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.
很普通，不太好看。抖音剪辑实在是大加分。。。
有致命逻辑漏洞，每天一起生活，还做了身体检查，怎么可能完全没认出对方。
最像反派的黑哥居然是唯一的好人 可惜挂得早
3.8/5整体蛮不错的，剧作，摄影，调度，剪辑，视听语言都用了心思，值得推荐。反派死于话多这个部分略老套了，有点可惜。
小成本逃脱片，BUG不少，暴力血腥还好，大段乌漆嘛黑的画面，看不清个啥，最大看点是亚裔女主刘的斗智斗勇，结尾翻盘完胜。5.6
亚裔女主演技不错。把钉子从手心拔出那段吓得我抱猫捂眼
0227:难得看到亚裔女主的欧美恐怖片，演技还不错，但是既不悬疑也不惊悚，全称没有刺激的感觉，最后把黑人老婆划到绑匪那边简直无语，黑人还专门点明了退伍军人，结果毫无作用就挂了
打发时间可以一看，女主演技还真可以，看好未来的发展
三星半 好惊喜的一部密室片子 节奏 悬念什么做的都不错 临近结尾那个狡猾的地狱级别的sick humor太猛太有趣了
在此类低成本反杀悬疑故事里虽不算新鲜，但该有的都有了还不忘加些小创意来提味，诚意满满，看得爽。哈瓦娜·罗丝·刘是位好演员。
3.5🌟有反转有惊喜，虽然套路有点老，一下就猜出来了，好在这是为数不多惊悚恐怖片的女主不蠢的，结局有些草率了
中规中矩小成本电影，无脑，略有小趣味。华裔女主演不错。
知识学杂一例。
惊悚在哪里……挺精彩的 追逐战和打戏都不错 但是这杀手一会不杀人一会又点燃飞机 很难理解动力 最后那个车好气啊男主真是大傻子
没想到还挺精彩！虽然剧情有点Bug，但节奏很好，剧情经得起推敲，不俗！

绑了富豪的女儿不打算要赎金打算弄去卖了了？这是什么绑匪思维？典型穷又怂绑匪。一个简单的小成本电影，简单的人物简单的环境，还行，女主还可以。就是有点像嗑药宣传片。
合格的爆米花电影，剧情不复杂，打打杀杀，相互欺骗和斡旋，但足够刺激
反派不补刀与主角同罪，期待了半天的逆转期待了个寂寞
中规中矩小成本电影，无脑，略有小趣味。华裔女主演不错。
