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.
中二的可爱呀。都2022了，那些数的出来的金属乐队还是二三十年前的，哎
拍得不错。一看就放不下，二个多小时不知不觉就过去了。自由，无论肤色，无论立场。
这种风格电影就很难受，首先完全没有共鸣，其次观感太差，全是杀马特非主流辣眼睛，然后说内容吧主角有点反社会人格自己没啥本事莫名其妙谁都看不上，几个主要人物都是恶心的发型，不好看的脸，粗鄙的语言，目中无人的眼光，沙雕的乐队名操骷髅？不感兴趣的主题死亡重金属，实在提不起劲
感觉像是给我的礼物，当一部电影里每首歌都会唱，每首歌都会弹的感觉太爽了
再想一想，活结二代都出道了，摇滚乐什么时候能再登主流舞台！
大提琴拉起来真是酷，尤其是女生。。。就饭吃看看就算了的电影
如此小清新的重金属乐队？hhhh用大提琴玩摇滚真得帅爆了
想到摇滚校园。一部用金属摇滚🤘🏻讲的校园故事，不需要玩出花，简简单单也就够了。不过最后两首歌挺好听的，大提琴万能啊哈哈哈哈
为何豆瓣没有男主演Thabo Rametsi的词条？
你不是一个错误，别让他们纠正你。最后一曲为电影拉回一星，女主的演奏美到我灵魂出窍！
美国高中校园故事的框架：边缘人物逆袭，在比赛中大放异彩。然后塞了点金属的主题和音乐。
在私影里看着几个金属壬干着朋克的事，我和她却什么也没干:(
青春系列结合金属到这个程度还是可以了，三位演员都属于有眼缘的那类，燥起来更表现在生命状态而不是空话，如果人的一生都能如此燃烧就好了。三星半。
SkullFlower确实是更好的名字。以及你们这样会让我误会架子鼓其实很好学……

What's the price of freedom? Everything!
我竟然觉得是好看的！最大亮点是Emily！太酷了！
披着metal外壳的老套成长鸡汤片，that's all.
金属外壳的青春片，妈的居然是权利的游戏编剧，男主格子衬衫加卫衣像极了从前的我
