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.
而这一次，唐顿庄园，又是多么的和一一相似。到什么程度？电影以一场婚礼开始，以奶奶的葬礼结束，而尾声部分是一个小孩的面孔。
That's life: getting past the unexpected, and perhaps learning from it. // Marriage is a novel, full of the plot twists along the way // I hope you’ll be as happy as our cruel world allows. // Don't steer me, I'm not a racing car. // Stop that noise. I can't hear myself die. 临终都带着幽默 //真实拍摄地Highclere Castle 的确因为拍电影才有资金进行维护
两年前自己一个人无奈之下买了情侣座看唐顿庄园，一对年过半百的恋人携手来看，对角色剧情非常熟悉，一看就是铁粉。当时的自己很羡慕这样的状态，当时的自己也没有料到两年后唐顿2时会遇到自己的另一半，跟他携手走进影院。时间真的会改变和疗愈一切，以及，没有电影的情人节是不完整的。
一开始觉得剧情很碎，但看得津津有味，越看越投入
开头主题曲响起真的会泪目…… 剧情非常紧凑，制作精美，巴罗的爱情线可以的。
完全没看过《唐顿庄园》系列的我，估摸着也会看得云里雾里，提不起兴趣。但我居然看得饶有兴致。同时 30 年代默片走向有声的电影拍摄、法国南部的景致都额外让我觉得“诶居然还包含这些内容”。人物虽然理不清，但是看一半大概就能明白了，快结尾时的时候还开始带入各种角色的情感，与他们共情。7.9/10
所有的记忆都飘向了第一部上映的2019年，当时还是在香港看的，被粤语翻译的各种人名搞到头大。转眼，真应了A New Era，戏里戏外都在告别。
Mary will become her.
唐顿庄园见证了无声电影向有声电影的转变，并做出贡献
还行？没看过剧，当时我看了两眼更喜欢二小姐但她戏份太少
每个人每个片段都那么温暖人心 很多女性角色都各有特点 喜欢Cora的眼神 第一部让我深刻领会尊严教养英式优雅与尊重的影视 但观看时需要电视剧相关背景
加入了迷影元素，却更像流水账了，连英式幽默和煽情都发挥失常。长沙万达解放
我虽然没看过，倒也还好点，还能看进去
气死我了！删了5分钟Barrow和男演员的同性戏！呃呃呃呃啊啊！！（深呼吸）Anyways, 神秘的5分钟，四个月后咱们网盘见吧。我觉得这一部无论是叙事还是摄影都比第一部更好，很喜欢拍电影的情节，但不太明白开头婚礼后Tom和Lucy不是离开了庄园吗，后来怎么又一起去了法国？最后应该是ultimate ending了吧……唉，Granny R.I.P. ps呜呜呜想在大银幕上看大表哥丹叔，不过能看到休叔也很满足了～好，我这个假粉决定开始补剧啦！
剧中每一幕都是精心设计，精致的服饰，不乏幽默的对话，看着很是赏心悦目。
年度最佳音乐剧电影！10年度最佳音乐剧电影！20年度最佳音乐剧电影！LMM我再次感受到了你的爱和努力和才华！我们有你真是幸运！
一个艺术家的牢笼还是羽翼，你更喜欢哪个？去问飞鸟吧。
每看一强行凹出了情节故事线，英国人钟爱的happy ending
和电视人物又或者影视明星一起成长或者变老，很愉快但又不免唏嘘。唐顿庄园电影版走到第二集，告别成为了主题。影片里告别无声电影时代，告别青春时光的美好情感，告别家族中的秤砣；而现实中，我们伟大的演员也快与我们告别了。虽然一如既往的明快画风：乡村田园、别墅海边、影视巨星、婚礼度假，一派好不愉快的景象，却偏偏透露着腐朽与哀亡，这个故事可以一直讲下去，像史诗般的挽歌，唯美动情，但不免哀伤，是时候来点新的力量了。
The end of a fairy tale.
