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.
啥都有 就是很难看 而且奈飞是不是觉得取景地越多就越好看了 并不是 五分钟换个地反而更无聊
什么《人》，什么《们》，就应该字面翻译为《男人们》
無限複製套娃怪！！！我在的這一場觀影氛圍極好，每個搞笑和嚇人的地方廳裡都有人很自然的反應，感覺也似乎不那麼恐怖了。另：妮可基德曼because here, they are的廣告出來就遭到大家的群嘲我就放心了，看來大家都受不了AMC的這個又臭又冗長的廣告了，是不是簽了協議要放到她息影，LOL
其实还不错，罗素很有回到冬兵，美队3那种时候的感觉，虽然有些地方确实有些“圣母”但总体还好啦。美队作为一个反派喜剧效果多过可怕。
这就是女人生存的世界，男人编织起让人窒息的网。你以为世界多元他们各自不同，才不是呢。他们是共脑共体的存在。里面的苹果、乌鸦、雌雄同体图腾到男人单体繁殖全都是男人最终的YY以此构建的贬低女人的社会。当女人举起斧头不在恐惧不在内疚，所有这些桎梏不堪一击。
See? They're all the same.

动作场面是真的可以，但是也就动作场面可以了。。。然后给我双美各一星。
前面氛围整得还行，特别是树林游荡、隧道那一段。可惜这种又美又瘆得慌的feel没有坚持多久。后面的展开垮掉了，重复啰嗦。好在结尾有高能。
他们明明可以把男主轰死，非要和警察交火……RS7硬核广告
跟漫威片一样，图个热闹，谁管剧情啊，看个阵容也够了。
一部爽剧，从头打到尾，唯一的遗憾就是始终无法营造出谍影重重或者不可能的任务那样经典的紧张感。
标准的动作商业爆米花，动作大场面不必讲，娱乐性稍逊红色通缉令，但就这好莱坞标准质量水准都打算能搞宇宙和衍生，那就实在太没意思了，人隔壁马东锡比这有意思多了。

想想看不知道多久没看到过新的国产动作片了 上一次还是甄子丹和谢霆锋的怒火重案
用各种方式来隐喻男人对女人的迫害。最后一段男生男的连环套是全片亮点了，暗示男人都是一脉相承的，虽然他们表现出来不同的方式迫害女性，归根起来都是想要统治、控制女性。我作为一个男人，觉得父权社会是这样的。我们这个社会需要的是平权，不是女权。
这比国内上半年引进的任何一部动作片都好看，这片不能进电影院看可惜了，良心之作，精力花在了动作设计上，很过瘾
探讨女性在父权社会下的真实境遇、用简笔画勾勒浅薄潦草的toxic masculinity寓言，哪个更安全，哪个更省力？加兰显然明白都是后者。女性的苦难就这样被一种移花接木的方式烹作奇观，雕花摆盘，端上小资观众的餐桌，供人闻着刺鼻的人造香精自我陶醉。它和加兰两部前作一样，都是用大女主假象伪装的厌女电影，本质上甚至是拒绝研究女性的，反而透露出彻头彻尾的男性自恋，真正被符号化的不是“男人”，而是漩涡中心的女性。这样的电影受到追捧，简直是对女性主义的嘲笑。
罗素兄弟快乐电影包=一个过得去的动作指导团队+乍一看有趣其实普通的剧情+转场巨粗字体地名+CallanMulvey，007没看够的AdA特工集锦迎来更多戏份续集。喜欢老埃文斯演坏蛋反派大变态，比利刃出鞘更爱，就是和Ryan对手戏太少了点，打戏也太少。我以为是《秘密特工》结果是《这个杀手不太冷》
