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.
韩国的历史片大概相当于我们的战争片，都属于主旋律类型。只不过不同于我们的只弘扬党和解放军的牺牲奉献，韩国往往会自爆其丑。在这部电影中提到的选举黑幕和愚弄选民，包括对政客丑陋真面目的刻画，国民算什么是让他们干嘛就干嘛的存在，诸如此类的内容在我们的电影里是根本不可能会被允许出现的。不仅仅因为两国政体不同，原因出在更多方面。故事本身不新鲜，但是一众演技派的表演还是让电影可圈可点。很多镜头的布局和打光非常有质感。
很理想主义的片子，不过还是太顺了，也更娱乐了。相比南山部长，还是那个更对胃口。
安娜伊斯但凡出场，都是横冲直撞的，奔跑的状态。她就这样奔赴爱情，去探寻她想要的。多少人妄图成为她，又有多少人，滞留在自己的舒适圈，不敢前行？她明明那么害怕坐电梯，却为了挽留爱人在电梯中相吻。
节奏一般 没啥劲爆 不像棒子的性格 太表面了 字幕做的太差 韩剧社怎么没做这个字幕 凤凰社也可以啊 这个字幕做的太水了
好法好喜欢噢 以为是call me by name式的结尾 一场夏日限定。“我不同意” 阿娜伊斯是明媚又热烈的存在 谁能拒绝呢
她大胆热烈勇敢自由是新时代女性的象征，两位女主不同性格的冲撞让女主迅速，成长，热烈又浪漫的爱谁不喜欢。
中间外场酒会的戏，艾米丽笑得好迷人！
与其说这是一部女权电影，倒不如说，这是一首描绘极致爱恋的十四行诗。任何不被世俗接受的爱情，都应当被冠以绝笔。

个人感觉都已经凸显的很到位了
比较敷衍，又是传统的剧场版全体演员（托马老师直到最后才上十圣刃，他甚至不愿意用烈火三册），纪念意义可以理解，但总体不如平成世代final
这类题材尤为演员试金石。双男主选角精准，演技之外，脸相气韵均符深陷纸牌屋该有的人性刻度。 后半部以及结尾，没想到是那样。让人看罢无限怅惘、不时反刍、无比感喟、深存心田的一部，爱这两个角色，还爱两个好演员。
这其实是一部披着政治表达外衣，其实在讲“认同”的电影。
剧本虽然老套其实还行的。想象大人带着孩子走进影院，既能看到熟悉的过去的骑士也能让孩子看着可以组个骑士的足球队，大饱眼福。作为骑士50周年致敬初代到现在新世代的粉丝很不错的作品。但好像还是逃脱不了骑士剧场版皮套大杂烩的怪圈，看下来总之就是爽的就完事儿了。几点吐槽&感想：剧情的推动全是设定，Century的造型不错，一号父子的传承，多处场景的还原，父子最终还是没能一起去坐新干线但是感情却传承下去了（生硬）
“阿娜伊斯，你可以移山填海。”各方面都做得精细又轻巧，蛮好的
男主黑化导致男二竞选失败，但个人觉得在彼时彼刻，男主不黑化，也是左右不了结果的，说白了就是那时候内外环境还不允许。还是剧本太顺拐，不高级。
拿着小医生无敌形态玩肉搏.....来打的战斗力永远是迷，好在文戏不拉胯，真威人饰演老爷子虽然情怀拉满但是违和感十足，脸实在是太嫩了。 @2022-04-29 12:21:52
韩国人真是敢拍啊，还有这么一段历史。前期老朴还有点人性，后期要靠选举真是不可能了
最终还是感性战胜了理性。anais那句“我不同意！”真霸气。
没想到门田侠一变身就吃瘪，什么时候剧版返场呢，礼拜四的乏力剧情需要一个“英雄”。
