愣追了俩小时还是有点厉害。而且这么多年了，他还是这么花里胡哨热爱爆炸，干劲很足啊。但把dt那一小片正常开车十分钟就能开完的区域拍得显得这么大，每十分钟就要空中镜头大空翻又让人觉得是在预算不足打肿脸充胖子。
强盗专业，救护专业，警察专业，匪帮专业，致敬专业，专业至上。
一个勃起的男人，可惜硬度不够，这是看完后的第一感觉，不愧是迈克尔boom，吉伦哈尔就是背锅侠，斯德哥尔摩综合症，反派都是工具人，大杂烩，槽点满满，爽到过头！
动作戏还是不错的，可惜剧本太差了，只能看个热闹，3200w美元的买卖，不用踩点不用彩排带着自动武器说走就走，就算只是当个司机你也得了解一下周围的交通状况，以及备用撤退计划吧，跟闹着玩一样。两兄弟的矛盾冲突缺乏逻辑，女主圣母光环拉满，警方处置莽撞能力极差，作为高潮的多车分散逃脱速激也早就用过了。勉强给个及格分吧
在电影的世界里，世界观的撕裂总是源于情节线的崩坏。
SOS 好莱坞电影已经政治正确到这个地步了吗？吉伦哈尔真的很适合这种psycho的角色 我什么时候才能再在电影院看到他啊！
合格的商业片，开局半小时就开始抓人眼球，紧张刺激，警匪片该有的都有了，不要去想什么教育意义，或者什么拍片逻辑，真要什么所谓的合情合理的话，估计就剩纪实片能看了。对普通观众来讲，电影好坏很简单，要么看睡着，或者根本看不下去。要么抓住观众的心，有欲望一直看完。这类电影本就是放松心情的。对比一些国内网络电影都能上三星，这个可以值得四星。
