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.
8分，不尴尬的喜剧值得鼓励，全程没快进，二手玫瑰加0.5
首先想法值得肯定，在国内战争片里这种形式确实是别具一格，但其展现出来的效果并不理想，对我而言，低饱和的色调并没有达到真正的统一，使得更像是一场水平不高的模仿秀。剧情感觉也没啥好说的，就是那种随处可见的
良心网大，故事能看，崔志佳出息了，剧本再打磨打磨就更好了
还不错，有的地方挺逗的，笑点也没那么俗，像是个大小品
刀爷演技很好👍🏻怎么说呢 预告片就是全部搞笑的地方
这片要是美国人拍的，估计能得8分。
题材挺有意思的，有点《大碗》的影子，不过故事差太多了
巩俐在台北可以选出《大象席地而坐》，在北京就只能选出《云霄之上》了。2021上影+北影的首奖全是中国片，又有几分是实力？
很典型的东北幽默，确实也好笑，也添加了许多温情的内容，还行，可以看
爹还没那啥就定好了日子？直接呼应了那个去饭店订桌，服务员问红事白事。
2星半-3星，包袱不恶俗，前半段笑点很多，后面煽情讲道理有点儿无聊，结尾还整个call back，随张彩票笑死，值得一看，但没什么反复回味的必要，属于一辈子看一遍就够了的电影。
比开心麻花翻拍个日本片儿还无聊至极简直好了一百倍。凭啥才给那么低分呀，得强推。有人情味，行为端正忠厚老实，台词幽默，节奏爽快，导演不仅导的好，演的还好。摄像镜头也都很有水准了。
演小品短视频的好好演小品短视频不好吗，非整跨界
二手玫瑰这五万块钱可比孙胖子那五万赚的费劲多了啊。
能感觉想学肯洛奇《风吹麦浪》 也能感觉没学好
无论如何，至少整体很完整，也没有所谓的虎头蛇尾，看完非常的轻松，甚至于观看的过程中也会和主角深深地共情，在疫情期间，希望愉快的电影可以多一点，也希望被绑架的电影市场能少一点强行正能量多一点轻松和欢愉。
前半段挺好笑的，后面为了拔高而拔高反而没意思了…题材挺好，东北的葬礼风俗和人情世故，只是剧本太弱了（但演员还是挺好笑的
——哥，你当男主太胖了。
喜剧 虽然大部分是肢体笑果 但我笑了 我觉得就及格了 至于故事逻辑的小问题我觉得可以接受 还有点小思考什么的 还不错
电影中的黑白处理会觉得恰到好处，战争时期哪有什么色彩，人人都生活在黑暗中，最后的红色也是在展现人们心存的信念，是心的颜色。
