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.
不亏以前是一对儿，相隔5年，加菲甩出一部与前女友在2016奥斯卡风光无限的《LA LA LAND》同样高口碑的音乐剧！巧了，两部在豆瓣同样8.4，连片名也都是AAB格式。
半自传式呈现音乐剧作家的艺术人生。故事和音乐都不太出色。
在30岁生日前夕看这片再适合不过了！临近三十岁仍旧碌碌无为的我，是否也该努力创作，实现梦想呢？用歌唱出生活，满注活力，情真动听。看来我还是不适合看这种纯歌舞片，剧情平淡到爆炸，丝毫看不到人物的闪光点和动人之处，若非加菲灵气可爱的演绎，这片的看点会大打折扣。Alexandra Shipp美到360°无死角！！！快看完才知道原来Jonathan Larson便是大名鼎鼎的《吉屋出租》创作者，看完才知道导演原来是林漫威！全程没认出Vanessa Hudgens。
怀念他们一起长大，儿时的下午最美好
在拥有这样的体验之后，还有什么理由去怀疑加菲尔德。
口水歌真不好听，故事线和情感线毫无波澜，技法一般，言之无物，题材吃香是唯一的亮点吧。加菲猫煽情起来，他不尴尬，别人很尴尬。
爱乐之城x横道世之介x火花…的感觉，没想到有一天能看到这种融合
塑造了纽约氛围下的艺术殉道者，让底层的人们感同身受。一份食物，10块钱，一个订单，就能让他们开心很久。音乐与生活同样丰富，五味杂陈的感觉。
音乐剧电影最关键的是歌要好听，然而这部没有。加菲怎么有一点点像脸叔了!

整部片子相当浮躁，剧情浮躁，表演浮躁，连歌曲都浮躁。难道真正焦虑的是编剧？没剧情就算了，主要是配乐为什么会那么吵，还好后半小时安静了一小会儿，难道是我老了。3.6
恐惧还是爱？改变世界！行动远远胜于言语！——
不熱衷音樂劇，也不關注百老匯，很多隱藏彩蛋get不到。當勵志故事看三星半。
虽然讲的是逐梦演艺圈的故事，但融入了奔三焦虑话题，所以也可以跟普通观众建立联系。LMM自己的音乐剧被别人导演舞美做得华丽，自己导演别人的故事却能做到不追求浮华、选择最适合故事的表现形式。Andrew Garfield演得很好，希望明年奥斯卡能拿个提名。
看到有些朋友因为某些缘故都会拿它与另一部音乐片做对比，但很遗憾，各方面，各方面它都无法比拟LaLaLand. 包括感情线
歌曲的旋律不错，但歌词更像口水歌，至于人物原型，由于对舞台剧零认识，艺术家的悲歌，作品都是创作者死后才能发扬光大，身价倍增，因为已绝迹！
形式会让人产生一种疲倦感。如果不是音乐的忠实爱好者的话，可能看电影会非常吃力。好像就真的是在看音乐剧，但可能大多数观众进来之前不知道是这样的。在音乐叙事和现实叙事来回切换，有些不适应。P.S.加菲那个嘴，他是故意的么。。。
每一个演员都唱功了得。独白部分都很赞。最喜欢的三首歌是Boho、Sunday和come to your senses。估计没人能对它们说不吧。
