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.
Like I said, it's not even a feature film, just another fancy music video. 我仿佛是看了一场格莱美颁奖晚会。另外，这种追梦片（或者叫励志片）的剧本里绝对不能没有代价，否则的话，观众（比如我）就会觉得你不是非得去干这个事儿，至少不去的话你也没什么损失。不管怎么说吧，感觉比上一部差远了，果然还是不能对照明娱乐抱有太多期待。以及，这个系列跟《摇滚藏獒》该不会是连着的吧……
虽然评分不高，但是算比较优异的一部政治题材电影，薛和李两个主咖的诠释不必多言。剧本本身也很流畅，唯一瑕疵就在于我看的版本汉译很是蹩脚。但是瑕不掩瑜，总体🉑。
Sometimes under-explained but where else could the Dream come true. I really hope the series goes on and on and on.
2.5 音乐与舞台加成，观感还算不错。不过相比于第一部，这一部选择用事件推动人物，弱化了对人物的刻画，是一种强行续集的投机取巧的做法。
道路与手段永远不能割裂来看。书房的谈话里，李善均用力抹平的表情，到底是袒露心声里掺杂了一些言不由衷，还是言不由衷的袒露着心声，值得回味。
所有的笑点都是变色龙太太克劳利给的，太喜欢克劳利太太了，太太的配音竟然是男导演本尊，可见导演对克劳利太太的爱。
太空秀太棒了，元素多了，细节却没有丢失，我觉得比较第一部，我更喜欢第二部。
勉强算是合格的续集吧，毕竟能写个新故事、引入新角色又能把上一部这么多的角色安放进来还是挺不容易的，但一切好像都来得太容易了。不得不说一句，他们三周搞出来的这东西充其量算个拉斯维加斯大秀，跟音乐剧真的没有半毛钱关系！音乐剧也不是这样搞的！
10月起看了21部院线新片，还是动画片好看，动画片是我最后的避风港。
sing2一直还算比较期待的
Miss Crawly太逗了 完全承包了hhp
场景设计是不错的，但没有被故事打动，没有第一部“跌入谷底，只能向上“的那种点睛之笔了。
儿子看了两遍，第二天一早还在哼那首“I haven‘t found what I looking for”！
电影讲述了韩国政治家和他的白手套。但故事相对来说，格局还是小了些，期间政治斗争略显幼稚，整体比较单薄，像是恢弘历史中的一篇小传，远非正史大作。最后导致金云范与徐昌大决裂的那场戏，能看出是为了营造出高潮催泪的效果，但是铺垫还是不足。但是，两位演员在此的演技仍然值得称颂，真的是脸上每一块肌肉都会演戏，闪躲的眼神，翻红的眼白，精准到秒的眼泪，真是好演员。
卑鄙是卑鄙者的通行证
我不喜欢政治，但是我喜欢政治斗争，阴暗算计，无所不用其极。
很精彩的音乐剧追梦之旅 完美实现了各种真实舞台受局限的效果
我只是想拯救一下我的不开心，这部电影做到了，并且让人心生激动。从逻辑关系来讲有特别牵强的地方，但动画电影的标签可以把那些部分给弱化抹去，并强化视觉去完成更难的场景建设。我爱这锅金曲炖煮，我也爱这个核心主题。当成年人那么无趣的设定了限制了以后，动画或成战鼓，或成慰藉。
动画制作精良，细节都做得非常棒！剧情不去深究，歌挺好听的！4星半
一部根据金大中与其影子军师严昌禄的事迹改编的韩国政治惊悚片，成功地刻画了亲民与正义的政客形象，也表现出了民主与独裁对立下阴暗狡诈的选票政治。但电影以总统梦的政治家与其背后以天才战略搅动竞选作为主线叙事，政客们非黑即白的人物关系以及让渡政治利益的处理非常取巧，通篇看完只感觉是雷声大雨点小。
