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.
唯一遗憾的就是真的感觉不够看，这个故事很完整，完全可以以网剧形式出的更长一些。
什么锤子烂电影，漏洞百出，还玩个人英雄主义这一套，现在已经不时兴了，只有莽夫导演才会认为那样很酷吧
最后来一段宣誓仪式，再来一段字幕形式的判刑和普法，是不是都成惯例了？...
剧情简单明了很是单薄。但剧中的打斗绝对是近几年国产巅峰，拳拳到肉，看的人热血澎湃，武术指导牛逼！
谢苗演的精彩，有正义感，也很能打，还比较机智
出人意料的好看，三个短视频名场面原来出自一部电影，谢苗真的是一名好演员啊。
看着还不错啊，虽然制作有点粗糙，但是打斗还是挺精彩的，多拍几部能形成系列就好了。
打的确实过瘾，剧情简单明了，就是打就完了，有些地方为了爽而爽，逻辑差了点，尤其闹酒局和杀媳妇那里，太能编了，整体很不错，最后打斗是亮点，很有新意。
有点扯，做犯法的事还敢众人面前这么嚣张，背后又抓人家把柄，那不如直接抓把柄非要搞前面那一出还让当jc的姑爷和他爹知道这么个事。一帮人有枪还整不了一个jc.纯属扯淡。故事人物演的还行，就是不切实际。
三星支持一下网大的电影，整个剧情还是比较紧凑的，个人英雄主义表现的也不错，但是不符合我国的大环境，而且虽说主题是以扫黑除恶为目的，但是里面的黑社会组织只是存在了几天的几个小混混而已，而且也没有保护伞。算不上很大的恶势力。
也不知道为什么这么低的分子，明明算是很不错的网大了
感觉还不错啊，打斗特别过瘾，谢苗还是缺资源啊，希望以后会火
这剧情美式犯罪，中式侦查。
能看出来，谢苗很努力的想演好，事实证明，演的也确实不错，除了有点耍帅，其他方面都合格。
剧情简单了一点，但拳脚功夫实打实确实看的挺爽的。
巩固长成了巩伟的样子。肖老三全剧演技担当。打戏流畅。
看的很过瘾，有套路，但是不过时，谢苗的圆脸变成瓜子脸了？要是把释小龙、谢苗、嘎子哥都放一块，有个好剧本肯定没问题的
挺好看的，很有东北特色，未来的国产动作片就看谢苗了
名义上是找的武打明星谢苗，想拍个警匪功夫片。可是你们拍出来是个啥啊，看的眼睛都要晃瞎了。
整体来说真的挺不错的，很精彩。但是我感觉有点个人英雄主义了，没有团队配合。其它警察都是打扫战场的吗？
