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.
电影本身潦草一般，女演员也撑不起来女律师的角色，可其中的意义值得多加一星。不知道良知缺失的人是因为没良心才坐上高位，还是因为坐上高位后没良心呢
不喜欢这种真实案例 好无能为力
其实也很希望能够汉化成中文剧版。不知道各位出品方有没有看到韭菜已经准备好了呢
相比于之前的，这一部实在是有点弱了。如果这个是真实事件，影片灾害的震撼度也弱了。
虽然看了一下剧情，很多在呼唤官摄，但没看过剧的我，看完电影还是挺感动的，可惜的是，Coner生前和家人相处的细节，都是口述的，加上看的是无字幕生肉（我的错，求轻拍，上映会去还影票的😣），就会觉得不够丰满。但是，歌还是超级好听的。
把所有证人和律师通通收买了，一丁点希望都不给他们。不过估计这戏也是过不了审了，只能自己慢慢欣赏。
故事有点类似《成瘾剂量》，但感觉不是很有力，可能字幕翻译问题。
拍的一般性，只是这取材于真实事件，真让人悲愤，普通人难道就命如草芥么……
Dear Evan Hansen this is gonna be an amazing day:)
资本为了增值和逐利，使资本家贪婪成性、毫无底线。就像马云刚开始是行业的开创者，像屠龙勇士一样，但现在却成恶龙了，为了赚钱，通过支付宝放高利贷，让年轻人过度消费、借钱消费，让无数青年陷入债务危机。
舞台上一个人solo可能还行，放电影里无聊又漫长，视听语言过于单一。给指条明路：出官摄。
大众商品出了问题后果真的很严重，可怕的是人们或许根本无法把这些不幸联想起来。
挺套路的，胜在演员认真自然吧。韩国也挺奇怪的，明明各种恶性事件都能拍成电影也算“知耻”吧，却没见它“后勇”
理想化的设定太多有点脱离真实感，但总体还是可以. 他们蒙住了我们的嘴，但韩国至少还有电影.
加湿器、除湿器，空气过滤器，这些人类越来越依赖的东西，真的是可以杀人于无形！我们应该多点接触大自然，少用电器。本人喜欢韩国片，思维缜密，机构清新，永远会给人意想不到的惊喜
普通人真的很难能对付得了权贵~~要么靠点小运气~要么~得等他们的内部瓦解~
不是取材真实事件就是好电影，叙事故事的逻辑和内容也很重要。
又是一部靠电影唤醒大众舆论的韩国电影，“我是英国人，才不在乎别的国家的人民的死活”以及结尾，极具讽刺
韩国拍这种题材（真实改编）已经轻车熟路了，每次看完都会震撼到。女主演技稍微用力，其他人都挺自然的。
