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.
看出了导演的一片苦心，想客观的展示双方，展示真实的战争。但是总觉得有那么一点假，情节还有台词，还有表演。就是没那么真实，没那么能打动人。
对于我来讲，故事讲得完整，却不精彩。
春节档补档，终于在正月最后一天还给国师一张电影票。除了喜剧和动画，今年三部正片的题材都不太春节，两部抗美援朝比着赛血腥，奇迹算是唯一一部情绪和画面色彩都向上的了；tpp 9.6 9.5 9.3, db 7.2 7.4 7.7，个人观后感觉水平略有参差但差别不大，但成本这一部绝对是当之无愧的最低——张译的连长首尾打了个酱油，章宇演班长依旧是一口贵阳方言，爱哭的高中生大永倒是把新嫩刻在了脑门上；知道剧情“短小精悍”，但没想到从头到尾九十分钟就是一场设伏打援的无名战役，半小时左右后排一直在玩塑料袋的几位走了之后节奏稍微快了一点点；唯一的“大场面”大概是埋了个雷炸断了坦克履带，相比之下收割人头的每一枪都是“子弹时间”倒没那么多可以吐槽的了…雪地+小战役，跟那部铁道英雄配方相似，可惜各方面都差的太远。
1.张艺谋的第一部春节档电影，想为他声援，想为他呼吁，多一些排片吧！
白天：春节档狗都不看 晚上：行吧爸爸 扣分原因：个人不喜欢战争片，但也知道所有战争片的内核都是反思、反战，而不是全然煽情化的爱国主义教育。看不到任何关于战争的反思、把战争游戏化、技术化，把敌人脸谱化、扭曲化，以及最重要的：爆头断肢妥妥R级，什么时候电影分级？？
米军很人道嘛，不对小孩子开枪。
煽情的片段太多，以至于死一个中国人就哭一下，战争片我还是喜欢集结号，最起码外国人也能看进去。
背铁板这个像在看抗日神片。
拍了两年抗美终于出了一个朝鲜人，除此之外真平庸啊。
不错，狙击手里的美国人比长津湖里的人设要立体，表演也更自然得多。
6.2/10 三一律+条件悬差的对阻戏，大俯拍+各景别镜头的代入感，这是优点。神化的子弹时间、煽情、工具化的配角以及结尾剧情的崩坏，这是缺点。这片子大的框架像是老谋子已经搭建好，女儿只管执行没有太多私人的毕业作。
张末是不是拍的镜头太多了点，我军哭戏也太多了，在生死战场上，永远热泪盈眶，擦干眼泪开始神狙击。一点也不克制。哎
干净，凝炼，非常小的切角，抛弃大场面，专注于一场小战斗，有感染力，最有感受的是展现了情感的柔软和生命的脆弱。
惊讶于章宇从以前的“小弟弟”黄毛变成了现在的“大班长”刘文武，他真的好棒
他们说这是春节几部中最好看的一部了，嗯，不愧是春节档
比隔壁的一堆特效大场面好太多了，全片小人物小任务，真正的以小见大。
还可以，以小见大，虽然是场小遭遇战，但是还原了当时战场的冷峻和残酷。章宇扛起了大部分戏份，棒

因为对手烘托，越简单越好，毕竟这儿的冷哈气还是真实的，还是有朝鲜人民的，还是有战争反思的。
由小见大 国师这创作力没有随着年纪而减退 高产且都维持一个较高水平。 虽说主旋律和稍有夸张 但是美国有Fury为什么我们不能来个打坦克。 何况冷枪冷炮战术确实让我们在朝鲜战场有所收获 年轻人应该有民族自信 多看看这样的电影没坏处。
