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.
1.喜欢的演员，喜欢的故事，华金凤尼克斯观剧记录:2015 《Her》→2021.1.10《小丑》→2022《呼朋引伴》，不仅角色跨度大，身材变化也大，影片质感也完全不同。2.作为2022年第一部电影，治愈如《如晴天，似雨天》，又有《海边曼彻斯特》的颓丧感，和2021最喜欢的国片《兰心大剧院》一样采用黑白色调，两次失踪，和最后树林里的戏都极其喜欢。今年应该还会补华金的一些片子，被他的魅力征服了。评分:8.5/10。
热情，情绪化，神经敏感的大人和孩子。
假借社会记录的语气，对城市的边缘进行了一次细腻的审视。孩子用早慧的视角探索成人世界的距离和单调，男人用对未来的想象对观众呼唤。自然光线和故事文本赋予了城市一种属于二十世纪的、怀念的美感，让私人的情感在庞杂的文学中找到位置、变得永恒。
焦虑症就真别去影院看这种不以情节取胜的电影了 自毁观影体验 但是两位主角演技真的太自然了 Joaquin Phoenix塑造角色的维度和能力真绝！坐等奥斯卡提名
过程还行，高潮部分失望。期待一下明年的琴酒吧
从小看到大的柯南了，小时候看的害怕长大了看得入迷
谢谢，终于把他看完了。如此多此一举的黑白片以及孩童视角的社会意义大可以拍游乐园游玩要么就堕落犯罪，其实大可不必端着和打磨着一股黑白色调来讨好观众。更为糟糕的是凤凰和那个小男孩的表演之好更加反衬了戏剧节奏之糟糕和行为无物。就此打住886～
未成年的柯南依然是拯救了上万的无辜生命的超级英雄
Thai. 终于把欠柯南的电影票补上了。 感动满满。
“你有没有想过未来？当然了，无论你的计划是什么，都赶不上变化。只会有很多意料之外的事情接踵而来，所以你只能……你必须努力，努力，努力，努力，…继续努力，不断努力，不停努力。”
啊啊啊近幾年來看過最好看的一部！絕無冷場！
1.让男人尝试一下全职带孩子就知道女人有多么不易。
非常平淡，但实际挺治愈的一部电影，最近也在思考有一个自己孩子是怎样的感受，结论是确实可能想象不出来，至少电影给了一种不错的可能
假装深刻 假装有趣 假装灵气 其实可看性不强 适合网红咖啡厅24循环圈播放 做打卡拍照的背景
老人与小孩（安哲罗普洛斯），女人与小孩（齐豫），这个是中年与小孩。电影整体凑合吧。演完小丑的菲尼克斯很难突破啊 。。。
最后，它有我所有看过的作品中最吸引人的片尾。完毕。
This film gives me peace of mind.
我觉得还行吧，但是也找不到小时候看柯南的感动也惊喜！
警校组😭😭😭剧情大概就是看了一半能猜到全部吧🥲
