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.
自己的人生是自己的
救命，给一星实在对不起片方，但是，作为一部2021年的电影…2021啊！我看懂了，但大受震撼。
亲子关系的一部电影，感觉是分裂成2个角色，跟着自己负面情绪越长越大，有不少地方还是觉得比较恶心的，虽然情节上有点老旧了，但是最后的结局是在是妙。女主的演技还蛮不错的。
畸形的家庭/母女关系下，偶发的饲养怪物成为一种善/恶培养皿，而结果其实是不证自明的，也是符合「父母皆祸害」的观点。
哇 好北欧的horror。小女孩太能演了吧。
3.5/母亲节前后放映很应景；生命就是一种母婴遗传病，治好了就是《turning red》，治不好就是这部片子或者《黑天鹅》（不是……影片中的符号都比较好理解，男性也一如既往地充当着或怯懦或随和的背景板；可能对于已经变得cynical的观众来说，这类主题和表现方式已经很难造成什么感官之外的触动了……
救命，给一星实在对不起片方，但是，作为一部2021年的电影…2021啊！我看懂了，但大受震撼。
不讨厌，也没有多少喜欢，感动不起来了。
嗯，创意蛮好，拍出来还是无聊的
除了润出去的华人家庭，原来北欧的亲子关系也这么紧张啊，大家压力都挺大。
表演很不错，概念落地也够完整了，就是文本太老了，换成国内可能还有点搞头
把这篇当成一个童话喜剧片儿，偶尔还能带点感动，这部电影就算合格了。
郑渊洁童话拍成电影就没有其他人什么事了，童年的梦想。。。尤其后期那些，生化保姆病毒集中营 之类
有些片段足够恶心，很有水平
演技不在线本片最大的问题，语言不通倒没怎么影响观影，设定上的漏洞反而没那么重要了……如果演技加强一些，人物形象丰满一些，寓意是可以加分的。可惜了！
昨天在全息宇宙里感受父母包容的无私的爱，今天体验维京式冷血母爱。女孩子好美～大有前途～
学校不单单是教育学生学科知识，还应培养学生做人。
妈妈的设定好疯我好爱（既然是心理惊悚就不要把鸟设计的这么恶心了吧。。。
爸爸的形象深得我心，是我的榜样了可以说是，
艾丽是自然的承载女主底层欲望的存在，所以女主每动念头，艾丽就会行动，并像脱缰的野马一样难以控制。直到女主善良的一面让她认识到事情的严重，不惜摔伤自己也要救下baby。艾丽就像个雏鸟，为了母亲脱掉自己不像人类的鸟嘴，女主对待雏鸟就如母亲对待她。在人类让她失望后，张大嘴巴却回不到鸟形。。最后结局咔嚓一下我没看懂。
