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.
曾药师应该是想牺牲亲儿子保集团利益吧，结果被廖叔玉石俱焚拉下水打了个全盘皆输。剧情和几位大叔大爷演技都还可以吧，打两星那些人太苛刻了。
智叔遗作。想起律政强人…说实话，电影相比内容很单薄呀。但是演员个个演技在线，这个很棒了。
前戏（包括前情提要）太长，而主线核心重点也在整部电影中飘忽不定，反而最后的游轮大决战羸弱且无聊。
还行吧，比南巫稍微吓人点，依然给我看睡着了。剧情弄个多时间线叙事，导演水平有限讲不利落，干脆就不解释了。惊吓点基本都在预料之中，单纯的黑暗+jumpscare，而且jumpscare的点也太老套了，结局也是整的莫名其妙。整体还不如南巫呢。
鬼怪，穿越，循环，恐怖氛围感倒是烘托得不错，剧情就渣一样
4.5/10
三部曲完结撒花！后面游轮部分嗨得不行，不过菜菜绪的酱油戏份过于酱油了...
如果导演能力有限的话，大可不必把时间线拍的这么复杂
钢牙雨，“脱水完了”和“海中蝴蝶”笑了三下，然后就不知道其他演了个啥了。居然延续了一下这几年的极道边缘人关怀。三池老怪最近几部片子还能再应付点吗？
这种全部都是黑的电影，眼瞅邪魔丧尸发飙了，凤凰天使水印正好打在屏幕右边，真的很碍眼啊家人们
差了那么点意思，感觉像大案，又感觉故事弱了点
漆黑的走廊，趴在门上听着门后的声音，气氛感做的还不错
明知这是一场意外，明知咫尺远近也无法靠近，依然愿意为你而来。
三部里面最差的一步，啧啧 还是第一部最搞笑～
2星半的电影，勉勉强强给到3，主要还是方中信有这个能力撑起来。
男主劣版康斯坦丁，故事企圖走所謂「燒腦」路線然而簡單劇情都沒講好（。不推薦。
三部曲完结撒花！后面游轮部分嗨得不行，不过菜菜绪的酱油戏份过于酱油了...
还行 一边干别的一边看 也能看出来演的啥 反正邪不压正
不如“两个月亮”，可能和现在恐怖片也找不出新的点吓人有关系
哇我上一次看到这么离谱的电影可能还是赤道吧！鲍起静上一秒还对方中信恨得咬牙切齿下一秒就对乖孙说“你一定要听他话他能救你命”；方中信去竞选办公室找曾志威如入无人之境，健康码都没扫保安就不知道拦一下吗；陈家乐坚持了一小时的正义至上的法律信念在一小时过几分的时候突然变成要接受认罪协议；谭耀文仅凭方中信一个假设问题就能一针见血给出关键建议，这阅读理解能力不拿个高考语文状元说不过去吧；一个张松枝就能只手遮天顶得上一个三合会，曾家这么厉害为啥不直接把三叔推海里呀！讲真，真是糟蹋了演员表里的老人家们！
