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.
我还蛮喜欢，素食者的肉最美味，因此成了食肉者的最爱，还有女婿那套不吃荤食的理论，感觉导演还是喜欢吃肉的吧。
哈哈，同样的吃人题材，角度要比《新鲜》的老套路好玩多了。
前半小时很生动很法兰西，后半程高度类型化后有点泄气
yue…伊朗猪真的那么好吃吗。翻译得好幽默😅
反极端动保黑色幽默的B级cult片，很黄很暴力，但整体氛围却很轻松愉快。涉及的政治正确敏感议题也很多，讽刺拉满，导演很是敢拍。

3、关于打造爆品的思考：假如有一天断供了，是不是这盘生意就没救了？哈哈哈
翻译一定是个小可爱，翻译黄秋生真的很搞笑也很可爱，我特地回头翻看了一下介绍黄秋生的片段，画面内容并不是黄秋生，就酱
内核其实是个家庭/婚姻故事，经营不善的屠夫，梦想成为连环杀手的妻子，掉进钱眼里的老友和喋喋不休的素食“伊朗猪”
7.2分。还是很有些看头，虽然不算特别经典
Your life is at steak.
三条总结:1、吃素的人不一定善良 2、老实人被逼急了也很可怕 3、越好吃的东西越有可能带来罪恶
茨威格作品，肉体摧残与精神不垮交替，真实与虚幻交替，酒店里与轮船上交替。
恶趣味cult片。素食主义者在法国这么激进吗？状态感觉好像国内的爱狗人士。
这恐怖的拖沓，无聊，慢唧唧，夕阳散步感真的很法国。字幕翻译一直在致敬黄秋生，也蛮搞笑的。
精神的剥削比肉体的受难来的更苦一些。不同时空场景的转换和对比。大型PTSD现场。男主给我的感觉非常像麦叔，看评论很多都再说跟原著差太多，可能因为我没有看过原著，所以觉得作为一部完整的影片来说还是蛮不错的。最近看的一本书还有这部电影都提到了《奥德赛》，我决定找时间来看一下。
把vegetarian vegan 黑人、穆斯林、女人全部戏谑一遍，抛开所有政治正确，所以非常轻松自在，喜剧效果拉满
风光秀丽的城市，美味的早餐，甜蜜的爱情，热闹的舞会…
不能选标签了？有些垃圾部门早点滚吧。。。黑了一片啊，笑死
很有意思的黑色幽默+讽刺电影，结尾太仓促扣一星。
