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.
谢苗演技很不错很代入，剧情很弱，打戏网大里算top级别了。
好久没看这种动作有力的动作片了，有种看老港片的感觉，有点像李连杰和谢苗主演的《给爸爸的信》的延续。可惜的是故事有点太简单了，动作上没有给人印象深刻的经典场面
网大版导火线，现在年轻一代打戏能看的也只有谢苗了。他需要一个大制作。
有一说一，东北味儿挺足的。
网大里面算是可以的了，谢苗的打戏还是有看头的，但就是故事漏洞有点大，硬伤。
谢苗在我这就是优质功夫片的保障，一连看几部片看下来，还真就没失望过。本片剧情简单，节奏紧张，时长还特别ok。虽然打戏相较他的古装片要逊色些，却也做到了拳拳到肉，打击感十足，整体三星绰绰有余。
粗糙，俗套，但是毕竟是一群操着东北话的中国人的故事，最喜欢老陶这个人物，最后的入警誓词也很有感觉。
细想了一下，国产的警匪电影中有这般动作质量和硬度的作品其实并不多，这得益于谢苗本身的底子，当然和他一起配戏的演员表现都不错，那个老三的斯文败类以及到最后强调自己自己特别能打的人物塑造也是可圈可点。近期看了两部谢苗的电影，希望好的资源再去找找他，还是很让人有期待的。
也就打戏能撑得起场面。反派剧情没有智商，看着是个狠人 ，实际慌得一批啊。俗套的东西也多。
总感觉苗在这部戏里的行为演技更适合演反派😅😅
片荒期间，爱奇艺首页推荐的……整体来说片子还挺完整，讲了一个简单的警察抓坏人的小故事，能消遣看一下。
剧情简单了一点，但拳脚功夫实打实确实看的挺爽的。
2.5；医院和公交车两场打戏拍的还是很棒的，不过剧情和人设还是假了点儿。
虽然故事简单，bug也不少，但还是正经意义上的打片，难为谢苗这么多年还在坚持，童星里打星出身的只看到谢苗还在坚持出打片了。成龙这么多年说着找接班人，不知道是没看到谢苗还是因为谢苗不红
值得四星鼓励，魏君子老师辛苦能让大家看到国产动作片的新进步，医院和大巴的打斗可见预算不充裕，但是谢苗卖力演出还是值得一看，看到谢苗长大当警察也感叹我们即将步入中年，喜欢的事业就值得继续干下去，期待第二部能上大荧幕一定支持
反派太醜了 看見就想打那種 那個拍便衣的死胖子應該狗帶
希望谢苗能把这个做个东北警察故事系列。
如果谢苗当年演完李连杰2次儿子后选择继续拍戏，不至于沦落到现在只能拍网大。
粗糙，俗套，但是毕竟是一群操着东北话的中国人的故事，最喜欢老陶这个人物，最后的入警誓词也很有感觉。
感觉这三个星都是给谢苗的，再有剧本里面没有好人牺牲什么的，也不狗血。男主的动作戏真的很漂亮，只是镜头没办法抓的那么好，不过也能感觉很用心了。主要片尾的彩蛋真的是太逗了。配角有待提高啊。尤其衣云鹤，感觉就是在演喜剧，一点都不坏，每次要做坏事的时候都感觉在看那啥来着，贼搞笑的那个网剧，我给忘了。
