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.
爱情歌舞剧，还不错，套路就是那些，歌挺好听的
确实俗套，确实跟不上时代，像在看02年的东西，而不是22年。胜在Jen Lo绝美，啊，绝美。
《我与巨星妻子的二三事》
老实说，并不是很想看这两人谈恋爱，剧本俗得很无聊
为啥国内的很多烂片都评分比这个高多了？难道国人只喜欢忽悠人的国产片吗，国产片多数是烂片，如开心麻花那些骗钱的片子（夏洛特除外）。所以啊，国人的观影水平要提高啊！ 有时看到国人的评分和国产电影的票房，感觉中国像个农村电影大市场一样，low！
《诺丁山》之看演唱会撞大运，为了J.Lo勉强加一星
电影院看加一⭐。烂番茄🍿指数92，剧情俗气但也轻松，冲突化解得太容易了。买电影票送演唱会，歌真的好听，西语歌让人想跳舞。女同部分的台词没删，估计是觉得这片没什么水花。演员还不错，maluma挺壮，jlo状态真好，手臂上的肌肉，演30多岁还是让人信服的。有一句台词I don't even know her.逗~
看完以后回想起来剧情有些cheesy，但是看的过程中很能沉浸共情。
再美的爱情，也会因琐事而争吵。
J.Lo个人魅力秀，各种装备花式眯眼，大家围绕在她身边当好工具人就行了……只看她一个人美美哒开心唱歌
放着Luke Macfarlane不要，那还是人嘛。
难以下咽 女主真的…还以为在看亲吻亭…感觉下一秒noah都要出场…剩一小时没看救赎自己
能不能不要拍的一惊一乍的，到底是要表现什么。提了很多电影，却觉得像是在蹭。虽然男主很帅
欧文的假脸让我看不下去了…剧情还停留在十年前
女主角非常美，艳光四射的大明星，电影配乐也好听。男主角口头很会撩，会到根本不像一个数学老师，年纪看上去也偏大，令故事的合理性打了折扣。老又矫情，他何德何能？如果能花些篇幅烘托男主的魅力会更好。
健身教练一出场我感觉怎么老了好多 原来我把他和《我们这一天》里的Kevin弄混了
呃，本小妞电影十级学者都有点看不下去了。小妞电影的第一准则不是男帅女美么？男主角你有事么？ 歌不难听，充分get到天后diva的魅力。穿插着的tiktok片段让我感觉，时代真的变了，爱情电影也变了，但内核还是没咋变
非常无聊拖沓，像是没过深入思考写出来的剧本，为结婚而结婚，为发糖而发糖，为分手而分手。试问我看这个片图什么？就算没有diva倒霉旧爱互撕跨服聊天和狗血drama，我图的也不是一般男性大胜利啊！这什么都市性转灰姑娘啊？！对标诺丁山更是不必，且不说人家剧本扎实，人家的珠玉爱情里金钱和流量就没起过什么正向作用。
风味纯正的小鸡电影好久没看了，竟然觉得还可以。
圣诞电影Day15：今年的最后一部圣诞电影啦，剧情其实还是差不多的，依然俗套极了，不过主角换成了LGBTQ，又多了一点小心翼翼的彼此试探，还挺甜的
