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.
就很流水线但是还可以哈哈哈哈哈哈至少不难看，虽然太过好莱坞PC童话，为了欧阳才看到嘻嘻
男女主演得就像笑话 没想到斯皮尔伯格也爱上翻拍 并且与原版无异 唱得也难听
虽然有点假但作为online dating支持者，还是要给个三星鼓励一下哈哈哈。Jimmy超cute！以及他为何长着一张华人程序员的脸。。。
真的很一般，从舞蹈到表演到角色。故事情节更是令人发指地莫名其妙，一个傻妞儿竟然为了一个素昧平生的男的，连哥哥被杀都不管，依然在当晚上床。整个情感并不令人信服，看完一头雾水，只觉得傻。通篇的种族歧视和没有翻译的西班牙文台词非常令人不愉悦。眼前一直闪现底特律。
两个主角烂到我边看边骂斯皮尔伯格晚节不保的程度
Ansel Elgort大白嗓唱歌好难听！发际线还堪忧！
配角们真的很牛配角们的唱跳真的很牛
前半段节奏紧凑，从中间开始垮掉，变慢了，爱情发生得非常草率，没有突出男女主角除了一见钟情是怎么培养感情的，人物成了棋子机械地唱词
2022.3.3 同样是一部因为疫情被延期上映的片！挺期待的 没看过61版的但有斯皮尔伯格导演就是看的理由。本来说好3.2上线的 2.24提前流出了？！但是因为过几天就有官方字幕了没有人愿意做熟肉..等了6天等来了所谓的官方字幕 但西语部分不是照样没字幕！先不说电影 单从故事来说是真没啥意思 斯皮尔伯格来拍也没用啊 如果61版也是这样的情节那是真太失望了！片中多次强调讲英语不知道为什么 有点脑瘫 他们波多黎各人之间还不能说西语？我也看了这片才知道波多黎各属于美国啊 简单说就是两个帮派的故事 一个是美国人的帮派 一个是波多黎各的 互看不顺眼 经常打架跟小学生一样..一次舞会女主本有一个舞伴但遇到男主相爱 但后一次打架 哥哥杀了男二 男主杀了哥哥 哥哥都被男主杀了女主还跟他睡..最后舞伴杀了男主
要是说是汤姆霍珀拍的，我能理解，但这是史匹堡，我只能理解为“情怀”吧。
因为，就，真的不太好嘛。
看完想重温《真爱至上》/美国人的圣诞十一月就开始了
white af but still cute enough 也在反套路的路上走出了自己的可爱风格 吉米欧阳的角色可爱细腻的小型忠犬终于不是overhype stereotype 我可太开心了
情节内容和顺序上的调整，补强了原故事的逻辑链条，只是睡了杀人凶手那个最大的bug之一还是原封不动的照搬了过来。也加入了一定的底层白人困境、与移民的冲突和女性主义等当代改良元素。只是这样的话还有必要拍歌舞片吗？歌舞片段的表现力远及不上当年的话，倒还不如改编成一个当代故事剧情片。
我觉得还行啊 圣诞温馨浪漫电影 很符合当下的主题 也没有很烂俗
勉强看完前一个小时，后面看不下去了，比较无聊
怎么说呢 女主有brain damage 而男主是恋爱脑。This story doesn't age well at all.
我是看了个罗朱么……某首曲子还行。歌舞部分拍的还行。关键是，白男比较碍眼，实在是忍不住那个救世主的傻样，女主还是挺可爱的。还有，麻烦下次别整那种显得男主很高大女主很娇弱的机位了行不，说的就是那个小拳拳砸胸口那个镜头。可以理解好评的人和差评的人了。（里头种族歧视和白人排外的台词有点让人不适。
街头上的种族矛盾在歧视与傲慢中愈演愈烈，边缘化的处境与社会的不公给他们贴上了撕不掉的标签，所有的疯狂与斗争不过是对无情生活的反叛与抗争，奢求上帝的恩赐也是在寻找自我的答案，爱与自由才能挣脱枷锁奔向未来。禁忌的爱恋撕扯出殒命的灾难，平凡生活的奇迹照亮了黑夜却依旧迎接不了黎明，淌血的伤害只会制造仇恨，而仇恨让我们不得善终。只有放下过去才能重获新生，刹那烟火的美丽成了天人永隔的悲叹。爱是生活的全部，爱是永恒的希望，爱是苦难最后的救赎……
搞不懂斯皮尔伯格为啥要翻拍西区故事，新版比起60年前的老版，不但唱的不行，跳的不行，编剧不行，视效不行，摄剪音不行，服化道不行，而且演员还又丑又笨，据说成本超1亿美元，就为了凸现最后一刻的族裔和解？
