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.
主要是反派做的壞事是盜版卡通角色 還挺有意思的 然後眼花繚亂的ip也仍然能戳中我的笑點啦 尤其是蝙蝠俠大戰ET（我也原諒你了
这个故事其实换成现代少女梦回大上海一点违和都没有
和Baby Driver类似，喜欢音乐不一定要拍剧情片对不对？硬拍，结果就真没什么好剧情…感觉Edgar Wright真的只能拍直男兄弟情
3.5星。我一看这小丫头片子，还有两幅面孔。
充滿著濃郁的Edgar Wright趣味。雖然結尾幾個twist其實很無聊，但整部戲拍得酣暢淋漓，好幾處甚至明顯來自Polanski心理驚悚片影響，加上美術、配樂、聲音的豐富設計，簡直看到心潮澎拜！
《昔日美少年影星放弃身材管理走上不归路是为哪般》《过气cp再就业破镜重圆二三事》/3d毛茸茸好可爱！两只摇尾巴可爱！达斯米奇宇宙玩梗不烧钱系列/多一星给AUNT MAN
如果说Baby Driver质量欠佳但依然是一部纯正的Edgar Wright影片，那么本片就可以正式宣布他作为一个auteur的死亡。曾经赖以成名的剪辑风格完全丧失不见，标志性的英式幽默也荡然无存，但对铅黄风格的模仿让前两幕至少字面意义的好看，直到第三幕的彻底崩塌：影片高潮极其拧巴的处理以及完全画蛇添足的尾声。可惜了戴安娜·瑞格女爵士完美的谢幕演出
怪不得评分低，结尾反转简直搞笑。主题以及前面的剧情很喜欢，鬼魂的画面也不错，镜像设计非常棒，这些优点让我可以忽略主角校园部分故事线的薄弱。结果……？我真不想把这个问题归结于导演是男性，但明明不用如此反转（而且反转还有逻辑问题），按照前面的剧情顺着发展下去，也会有足够的高潮戏啊……打个比方，导演先是建了一个主题公园，然后又亲手爆破了它。不理解，实在无法理解。
埃德加赖特没有让人失望。这分低的，豆瓣是有多不待见恐怖片？
埃德加赖特就是故事再烂，音乐的处理还是一直在线的。
有老版《阴风阵阵》的感觉。安雅·泰勒-乔伊简直太美了。
如果后半段女主能少跑点或许就给4星了、运镜还是很优秀，但不知道主题是啥
逐利才是资本万古不变的本性，谁又敢说救援队的大伙不是被迫再营业呢。得了，与其多想不如拿着手柄找个伴再来局松鼠大作战呀。
金曲点唱机+复古服装秀。看完又想去伦敦了。
Anya好漂亮，要是拍成剧就好了，剧本可以细化点。女主说话为什么要那个声音，好像甜茶。没想到还有Sam，大帅哥！总的来说还是预告片好看，我前一天晚上看了这个还做噩梦了
女权崛起，男人收皮。托马辛和安雅两美斗艳，各种运镜剪辑花样翻新，各级神同步惊喜无限，一波下来反转不断，走向终究猜不透，但解谜过程流于“恐怖片”，满满的“编不下去”，教人失望。
我一点都不同情那些被杀的嫖客，但是同情梦想，身体和灵魂都被践踏，还为此禁锢了一生的 Sandie. Eloise 原来不是精神问题而是阴阳眼的样子
有时候“对味”的感觉真是妙不可言；虽然这个恐怖故事的“恐怖”非常小儿科，但电影的氛围和调调太迷人了，癫狂也如此自信昂扬，疯魔也如此惊艳万方，在纸醉金迷和灯红酒绿的堕落中，一袭殷红魅影噬魂般的游荡与嗅探，所到之处凝固了时间，尘封了悔恨，收殓了罪恶，最终在地狱之火里褪去了束缚，解脱了秘辛，回归了自由，结局虽平淡却也算完美。//PS. 运镜与配乐非常棒，安雅简直是人间尤物的存在。
托马辛的演技还是被安雅按在地上摩擦了，不过演的也非常不错。男主角选的也好，长得不帅这才像舔狗。。。希望托马辛不要禁锢在恐怖片里。60年代的质感演绎的真好，胸大即是正义。
图书馆搜过往报纸和老警察的言论都是伏笔，误入歧途无法自拔的桑迪不只是可怜人，也是善用屠刀的连环谋杀犯，从一开始报出名号的时候她就不是一个傻乎乎的小姑娘，接受潜规则就难免会被潜规则利用。惊魂梦魇实则是没有面孔的游魂视角，拼凑出桑迪在伦敦从追梦到堕落的生活。女主多次先入为主的误会，以及试图改变过去的迫切，都吸引着人往下看下去。
