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.
彼此一直吐槽的演技，却变成救命的本领
看过Norseman以后听到挪威话就觉得好笑。挪威人的搞笑都在我的点上。老爹给车充电那个梗排第一，结尾讽刺好莱坞式改编也是亮点。
最后半小时可太爽了。。。节能车那个梗太好笑了。
一些小缺陷吧，节奏把握得一般，卢瑟+碧池组合本来非常亮眼，可惜女主只是mean不够碧池，男主倒是卢瑟得名副其实
前面一小段的婚姻危机拍得很好，后面就开始看得各种肉疼……讽刺面极广，但为了类型化而流于表面，或者说就是为了讨好观众而做的讽刺？如果最后掉进湖里的是老婆，基于前面的判断，估计老公会做出相反的选择。
天杀的混蛋宇宙飞船
男主每次得手后，犯下的致命错误。
好久没看过这么刺激和惊喜的喜剧血浆Cult了！又爽又炸，反转重重。有点像Cult版的史密斯夫妇。作为劳米粉的我，看完本片更爱她了。本片是挪威鬼才《死亡之雪》的导演与劳米拉佩斯《猎杀星期一》后第二部网飞合作的作品，质量可以说在网飞电影里可以拍前三毫无问题。
只能给反转和巧合二星。其它的不好说。①夫妻不和，离婚就是了。可惜，俩夫妻居然是都想着害死对方，拿人身保险。这个三观，实在是让人接受不了。所以，后面的情节再精彩，开头俩人就不咋滴哈。②三个人在俩人卧室上头一夜没有动静，不合理。尤其是拉粑粑，不拉尿的吗？不合情理。③男主的人设，刚开始属于胆子不是很大的那种人，居然直接开枪吧人打死，不合情理。④后面男主杀死了屋里的男人，去看老爹可以，但还在那里跟老爹抒情，难道不应该第一时间去看老婆的情况吗？⑤里面还有许多不和逻辑的地方。当然这是一部爆米花电影哈，但不太算喜剧。尤其是里面血腥味道有点浓哈。。。
当“史密斯夫妇”狭路勇挑“逃狱三王”？！夫妻俩互杀吐槽撕逼的桥段、老婆拯救人渣丈夫菊花的桥段还蛮有趣。当故事进入反杀阶段，全员比赛智商扑街，剧中唯二的硬汉老爹最后挣扎着爬上湖畔的吊床迎着朝阳求仁得仁，一边对儿子说“你是我的骄傲”，一边恐怕在怨念“老夫当年怎么不把你射在墙上！”剧中最猛硬汉逃犯大佬挨了一钉耙再被螺旋桨暴击竟然还可以吊打四方不臣，原来真正的主角光环在他身上。“史密斯夫妇”利用杀戮战场登上事业巅峰，过上了甜蜜幸福的生活，安徒生大法真真是秒赞啊。最后戏中戏翻拍的主角用上了肌肉男黑小哥，嘲弄了一把“政治正确”，顺便把菊花保卫战改成了黑侠大翻身。嗯哼，混好莱坞的果然都是些不要脸的扑街。台词、配乐、剪辑和节奏掌控为片子增色不少。《死亡之雪1/2》也是这厮执导的，操弄番茄酱的风格神形俱佳。
糟糕的开局，但北欧电影人实力的体现就在于能沉得住气，后面故事叙事还是有板有眼的展开。即剧本完整度和最终展现度还是可以的。
男主三次背后杀，无一成功全部失手。
前三分之二和后十分之一都没问题，后面三分之一导演是怎么了？是对血腥镜头欲罢不能吗？是觉得血浆买多了不用浪费吗？还是既然到湖边了那我们不能浪费外景钱？前面还很推荐，演到这里只想快进，没见过这样一心逃跑，不会反杀的主角
因为它能让你感受到希望
哈哈最后问了一句 你是怎么把桌球藏起来的 而且还是三个
老爷子真的加分。
看到一半我就认出来是《猎头游戏》男主角，就知道这一定是一个开头是喜剧，要反转类型的电影
有些我非常非常喜欢的细节。但总体拍得太美国了，就对“有的女的居然不想当妈也不enjoy motherhood” 还是带着震惊感在讲，最后还要莫名其妙搞个语焉不详的和解。剧情高点那场戏达妹没演好。三颗星全给 Olivia Colman
贼：又蠢又坏又TM好色成瘾，真可以。
儿童乐园不适合策划杀人大计，新纳粹必读书目《安妮日记》，三个台球莫问出处，伤口撒盐按罐撒，日出要比日落美，加上各色轰飞爆浆不能少，《死亡之雪》系列的导演还是重归这些恶趣味小电影来得过瘾。
