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.
电影本质是低配费里尼拼盘电影。但是为了Filippo，➕⭐，他太耀眼了！
3.3星。一部关于少年自我成长的文艺大闷片。男主角的郁闷和悲伤，我觉得都不太自然，有一种为悲伤而悲伤的矫情，完全没有看进去。
年度观影 No.501
日后回想起来，最记忆深刻的不是没跳的那场舞，而是在飞驰的快船上放的那束胭红的烟火。
开篇镜头：从海面徐徐推近那不勒斯的城市海岸线，再从海岸线拉远用大全景展现那不勒斯城，最后反转镜头重新回到海面——影片中最多的镜头就是这种推近、拉远和反转——是的，导演本意是想要无限靠近那不勒斯、无限接近自己的家庭、无限进入自己的青春岁月，但最后他还是选择了远离，反转奔赴罗马那座绝美之城，最后他选择了用费里尼的语言而非最真诚最朴素的语言来靠近接近进入自己。
我很同意这句话，并觉得不需要再多说些什么。
22-001. 看不懂這種文藝片。不過構圖是真的不錯
给我一本
索伦蒂诺的《光荣与荣耀》，关于家乡那不勒斯的回忆，马拉多纳，电影、家庭以及青春悸动，
少年对世界的好奇、困惑、憧憬，生命中突如其来的悲伤，前路的抉择与惆怅；同为对过往岁月的缅怀，同样的自传性质，比故弄玄虚的《罗马》自然太多了。
自传式的回忆录，索伦蒂诺一改之前华丽夸张的美学设计，返璞归真地细诉80年代的美好时光，怀旧氛围做得特别细致。也许是过于珍视和沉溺于私人回忆片段，松散的情节没能构筑起强烈的戏剧张力，主人公的情绪往往游离于叙事，自然难以给人带来感染力。看到最后发现和别的青春成长题材区别不大，没让我领悟其人生中最重大的转折如何促使他毅然走上电影创作的道路。
7.5/10。属于保罗·索伦蒂诺的《阿玛柯德》。但相对于费里尼那种在时光与记忆中的游弋，本片的镜头却存在了更多的具名属性，具接近主体化的凝视。
碎片化的叙事需要十足的耐心，但看完知道了是导演的自传，但还是没明白到底要表达什么，可能是我对那段历史不太了解。服装造型以及人物外形都太像甜茶了
告白、性幻想、成长、足球、电影、阳光、夏日、少年、海滩当然还有车厢中远去的风景，是梦想中献给自己的成年礼物了。
和《痛苦与荣耀》确实同出一辙，少年时代的记忆成为构建整个故事的基础，导演摄影方面极为出众，男孩在那不勒斯的生活充斥着动荡与悲喜。他的成长经历中虽然遭遇了一场堪称巨变的悲剧，但却仍旧未曾动摇男孩作为一个那不勒斯的观察者，饱含着对电影的热爱，用心记录下这一切的无常。
动人，断魂
因为突然失去父母而仿佛没有快乐的法比奥，不要崩溃。你有未来。
夏天，头一次体会到湿透的衬衫在身上干掉的夏天，头一次想要抓起镜头记录下某刻的夏天，头一次感受到夕阳的温度的夏天。私人曼妙的年少回忆，或幻想，或现实，透过脑中的构建回顾，在银幕上还魂。感觉算是网飞出钱给导演进行私人创作最好的一部，意大利少年诸如那刻的故事通过大数据归类集总已经拍得太多，但这部仍是真正融入创作者感情的一部。
过往的少年故事和家族往事 看的时候不自觉会猜哪些是导演的亲身经历 这也是影像记录迷人的地方吧 可能连导演自己都已经分辨不出虚构与事实 那不勒斯的海真美啊
不能说算看完了吧，因为不到一半看睡了，后半部拒绝继续看下去
