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.
单纯对我来说，这部电影或是戏剧体验感极佳，风格上简直是在我的G点跳舞…
戏剧总有一种魔力，会把电影拽入平庸的深渊。科恩找到了表现主义这把钥匙，打开了那扇联通两个世界的门。我看完震撼得只想问：“科恩，兄dei！考虑把莎士比亚都拍一遍嘛？”
还以为我是第一次接触麦克白的剧情，没想到已经在《蜘蛛巢城》里看过一次了。
明亮的夏天最好的朋友，別管未來如何試著不去想它，先過好現在的生活去喜歡自己的生活，戳爺真的太可愛了，🎶也超好聽。
戳爷还挺帅 演技不赖
又是一版极具风格化的《麦克白》。与库泽尔版大量的苏格兰实地取景相反，科恩兄这次回归了既表现主义又极简的棚拍美学，表演风格也很大程度上加强了影片的舞台感。但总体来说改编的还是有些太中规中矩了，两位主演异于寻常的“高龄”也并未如预料中的那样带来新的解读，表演最为出彩的反而是饰演女巫的Kathryn Hunter和饰演Ross的Alex Hassell。同时也几乎看不到过往科恩的影子，也许这标志着单飞以后的新阶段？
影片的摄影美术带来的肃杀仪式感完美匹配莎士比亚百转千回的台词，看似没有新东西，完成度鲜有匹敌，去年最精彩的英语片之一。这就看出编导和演员的实力了，虽然演员分别操着美白、美黑、英格兰、爱尔兰等口音，情绪水乳交融，组合在一起毫无违和感，所以《驾驶我的车》戏中戏看着难受和大家操不同语言关系不大，纯粹就是演得烂，不管这是不是编导刻意的安排。Carter Burwell生涯最佳音乐之一，魔音绕梁。
摄影太过惊艳；匕首形状的门把手；树叶涌进大厅

欲望本身无罪，一辈子就这么短，哪个人也不应该承受艾滋，戴套吧，悠着点吧。特洛耶希文长得也太美好了以至于我认为主角应该是积极的，等待总是难熬，况且是三个月的等待，到底有没有那该死的艾滋，到底是过好现在还是计划好将来，没关系，有人陪着，能好好面对还是充满希望。
留白！要留白！不是让你搞音乐剧。布景、摄影加分。但实在不如《蜘蛛巢城》。
在陈旧的戏剧中继续萃取更冷峻严酷的张力，Joel Coen让”莎士比亚”重现光彩！
哪哪儿都不对味，包括表演，黑奴版麦克白很别扭
这是大家都熟悉的歌手兼演员戳爷主演的同性新片，电影里有很多镜头都是怼脸拍，但是戳爷的美貌依然让人炫目。
我为他付出真心，他却只把我当成夏日的“消遣”。戳爷真的太适合演电影了！！！夏日感拉满了！
戳爷的颜值太适合这种角色了，爱上不该爱的人，无所谓还年轻。但还要多久，我已经等不及。
Oh No！！看到评论副cp依然be，不想看直接一星为敬！！编剧脑子有坑！如果后续真为他们开剧我再来补和改星。
黑与白，光与影，宫廷服饰与现代建筑，美国人演绎着英国戏剧，很有冲突性。有几个场景让我想起伯格曼的《第七封印》，其中乌鸦的形象确实是本片亮点，但拍的太好了，导致片中的预言有一种神明感，麦克白的人性反而显不平衡，把麦克白从一个悲剧故事拍成了寓言故事，这部分真的仁者见仁 智者见智了。ps只希望丹尼泽华盛顿别走摩根佛里曼那种说教老头的路线。
这集换导演了还是摄像换了，这个船太带劲了，上头，最美感的一次
最近看的唯一一部青春片，我是颜控，爱了。
