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.
如腹泻一样酣畅淋漓，哦不对，应该是自恋自己的臭屁臭屎~~~~
就上半部还在究着心弦想着两个人什么时候撕的，下半场就一起抗敌了，当然啊，没有一起怎么能取得胜利，印度悬浮high片的典型之作，狗血至极，但就还行吧。
张伯伦为欧战赢得了时间？难道德国不也多准备了一年？要这么说，如果战争再迟一些爆发，是不是德国就先拥有核武？洗地不是这样洗的~
以纳粹德国侵占捷克苏台德地区这个历史真实事件为背景，虚构了两名英德牛津同窗好友斡旋其中，试图警告英国并揭发希特勒野心…英法对纳粹德国的绥靖政策一直被后世诟病，被认为是鼓励希特勒进行更危险的尝试，本片试图从另一个角度为时任英国首相张伯伦辩护---希特勒的野心早被看破，绥靖是为了换取准备时间，而有随后的胜利---实难苟同。熟知一战的残酷历史不难理解彼时英国国内对再次欧战的恐惧和抗拒，但绝不能说张伯伦的绥靖是为了换去时间，就算希特勒当时也不知道底线到底在哪而步步为营。抛去这个“平反”的论调，这部电影可谓几无瑕疵。从节奏到结构，从服饰到道具，从音乐到摄影都极具水准，近年少见的高水平作品。只是希特勒的选型有失水准，扣半星。
张伯伦太渴望和平，义无反顾的去阻止战争
神技能。
印度电影几十年如一日，在观赏性和娱乐性上面下足了功夫，这部超高投资的大片更是做到了极致！它根本不管违反了多少物理学定律，违背了多少生物学常理，忽略了多少逻辑学要理，唯一就是要爽到底，爆米花就要爆到喷泉般狂涌！肾上腺素就是要爆表！管人家文艺闷骚骚出金熊金狮金棕榈，咱就是只想引燃全场，燃燃燃---RRR！
“我完全有机会杀了希特勒……我已经近到可以闻到他身上的气息，但我就是动不了。”
真是离谱他妈给离谱开门，离谱到家啦，但是看得我确实是爆笑，装逼装得这么认真，还装了3个小时，我都不觉得累，也只有三哥电影有这样的魔力。

20220526 阿三神片，反英复印，绝世武功两兄弟，大战沙雕英国人，确定开场万人丛中取上将首级不是抄袭乔峰？！
看完印度抗战神片，突然感觉中国的合情合理。
首相张伯伦的扮演，非常成功，而希特勒的人物性格塑造，显得稳健和缜密，总感觉与历史不符。全片较好的还原了二战前夕政治斡旋，留给后人诸多的想象空间。
历史题材可能限制不小，故事来说就显得很平，影片好像过了1/3才交代去德国的任务，这样就进入得太慢了啊，但是还算拍得工整，一众卡司不错。
“我们不能选择自己生活的时代”
“我们唯一的选择就是如何回应”
- 2022/07/11，看完。“We don’t choose the times we live in. The only choice we have is how we respond.”本片中最喜欢的几幕：夏夜，校园，派对，枕着胳膊一齐躺在草地上；看望了如今不得不只能卧病的Lenya后，Hugh和Paul分享了一支烟，面对面呵出的烟雾和对视在黑沉沉的夜里交织成雾；清晨他们争吵，告别，各自走向未知又既定的前路；意外再会一回，没有交谈的空余，只能交付字条与简短的眼神。最后，感谢角色设定和讲的语言终于对上了【。】-
历史功过自用时间来评价，历史细节都有后人来勾勒
1930，夏天，牛津，同窗，分道扬镳，重逢，分享一根烟。就这你问我有没有看出queer subtext？嗯？22年2月底，历史照进现实了。
战争的本质是为了持久和平
