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.
雖然一開始就猜到故事情節，但後面劇情還是滿不錯~
演技在线，又是精分又是精分，这要是大陆片，得被骂死
在我心中评分比豆瓣高，可能是因为对这种原生家庭的伤害深有体会。 母亲以为已被忘记的6岁那年扼着她脖子的双手，其实扼杀着她的一生。 自己活成了最不想成为的人，竭尽全力希望摆脱的母亲，便是她自己。
被主演们的精湛演技折服，电影也没那么无聊了
尽管有不少人指出它的瑕疵。
惊悚，比起悬疑更像社会。从「韩公主」到「坚持住」再到此作，千在聚焦女性困境的作品中点亮了越来越多的光芒。
“妈妈 你恨我 不是吗”
基本上看到开头就能感受到案件里的母女关系和主播本身受到控制的母女关系之间的互文，再加上《黑天鹅》式的职场内卷心魔，类似的电影已经有很多，连悬念的制造都显得模板化。虽然为千禹熙和李慧英都提供了大展类型片演技的机会，但类型片终究是类型片，机能上要求再高，精神分裂写得天花乱坠，也不是真正在写精神世界上富足的人。
作为一个没玩过游戏的观众，电影还算不错！！！
快乐结尾的青春片让人心情愉悦～最难的是它始终有种现实、接地气的感觉，没有过分的滤镜美化，让人客观地感受到“噢，这就是青春时期啊”！
台湾已经没有小清新女主了，校园剧不肯避免的走向末路。九把刀再好的编剧已经找不到00后女演员来演。
本来冲着申河均去看的，主题和呈现方式的新颖与敏感算是意外的惊喜，某种程度上来说还是需要相信申河均对电影作品选择的能力，他应该是在自己所能选择范围内选了最好的东西去演绎了。
月厨表示这是做了个几把？玛修的升华，所罗门的故事补全呢？人都是残缺的，故事都说不明白，打也是，能再敷衍一点吗？都是三星四星在放光炮，这是overlord制作组来了吧？这是一个半小时能说的完的体量吗？我玩了游戏的表示还原太差了，没玩游戏的朋友跟我说完全看不明白说什么
前面太闷了，后面又震惊又难过。女性自身成长与养育子女的矛盾，没想到能以这样的形式诉说。千禹熙的表演再次震憾了我，不愧是青龙影后啊！
武戏比较搞笑，台词超多，唠了一个半小时，连放光炮的时候都有人解说。作为游戏CG来说属于令人想要跳过的水平，作为电影来说令人不由得想要安慰导演“不要气馁，人不是一定要拍电影才能活下去，把才华发挥在适合的领域吧。”
台式青春。周兴哲不帅，李沐不美，这样才比较真实。明明是双向奔赴却差点错过，幸好都勇敢了一步。配乐有点差，竟然还强塞了一点BL……
最恐怖的点在于里面每一位无助绝望的母亲都如此的真实，真实的存在于现实生活中。不是母亲们病了，是社会。
以为是主播和心理医生斗志斗勇的悬疑剧，最后反转，结果是人性救赎的故事？画风从破案变成伦理，高开低走。
我十五年前没有面对自己，十五年后只能期待下一次同学会了～
