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.
在这黑暗与孤独的世界，相信一定会有人与自己互为光亮。
没看过原作，有点一头雾水，不是很能理解。但是画风，描绘，很棒，很舒服，很有特色
最后还挺感人，温情结局，请照顾好迪亚哥和小鼠鼠。
观感有些割裂，不过有一处我非常喜欢的表达：先生以爪剖开自己的躯体，希瓦伸入双手，一捧盈蓝的液体在她手心闪烁。
对法国喜剧情有独钟，不骂人的诙谐幽默，大大方方的开玩笑，不像好莱坞喜剧遮遮掩掩的想歧视又不说
画面制作风格剧情包括结局的片尾曲都还可以耶，有点治愈，想接下往下看的冲动，这个故事的结尾到最后会是怎样呢？
很好很山姆雷米，把我吓跳好几次。本尼颜值巅峰
小男孩和小女孩的那条线不错，结尾对待死亡的那段很触动。但，给的太硬了，三星不能再多了，我相信这个题材以后会出现更多更好的片。
很喜欢这种小人物群像，疫情之下的各种焦虑、慌张、神经质、以及一点点温馨和很多的幽默都很有趣。虽然结尾还是被灌足了鸡汤，但对我这种永远喜欢HE的人来说，还是很吃这套。
隔离时期的生活，非常紧跟时事的电影了。
原本决定打三星，那个结尾生生把我感动了，于是又加一星。这部法国版《北街南院》，让我见识到瘟疫蔓延初期法国平民的应对状态，面对灾难，大家都一样一样儿的。另：做喵真幸福，能逃过许多劫难。
好久没看过让人笑出眼泪的喜剧了。丹尼伯恩yyds😄
不错，比以往见过的插科打诨式的法国喜剧要有意思
2021年10月31日观看。法国人还是挺幽默。
剧本很薄弱 分镜并不是一直保持在最好的状态 但是我对福山润演这种角色真的无法拒绝……在这黑暗与孤独的世界，相信一定会有人与自己互为光亮
就这？真是有点莫名其妙啊。合着跟先前的多元宇宙并没有什么关系啊。phase 4真的是一代不如一代。
陈旧的滑稽戏用在今天确实有点不合时宜的尴尬感，不过还是蛮好笑。
终于有法国人拍的疫情片了。夸张里有真实，笑里还有感动，可爱！
法国喜剧还挺好笑的，但演员太素人了吧，法国人发福严重啊
疫情期间法国大杂院的故事与我们很像但又不类似。
