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.
演员演技好，剧本也还可以，但是这个剪辑的能力，相当于把一个有趣的事儿平淡如水的说出来了，就好像我今儿吃饭了一样毫无波澜
这部片子就是克鲁尼的导演梦和阿弗莱克的演技梦的合体，两个人互相迁就对方的梦想，但都明白对方不适合干这个。说实话，二人角色调换，会好很多。
对警匪片没啥兴趣，而且除了打斗部分，其他的节奏有点慢，和我姐一起看的，看的时候全程就是：小崔好帅，小崔看起来好惨啊被打的，小崔不会要死吧，出血了，小崔腿好长。。总结一下《为了崔宇植的2小时》
和同期的贝尔法斯特不约而同的有很多相似之处都是67十年代的西方，不是很富有的家庭但是都有一个温暖的家庭，温暖的爷爷辈守护者指导着大家庭，尤其是文凭不高但是读了很多书的舅舅，在男主成长的道路上教了他很多父亲该教的事情。全篇一直在提回忆录的盛行，全篇也是男主的回忆录，回忆童年家庭的贫穷，回忆了初恋的苦恼，回忆了畜生一样的父亲，以及温柔的舅舅和他的温柔酒吧。
果然是有日影的感觉，那种冷冷的，往人性里面挖的感觉，其实还不如拍成韩影的套路，日本的拧巴看着难受。
原来是小说改编啊…除了略有被反转和动作戏惊到之外没啥感觉。有些套路有些无聊。
这是一个成长的故事啊，我觉得结尾挺好的，为什么一定温馨呢，等你找到那个人的时候，那个人还是你想的人吗。
温柔是挺温柔的，不温不火也是平平无奇的原因
挺温暖的，每个人的世界中都能有一个引领着你的星星在注视着你并带给你闪亮的温柔与勇气。（这部片子里老帅老帅的大本“平实、迷人”）
其实还挺好看的 要不是有大叔在的话 到底是好人还是坏人 真真假假 最后是坏人里的好人 抓到贩毒人员又安全脱壳
题材和设置相当不错，小崔演技退步了，接不住老赵的戏。
完全可以拍成上下部的！原作应该很好看吧。
小崔成长吧
淡淡的，蛮有味道的温情电影， 总比人造爆款好太多！ Ben Affleck 可塑性好强！
心灵捕手的影子蕴含其中。i just fuckin love this kinda movie
平静的深夜，配一瓶不那么凉的好酒，这片子很合适。温柔，酒吧，第一次对酒吧有了向往。人生就是这样，发力早晚不同而已，学霸不代表永远，北大毕业也有卖猪肉的。
整个片子确实很温柔，调性处理得很舒服，但很抱歉，我看不进去这个故事。而且，找不到理由看进去这个人物的塑造。
其实偶尔看看这种平淡的电影也不错，适合度过下午。不过感觉男主和剧本都还差了一点味儿
平淡到乏味 东一榔头西一棒槌 什么都讲了一点 但什么都没讲
个人觉得还行，可能是赵震雄和崔宇植的滤镜加持。对于目前必须把看片时间用在刀刃的我来说，不失望
