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.
这大概就是10年20年 30年后我们国家养老的样子。
“所以我几时都话，破产係日本老人唯一嘅出路”
20分钟内治好了我的低血压（五郎这种队友也不知道算好还是坏 唉）
婆婆最后说:这一万是给你的，只能做为你自己的私用！！
生活就是錢錢錢啊！到了晚年還是為錢煩惱。用詼諧幽默的方式呈現這種為錢困擾的苦悶，蠻可愛的電影。...
很真实的中年家庭的生活啊，有柴米油盐，也有欢声笑语，关于如何养老，或者说度过老年生活，给出了些参考。生前葬我觉得可以。
前半截5星，中间三星，最后0星，平均下来三星很靠谱吧？
等我老了也要在死之前把好朋友们都叫过来，在我活着的时候快快乐乐的送我走，然后安安静静的死去，留给家人的是我快乐的离去。
挺神奇的，小寿寿给龙哥演爹，永远独行侠的两位演夫妻lol。看到合租房就想到《家族募集》了结果果然，虽然确实过于理想化，但估计以后这种形式的养老少不了…和好朋友一起养老的话大概会蛮开心
和尚的经文变成讨债的催命符，撒钱的葬礼却挣到了钱。侧面反应老龄社会养老难问题的家庭戏剧，看着还挺开心的。
婆婆给10w那里好感动，但是前面铺垫那么久我都还是以为钱会省下来花给家人。看到那个包的时候，想起了妈妈，她好像也从来没给自己买过一个包~
提供了一种养老方案，人生难在接踵而来的苦难，但是总有办法过下去的，宣扬这种价值。
虽然是鸡汤型喜剧电影。看完简直焦虑感爆棚。过于理想化的大团圆结尾，更像编剧摆烂。天海女王都没有挽救这个烂剧本
我真的无法对这种套着温馨的和解片子产生共情 哪怕是天海
那晚下班回来躺在沙发，打开电视慢慢享受，海哥演的很好，剧本比较简单，每次选题都是贴近社会的，有意义
虽然偏漫画风格的开端和穿插不是很喜欢，不过还是很爱这种节奏和后来高能的“大泉健三骗取养老金案”，犊子两口子人性相当好，丈夫对家庭的“四个意识”都很强，婆婆虽然不是省油的灯，不过也不属于作妖派的，最后的寿宴装扮气质连它们的徳仁皇后雅子和明仁上皇后美智子都达不到呢，还得是戏骨出马才能撑起那不错国的尊严。
很真实的剧情，生活的点滴与无奈，不是年轻人正在经历的么。
过好平淡的每一天，起伏中也便有了转机
非常愉快的喜剧片，很适合了解日本一些文化经济状况
天海“我也是”
