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.
全程比较尬，影院里没几个人笑得出来，作为一部喜剧挺失败的。
迷影情意结应该是核心了，雨中曲、教父等等。但处理得非常生硬，就生搬硬套，缺乏韵味。喜剧的部分有少许可乐的地方，但大部分时候即使笑了也是硬咯吱人。黑帮的部分悬浮。有关人物和感情的部分和迷影情结的问题类似，生硬，好像直白的分段小学生作文。
没抱多大期望，没想到笑点密集，翻拍本土化处理挺好，某些影迷梗也还算有趣，中间一首穿插的《天才白痴梦》真的是神来之笔！魏翔演技很不错，最后的花絮确实挺令人动容，魏翔其实更多是在演自己，戏里戏外都是第一次演主角
前半部是真的很好笑，男主对笑点的释放演的很好，值得一看，后半部没劲，玩着手机边听边看就行了。整体完成度算是可以。
我真的太喜欢在电影院看喜剧了 自己看或者在家看可能笑不出来可是在电影院就很有氛围笑得很开心 本来不太喜欢魏翔觉得他有点油腻 可是这个角色很合适 （srds迟到了半小时 看看要不要再看一遍…
看完谁不说一句魏翔值得！
笑点比较低级，前面还好，后面太烂了，既然我笑出来了还是给个3星吧。 5.5/10
这里有个问题，就是原版里的杀手演员，可从来没拿自己当小丑。所以，喜剧的底色就更加悲凉了。
【5.5+1】
反正我是笑了 无知者无畏啊真正的 可以博观众一笑的电影就是值得五星了吧 魏翔 我记住这个演员了 演技不错 据说这真的是他第一部男主角的电影
以及魏翔（卡尔）很像我的班主任
魏翔终于做男主，演的很棒，马丽也是一贯的稳定，剧情很好笑，春节档唯一的喜剧，麻花团队值得信赖
魏翔终于要演男一号了，喜闻乐见！电影比不上原版，但魏翔表现不错。
魏翔终于做男主，演的很棒，马丽也是一贯的稳定，剧情很好笑，春节档唯一的喜剧，麻花团队值得信赖
原版《魔幻时刻》没有多惊艳但有情怀，是一封给老电影、电影人的情书，像一碗白米饭，没有多好但细细咀嚼会有甘甜。翻拍的《这个杀手不太冷静》只有无聊和尴尬，往本来的白米饭里参屎。
每个大哥身边都有一个想当大哥的手下，哈哈哈，感谢吉米献身做了全片唯一的反派
5.三谷幸喜、星護的喜剧得去补一波
难称之为一部电影，很多技巧用在零碎处，人物动机和情绪莫名其妙，很多桥段依然类似小品，你就放松来看可以，稍微认真就不经推敲。看完觉得就是一个展开但是失败版本的《喜剧之王》
开心麻花/万万没想到喜剧中的插科打诨抖包袱抛网络梗，既利又弊，就像闹剧，大闹了大笑了，回味中却少了一些深度。
戏中戏，各种借桥、致敬，都让我起鸡皮疙瘩，low遍全身。笑点设计，也大多让人呵呵。开心麻花的喜剧，大多是没品的闹剧而已，扛不起当代喜剧电影的大旗。看来得去看一下三谷幸喜的原作压压惊才行。
