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.
还可以吧，有泪点爆发的地方，不过总体还是有点俗套，emm五星给kenty
三星给老师。就是说总体逻辑有点奇怪（不太理解两个人为什么爱的如此撕心裂肺）同时，能不能说清楚？（就是说，得病了咱们一起想办法治行不行？动不动就伤痛文学我真的谢）然后就是讲讲演技，我个人觉得老师比以前进步了挺多（至少我看了不尬）女主演技也就还好（立本少拍一点漫改啊！！二次元的世界在三次元是行不通的啊！！！）此处为心声！！！总体来说是一部及格线的作品。一些画面还是比较日系（可做无聊的时候观看）
果然看预告片就足够了。看中岛老师演戏真的是我快乐源泉。哥哥嫂子部分还行。不止男主拍的是废纸，这整个电影都是废片啊！怎么能拍出这么长…
我本来不想那么难过的，可那是中岛老师耶！一想到本有机会能够跟中岛老师共度余生却眼睁睁看机会溜走我就好他妈能共情女主。中岛老师我命定的墙头呜呜呜呜呜呜
观察一部作品给自己带来的感受，总觉得价值观输出有问题。是要让观众对衰老感到恐惧吗，只有年轻时充满活力的爱情才是让人热情澎湃，心驰神往的吗？这种纯爱电影到底想要讲什么……我看只有女主让男主好好努力，追求梦想，这个“燃”点让我比较好接受吧……
一是，戏没到一半就让女主不能见人了，编剧和导演还真是胆大，我想看看到底要怎样？一是，松本穗香的美我能get到，索性关注到底吧。
最后晴人没有认出变老的她那段。。唉
二倍速看完了…有点老套的剧情…突然想起高二第一次看《一公升的眼泪》，哭得稀里哗啦的，第二天跟同桌分享剧情，互相嘲笑对方的肿眼泡皮。有些感动只能留在青春里，有些浪漫也只会在影视剧里有。爱情，终究还是一场势均力敌的游戏。
怎么说呢 我以为我会爆哭 但真的还好 可能是看过原著的关系 第二次看就没有第一次那么难受了 但是kenty演技真的进步太大了 最后这段哭戏真的有让我感受到细细密密的痛苦 绝对是及格线以上的作品
没怎么看过纯爱电影，所以也不会觉得老套，以至于哭成泪人，剧情四星，一星给中岛老师

还是很动人，虽然出彩的两段感情是高光，免不了难以拯救一些状态不佳。
后半段哭死了！不停得哭一直哭！樱花散尽，世界再无你，可春天是，想你的季节啊
过于冥长，情节老套无新意，导演想拍出对仗的感情，但爱情并不是公式，变化才有意义。
空镜和配乐还算唯美吧，高于预期的伤感纯爱片，总得来说是能带来些许情绪波动的水平。
让我想起了以前我也总是躲在某个角落默默的看着那个男孩子 明明有很多想和他说 可是又不敢上前 以及中岛老师那段自白 是我自认为全片最出众的地方 真情实感哭泣了
黄叔：我救我自己！时长感人…下次想看绑架马东锡…演男反一的演员很不错哎，但豆瓣木有介绍……

又是一部本子特产死人爱情，这种片子难看也难看不到哪里去 看到中岛老师发疯的样子忍不住代一代（嘿嘿
中岛老师演技变好了！！剧情看设定就能猜到发展，但还是被伤到了(╥﹏╥)
