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.
斯蒂芬金式p孩故事爱好者非常喜欢 满嘴爆粗的妹妹太可爱了
boys help boys ，正义必胜！
这兄妹俩太可爱了，5保1雀氏妙，幸好结尾没搞花里胡哨
3.7！是我的菜！我就喜欢这种哈哈！要是拍成六集的剧就更好了，芬恩学习的过程可以一步步来。罗宾真的够意思我哭！妹妹太好了！被兄妹情感动到！全程居然被小鬼吓到了两次！！！我好怂！
看到45分钟以后 我再也不能耐着性子告诉自己坚持看下去了…不管是剧情片还是惊悚片 45分钟的铺陈都没办法让你共情下去的话 不管你结尾怎么反转我也不想看了…
做个真正善良的人，连亡灵都会帮你，还有什么理由不勇敢，奋起一战。
鬼既然能凭空移动甚至扔水瓶，那不能趁凶手睡觉干掉他吗？就算不用刀杀，下个药应该没问题吧，感觉这有点败笔
这是个励志的故事，所有人都在帮助芬成为勇敢和不被欺负的少年。
3.土能从马桶冲走?????
呜呜呜但是我好喜欢！虽然bug很多，但是男主很可爱！妹妹真的是我的互联网嘴替哈哈哈哈
小女孩通灵是打雷biopic吧哈哈哈 小男孩长的好像霍克
这部电影告诉我们注重体育运动的重要性，小男孩平时打棒球让他有了强大的臂力，在关键时刻救了他
我还以为男主出来跟寂静岭一样，然后她妹梦里又是一个真实世界
你终将为自己而战
所以黑色电话的由头是。最后的反杀确实很过瘾精彩，能反杀，是所有死去的人的尝试合集，试出来的一条路。还有，没有说为何这样做。
kids helping kids。但剧情设置太简陋，电话的来源、梦的来源、鬼魂的来源，这些统统都没说，全靠架空的设定盲目地推剧情。只有几处有jump scare，恐怖不算，只能算个惊悚片。反派形象塑造浅薄无力。
俩小朋友很可爱，伊桑戴着面具也觉得帅，剧情就一般啦，比较无聊。我是年纪大了么，鬼片让我毫无感觉。
就像看短篇小说，尽管知道套路和结局，但是就是一口气到底
推荐观看。很有《怪奇物语》的感觉，共享80年代、孩子、灵异、救人这些关键词。比起恐怖片，其实更像是惊悚片，小女孩说脏话全场哄堂大笑。前面节奏有点慢，后半部层层递进堆积到最后爆发。
一部套路模版片却这么爽，反派更加凶残变态归功于伊桑霍克，勇敢的妹妹和五位受害者的力量保护了男孩，最后的反杀复仇电话嘲讽真的爽翻了，Mason年纪小演技好撑起了不错的独角戏。
