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.
本以为是部大女主复仇的爽片，但其实是部底色深沉的历史传记片，讲述了上世纪60、70年代女性争取权益的往事，我从中得以一窥印度的历史与思想，还感受到特别强烈的地域与时代局限性。单论制作水平，这部电影叙事很平实，镜头有质感，甚至连印度歌舞的插入也结合剧情发展与人物情绪做了专门编排，于是虽然片长2.5h且主题严肃，看下来也不觉得太长。
甘古拜传记。一个致力于将MY合法化的可怜人。社会应该惩罚人口买卖的人，而不是受害者，印度的底层文化决定了产生这种冲突的必然性。想维护自己的权益，只能靠自己的牺牲和奋斗，靠别人是不可能实现的
女主角是有人格魅力的，美丽、聪慧、勇敢，审时度势善于利用资源，在特定的社会背景下我倒觉得不必高高在上挑剔性别不平等，这已经是她们出生自带的debuff，如果跳不出阶级桎梏性别歧视，保全4000人也很伟大。但你都知道让妓女的后代不要继续沦为妓女，还落点在促进性交易合法，变相打通“市场”流通，我难以接受。
如果有人在煽动你和家人的对立情绪，让你远离家人，那你一定要警惕，这人不是什么好鸟。
印度电影中间穿插的歌舞其实不单纯是特色表现，也是其制作技巧，用来表达主人公心理活动的具像化。
就是莫名对苦难开出的花有好感🤷♂️ 这个意识形态真是从小洗来的啊…
PS:与小男友互撩的几段，挑逗推拉，极致暧昧，没有情欲却胜似情欲。
不知是片子拍的潦草，还是本人就是如此行事，剧情极其不合逻辑。沦落红灯区没有想办法出逃？老鸨死后为何不解放妓女们，而是保留妓院形式为前提给妓女们一些权利？危机关键时刻有黑老大撑腰每次都化险为夷，一路爬上区长。这是印度封建社会下的女性解放？无语，演的跟大女主一样，什么玩意儿
看片头连放两次“不能看做传记”的求生欲，就知道这是美化后的传记电影。甘谷拜演得极好，在柔弱、英气、霸气之间转换得很好。她的出身，让人对她想做的事感到不可思议，细想却又非常能理解。可惜结尾过于为zf站台了……
我好喜欢车里那段戏，印度电影对于正义和力量的诠释也很奇妙
女主又美又攻的忍不住看完，立意不错 剧情挺空的。女主的声音真好听。
我很喜欢女主角眼神的感觉。
3.5
太喜欢女主了，有胆量有智慧 朋友死的那块好虐 哎这些女人都好惨
评论区就能真实反映社会对女性有多严格。女主所争取的卖淫合法化，是因为她所处的社会现状，没有办法让她们这群黑玫瑰变回白玫瑰，那她能争取的就是让黑玫瑰们也能拥有公平生存的土壤和肥料。站在道德高地的一部分人，才是最肮脏的。
是在泥潭里奋力挣扎才得以获取的一点点本就应该有的权利。
冲着大女主的噱头去看的，宝莱坞电影太过理想化反而非常不真实，花了四次才把后1/3看完，MY合法化很割裂，唯有女主颜值还行
女主的目的是保护女孩 特别费劲见到总理后提要求：卖淫合法化
女性中需要每个人都站起来为我们自己奋斗和争取平权，不能把这个世界继续让给另一性别继续“统治”。
玫瑰有很多颜色，我们可以是任何颜色。
