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.
怎么日本电影越来越让人无语 中途好几次破口大骂想要离开 不过把女的把喜欢的男的的女朋友睡了真的so Japanese😍
挺可爱温暖的一个小故事，画风配色很舒服，故事讲的一般，就还行吧
男主捧脸是要干啥啊啊啊黑屏你个鬼啊！
好！收入以后给我孩子看的片单里！很明显看出来导演有点偷懒了，ppt的放映和高潮部分拉低了整体效果，故事设定还是很不错的，至少治愈了躲在被子里偷偷看电影的我。一开始是因为芦田爱菜去看的！声音很有辨识度，还有配乐超级好听，喜欢！
再说故事内容，前面情绪铺垫太多了，看着很累，后面对抗情绪怪兽又太快，转瞬即逝，即便想说悲伤是可以很快化解的，但着实也没让人get到。而且，如果是想让大家不要沉浸于悲伤情绪中，为什么需要一个奶奶和两个小朋友去对抗？以及，把怪兽干掉之后，大家就不会悲伤了吗？反正就是觉得有些强行刻意，但其中并没有什么逻辑。
原先以为会像是《情书》那样的纯爱电影，没想到讲的是青春的苦痛，山田杏奈将青春期不懂爱极度自私的女孩子塑造的很好，而这个年纪不止女孩子也有很多这样的男孩子，但结尾收的不是太好，转折太快，和解太快，或者这也是青春期特有的吧
虽然是我不太受得了的日式节奏，以及白白的、雾蒙蒙光色，但还是很卡哇伊啦。美雪好美好美呀！《情书💌》+《盛夏光年》。
山田mm很可爱，感觉像是为她量身打造的片子。男主一家完全是为了忖托啦啦主题搞来的配件吧～
女主的画风跟其他人也差太多了，长得好像之前北芭的麻球。阴沉的样子好可爱！

是昨晚emo时当机立断选看的，主角们温柔又善良，小姑娘蕴含着大大的力量，河童们活泼又可爱。
＂明明已经这个季节了，早上起来却发现墙上有只蚊子，蚊子没有吸我一滴血，我却一巴掌把它拍死了。＂
虽然我很期待疯批女主，但看完之后似乎没有想象中的精彩，感觉好像讲了点什么，又感觉好像什么都没讲。
竟然最喜欢的是男主，男生冷静自持，好好学习，缺点最少，讲女主“不择手段任性妄为，为满足自己的私欲。不顾他人的感受”，聪明又清醒。
平平淡淡相互守护的没有血缘的家人，还有一只猫咪，什么都能满足的万事屋，很好很好的妖怪邻居朋友，愿经历苦难的人们都能带着希望重新出发。
日式寡淡日常的那个味，本来挺好的，但生生转为妖魔战斗的情节就挺掉价的，也不是不行，只是处理的不好，让前期铺下的对原生家庭对灾后重生的刻画变得儿戏起来，动画么可以理解
有些粗糙却很温暖的动画，乡村真好啊简简单单晒太阳。
画面美到不行是真的，回忆片段的动画风格也好特别，很棒，这是绝对的。
里面的河童真滴好丑，妹妹很可爱。收留结和日和的奶奶很温暖
哈哈哈虽然玄幻元素加得有点违和，大boss打得也有点草率，但整体确实蛮治愈。景色画得真不错！
