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.
良两星都给可爱的狗。
就… 适合跟小朋友一起看 寓教于乐。大红狗一出现，脑子就自动跳到前段时间看的那只红熊猫去了… 相对来说，更喜欢红熊猫呢。
看了半小时，觉得很无聊，这种狗和人的故事已经拍烂了，而这条狗也不可爱
So, a story that began with two lost souls, ends with one big family.
节奏紧凑，演员表演在位，主创态度认真，最近国产电影市场完全找不到竞争对手了，不给四分过不去。但是抛开这些，剧情因为时长限制还是有一些bug无法解释，如果能是个短剧或许更好。
表面上是破了局 撕了面子保了里子 其实留下各种烂摊子——自命不凡药不然 大逆不道黄烟烟 耿耿于怀许愿……五脉子孙后代也太不让人省心了——药丸💊
如果给小孩子看感觉还不错，巨大的毛茸茸太可爱了。
看见欧文他爹在上海拥有一套大庄园的时候我真的很想给他做后母🥲
就是很水很套路的那种故事。说实话给两星都嫌多一星半吧。
笑死 😂
非常适合美国市场的典型宠物电影，只不过主角变成了CGI制作的大红狗。里面的两个小孩挺可爱的，反派貌似也没那么坏的样子。小男孩他父亲突然蹦出几句中文倒是让我措不及防。
如果拍成剧集会不会展开些。感觉太仓促。有看舞台剧的感觉。
And so, a story that began with two lost souls ends with one big family: a little girl, a giant red dog, and a city that came together because of them.
也不能忽略这狗搞破坏的能力啊，家里什么都不是完好的，所以送到动物乐园，在野外待着才是最好的。
从小就看好莱坞的家庭片，其实这样一成不变的状态也很好，就是很温暖的样子。挺舒服的！
演员阵容看起来好像可以，也算是有名的ip，拍成这个样子，每个人都在不同的片子里，也挺神奇的。虽然你大爷还是你大爷，但装瞎的大爷好眼熟，硬汉小伙看起来一表人才，说话就破功，蔫坏儿和大红袄，how old are you
实在一般般，看过原著，看过电视剧，看这部电影完全代入不进去。
没看之前：一个儿童电影能难看到哪里去 看了之后：原来真的会把儿童电影拍烂
太少儿了，拉布拉多为原型的狗子也不是很戳我，不是很可爱。
就是怎么说……剧本真的太烂了，无聊到我2倍速看的
