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.
纯纯冲着卡司看的，故事……可能日本人就喜欢这种吧
这是哪门子接力棒啊，就算最后给了个非常突兀也很俗套的解释我也感觉不到啥爱意，就是美女和她的接盘侠们，而且还是各位都家底雄厚才能这么瞎折腾，要不是永野芽郁谁看这片子啊。
其实有很多想吐槽的地方，说不出来😂。不得不说的是，永野芽郁有一双会说话的眼睛，楚楚可怜的哭戏惹人怜惜 配乐也很棒，泪点全靠它
女主像个物品一样被传递。后妈的爱不能认同！
印象中原著小说里妈妈好像活到了女儿结婚…改编之后咩酱和十元只有一个同框镜头了，是因为十元不想直接承认演了二十多岁女优的妈吗（bushi
可能和我三观太不符合吧
好理想化，就像是梦一样虚幻。但是双女主的演技挺好的
为了咩酱看 但是真的不懂这电影的意义在哪里 为了感动而感动
书更精彩一点 知道剧情也不催泪了但yyyy哭的好好看 在高中阶段原著用了大篇幅描写了和第三个爸爸的故事感觉还没有传达出森宫这个温柔爸爸的形象 可能为了电影时长问题 原著里有些挺好的剧情修改没必要
「卿何如我？」「我與我周旋久，寧作我。」如果被社會和人際所接納的，完全是另一個我的話，對生存意義的倫理拷問就變得尖銳棘手，那我還要「寧作我」，還是索性讓渡所有意味著「意義」的社會身分屬性？如果拼盡全力換來的也不過是一個根本不接納自我的環境，會不會就陷在環島逆行道上永遠無法動彈？PS：醫生的英式口音真的好討打⋯⋯
是个温情故事，充满爱，但结尾说完接力棒的台词，连着片尾的女主姓氏变化，就有点变味。
每个人都在生命中寻找着自己缺失的那一块拼图，有人自私，有人无私，每个选择都会让我们得到些什么，却又会失去些什么。或许我们永远无法找到让我们完整的那一角，但在这个过程中，我们会把珍视的东西传递下去。
搞得跟击鼓传花似的 还好全员好人 不然也太不负责任了吧
这故事好假，不过我也没抱希望就是看看美丽的咩酱，冈田健史怎么从黑晶岩到现在的……不愧……男的……塌房……
好好的一本书能改成这个鬼样，真的是无语…. 书里那么多充满温暖的部分都没有拍出来….要不是看过原著根本不懂这两个多小时到底在看什么
看得我好抑郁. She should just LEAVE.
故作幽默的幽默，冷面笑匠的设定对影片的加成作用并不明显，反而让中间好几场戏的节奏变得有点怪。不过结尾挽回一城，开放式的设定给这个故事的立意上了一个台阶。我知道我还是我，但我却没法控制让我爱的人还继续爱我，他们爱的只是想象中的那个我而已。细细一想其实是个挺伤感的故事，脱离了科幻惊悚设定反倒对现实产生了更多的观照。
莫名其妙的情感，莫名其妙的剧情。（咩真的可爱治愈
冲着yyyy看的，不过这剧情离谱到家了，而且石原里美真的不适合做成遗像，太违和了，就像yyyy演的晨间剧，演三十来岁少妇太违和了，最多二十五六少女顶天了，太违和了，太违和了！
真的是，很神奇的温情片。以及怀疑我咩参演是因为导演看上了她的哭戏。怼脸大特写哭戏真的很动情……未婚夫不是冈田演就更好了55
