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.
心理障碍拍的很潦草 最后一顿反杀来的莫名其妙
短评区内有一位朋友总结的极其到位：男人为了拯救生意和女人，他成功了；女人为了拯救内容和婚姻，她失败了。当Lucy拿出两张手帕时，生活和喜剧的联接被彻底打破，无法再认真对待感情，此后只剩表演。整体制作精良，但在妮可的表演下显得不那么重要了~
很难进入，开始真的非常凌乱，枝枝节节的东西太多了，看得好累人。不过索金在后面慢慢找到了一个情感支点，可惜已经快结尾了，整体下来依然是无趣的
開了一個「當代凶線」的頭，最後高開低走，後段「驚慄片」重頭段落拍得很洩氣。新貓女演技不錯，期待她在大作的表現。
几个主演的演技很棒。其实可以拍的更好的，节奏太乱了。
今年的最后一部电影，庆幸看到了今年最佳的一个结尾——妮可愣神的那20秒，可以说是剧本创作中最美妙的一刻了。
Everything can be easily anticipated. 这部电影也许想应和科技公司流氓虚伪不在乎个人隐私的通俗论调，但我学到的是关键时刻气钉枪可以用来反杀，强劲穿透，高效连发。
疫情+网络时代的心理困境。心病需要心药医，但也需要外部刺激带来行为的改变。本片中，窥探和共情成了一把简洁有效的钥匙。

6分，其实完全可以用同样的班底搭配瑞恩墨菲做一部8集的剧，每一集一定非常精彩，但是放现在这个130分钟左右的电影，哪怕台词量再多还是免不了拖沓，且没有迷影向的点子，妮可最后一场戏演的很好。
【3星半】她想用那部付出了一生的电视剧来挽救她的婚姻，终以破碎失败落幕，观看体验和《塔米•菲的眼睛》如出一辙，建议艾伦•索金还是老老实实做黄金编剧吧，想表达很多但没表达好。
社恐患者如我应该会喜欢这部，掏出包包里东西发现大家都差不多的装备
也不能说不打动人，但真的就是一个全体主创都没有突破的产品。
尽管针妮脸已经僵硬成这样了，还是很让人共情啊，求求艾伦·索金别再导演了，专心写剧本就可以了！
入室打架再杀死几个人即可治愈人群心理障碍。
索金一贯的风格，台词密集的吓人，很容易在开头就被劈头盖脸的信息量砸晕，但是逐渐进去后就好了。
一般般，比较少见的反映智能电子产品正面的设定。虽然只有不到90分钟，主线简单支线却很散，部分运镜还可以。床戏裸露真的可有可无，只当福利。互相偷窥神TM换来个莫名其妙的见义勇为。还以为结局要和肥宅在一起呢，结果就是一个挡刀的路人甲。记住两个知识点：钉枪绷住当枪使，杀人能治社恐症。

戏中戏做的不错，戏里戏外挽救婚姻挺伤感的，能减点台词就好了，腹泻式台词看着有点累，表演值得提名，更喜欢巴登的表演，《塔米菲》的加菲来看看。
美国早期情景喜剧实录，当下真人戏外采访和戏内叙事线相互穿插，戏里戏外关键元素互文携手向前。这是一部行业外的观众叫苦，有写作经验观众拍案叫好的非常规传记片，有些片段能顺便把我拉入写作状态，讨论研读剧本中加入具体画面真是神来之笔。全片的叙事线是由一次意外引发的一系列连锁反应，在故事的边边角角之处又顺带讲了女主一路从演艺最底层走到万众瞩目的经历。
