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.
虽然很简单的一个温馨的片子，也就是一个很简单的人物故事，但却通过晚年的奶奶把奶奶一生的性格都描绘的淋漓尽致。像兰普林这样又美又飒，又有自己的性格，又有品位的奶奶，谁又不希望拥有呢？最后的镜头落在那个半杯杜松子酒上，泪目…
日本从《一公升的眼泪》开始就喜欢拍这种“我得的是疑难杂症，很快就会死，但我有一个永远都不会忘记的心上人”。一公升的眼泪成功在他好歹是个连续剧，还能让病人励志地和病魔斗争，这电影就是个废，斗病全程不露脸，外加哥哥被骗，而且还特别偏执（别说还挺真实）。最恶心的是唯一见了一面扶了一把的老奶奶掉了的帽子过了几个月再看一眼立刻就能知道是那个时候的帽子，这小哥记忆力真是前无古人后无来者。
很治愈的片子，只是年轻一代的演技有待提升，如果你对现阶段的人生感到失望，不妨看一看。
这是一部新西兰的电影，片尾年轻人对奶奶的送别，采用了传统的毛利舞，祖孙三代，各有各的问题，而最后能够和解，皆得圆满。
比想象中的更加平淡。除了兰普林奶奶，基本上没啥可看的。
还行 无聊可以看 但大麻酒精慢性自杀 用这种看似酷的东西讲珍爱生命 活出自我的话 未免有点讽刺
感觉男主颜值忽高忽低orz中间还觉得小白替阿真难过挺无语的，救自己最重要吧，结果原来本来就是阿真。可惜世界上没有自杀后再借来的一百天，没有后悔的机会。哦对，学姐那对百合真的磕到了一会，但可惜小莉没有勇敢！！
中二感十足啊 其实每个人都是一个个体 都应该自己对自己负责 有人关注值得庆贺 没人在意才是人生常态 人生的确是一场寄宿旅行 因为不同时段的人的内核 都会依靠这副唯一的肉体活着

在火光中跳舞 在日出时死亡 杜松子酒是我想平静也愿疯狂
喜欢这样的叙述方式，平铺的叙事中，穿插着主人公寻找真相。
每一次执行者奇奇怪怪出来的方式都是我的笑点。尤其是最后一次那句“整个人还打两份工，看来生活很困难”莫名戳到笑点。
每个自我意识过剩的青少年都应该看看这部电影。
还有比兰奶奶更合适这个角色的吗？这类题材不指望新意而是心意，演员有说服力就毫无抵抗力。

那最后的日出
把俗套拍成细腻柔软的催泪弹。不至于这么低分
当你老了，你想要过什么样的人生？前天跟一群老太太汗蒸的时候，我和同事聊天，以后退休了是不是也是过着这样的生活？我说应该不是，我们都懒得出门，以后老了，大概是3息投影来帮我们见面逛街等等。
还行吧，比起《花束般的恋爱》还是要弱一些。毕竟这种病，很从恋人是碰不到的，能找到共鸣的不多。
我也想轰轰烈烈地过完一生，然后有尊严地死去。
