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.
我小时候看这类影片的时候，演员都是英国白人。这和政治正确没什么关系，就是喜欢的就是这种风格而已啊…而现在的演员既不帅也不英伦，口音肤色还五花八门😂
原著党很生气😤我不得不重新看一遍07年的洗洗眼睛
达妹的造型和表演都太过于现代，重点点名焊在额头的法式刘海，满满的违和感。这部翻拍怎么选角的啊？除了达妹其余角色都路人脸，还有强行政治正确，无语凝噎……
奥斯汀的作品，18世纪的英格兰，贵族家庭主要人物居然集齐了所有肤色人种，果然是2022魔幻美式zz正确，左派渗透文艺作品的极大胜利。奈何原著底子实在太好，英国乡村太美，再怎样魔幻仍不失为佳作。
看不下去了，灾难片胡说八道，搞笑片乱七八糟。
天！呐！政治正确，毁了我心中的简奥斯汀！男主的脸，毁了我心中的CAPTAIN WENTWORTH！女主的独白，彻底毁了劝导这本原著！
韩国灾难片拍的挺有意思的！差点以为大叔真的要死了，永远抓不住的手，好绝望！幸好电线救了他，救了所有人
很好笑，很感动，韩国人真的好喜欢拍这种夸张剧
●男女主的谈话90%都是屁话文学。把他俩摆床边聊天，就是我助眠工具。
纵然有些缺陷，但也不失为一部算是新颖的改编。
非常现代化的改编，在尝过布里奇顿的甜头之后，网飞运用大数据并结合当下热点演绎英式古典片更加得心应手，是对原著的大颠覆。打破了第四堵墙，让Anne变得酗酒又直球，本奥斯汀粉丝沉默了…忘了原著，当个轻松的摄政时期古典片倒是还行，英伦的沙滩海岸线可真美啊
喜欢达妹，但是不太喜欢这种拍摄方式，难免要和sally的版本比较，显然sally的版本更容易代入，而且这个男主我也不太喜欢，以及Henry怎么又有你？原声也是sally版本比较好
莫名其妙………… 什么时候假日恋人都值得用这么长的篇幅自我感动了
●让黑人穿上白人的传统服饰——我不认为这是对黑人的尊重。
优缺点都很明显的灾难喜剧片。
不得不感叹，韩国电影工业的领先，拍个商业烂片都比国产的好那么多
借简奥斯丁的壳子讲了一个现代爱情故事。无论这是否是导演本意，但古今爱情的对比反而让我更清楚地看到了现代爱情故事的一些特点。当然还是做得太浅了。
特别爆米花的灾难电影，这么没有深度的电影，按理说不该死人的。冲成社长和长颈鹿，加了很多亲切滤镜，真不敢相信是《华丽的度假》导演导的。
化妆师是不是把Henry Golding往不好看方向的化了。
改编的什么玩意儿。
