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.
非常套路，但完成度还不错。另外，为什么怪兽摔跤场要以教练名义命名，而不是怪兽摔跤手，还不是把怪兽当畜牲看待呗。
太平庸了就是烂，孩子都会看睡着的动画电影，看了前5分钟随后的情节全能猜出来，人物设计也很差，没有想象力的丑。
半梦半醒看的 摔跤格斗 逆袭的故事 平平无奇
剧本老套单一了~没啥悬念伏笔~纯粹是挑战自我的鸡汤了~感觉就是把人类摔跤换成了怪兽~
儿子自己找到动画，和儿子一起看完的爆米花电影！
电视电影感觉，很老套的小甜水，偶尔喝喝也挺好的看得挺开心。
5.7分。比《汪汪队》稍微能看一点，但是……依旧是不能看。天哪，明明有那么多励志体育电影做打底，这部即使是照着其中一部抄都不会像现在这么荒唐。不过我觉得那个触须王，一些Furry控或许会喜欢？
一个犹太拳击手的传记电影，在集中营他揍死了七十多个同胞只为自己能苟活下来，这种野蛮的求生欲却是来自于对初恋情人的执念。过程很残忍，结局很无语。
挺不错的，一直很惊奇老外的脑洞总是好有心意。
各种点都设置在观众的爽点上，自古套路得人心。
合格分，有两只怪兽的设定参考了中国龙和日本相扑手，挺有意思的
全片拍出了一个美国人意淫自己是犹太幸存泽的氛围
还是老一套的剧本，只是把摔角人物怪兽化，毫无新意。只适合在周末凑合看看。
活下来的理由或许是美丽的，但能活下来的方法难以启齿！
典型的套路片，开头就能知道结尾和要讲的道理，不过开心就好嘛！打打闹闹美好结局，比生活强
剧情简单且单薄，对怪兽无感就一点意思都没有了
my daughter is dating a doctor 然后那个smirk我笑死了
很正的体育文化，同时告诉我们，体育俱乐部的社区建设，不能压住在明星球员上。
很轻松的电影，姬恋直倒不是主线。主角一家，我竟然觉得太白了
老套的好处就在于，只要不整幺蛾子，就不会难看
