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.
太不适合改成电影了 看在歌的份儿上 真的 太难看了
我大概永远无法理解一个人会社恐到难以和周围的人说话，或者会在不知所措下承认自己没做过的事。但我能理解Alana。每个人心里都有或大或小的残缺，我们只是更善于伪装一些，知道如何表现得像一个正常的普通人，因为我们想要融入身边的人群，想要——至少看上去——不那么孤独。而当我能共情Alana，我也就共情了一部分Evan，因为这个部分的他们本质上是一样的。也正因如此，这部音乐剧改编电影能够不时打动我，让我为剧中人物，其实也是我们自己，心酸难过。音乐很好，好到我可以去听OST的程度——能让我这样做的音乐剧可并不多。
还是Get不到这种硬煽情的电影，也没Get到音乐
9/24票已定！到时候来✍🏻️ 两首新歌蛮好听的。但是跟几年前看的时候心态不一样了。感觉很无力。不管是音乐剧还是电影都没有解决真正的问题。只让人觉得在喊口号，疲软。脸谱化的“受欢迎”的会长也要吃药治疗。然后呢？就感觉很突兀。为了加而加。家庭的矛盾没有得到解决，学校的其他龙套戏份也太过搞笑了。音乐给四星。
最后you will be found挺好听，但仅限于不了解剧情得时候
我真的太爱这个故事了！依旧好哭TAT 跟剧版比起来我更喜欢这个结局，残酷完还有一点温馨。小本是稍微有一点出戏，但影响不大，而且唱得是真的好啊！
Sweet except for the social media part. Every character is stereotypical but the songs are good. Why is everyone so harsh…
才半小时已经尴尬的不行了……怎会如此……明明在西区看现场的时候觉得还挺能代的，so big/so small还看哭了呢……｜看完了，真没必要搞电影版……BP也不适合演这个角色了……
歌太好听了依旧很好哭 但是有些舞台能表现出来的留白和共鸣电影就完全夺走了这种空间
听了几百遍soundtrack但没看过剧场版的本观众表示很喜欢。如果这电影跟剧场版本比起来都算差，那剧场版该好看到什么程度了？
还是Get不到这种硬煽情的电影，也没Get到音乐
故事走心，Evan Hanson的孤独感被处理的得比较深刻。音乐前半部分好过后半部分，喜欢三个男孩子虚幻友情的那一段。后面音乐总体比较普通，亮点极少。
听了这么久的音乐今天终于在大竹林和他一起看了，没看过音乐剧但电影也算是一点小满足，还是很喜欢
Seeing is believing. The movie was a mess. Razzie-worthy director. Hope he won't get snubbed lol.
没有Disappear和Glove和Good4U和Finale的剧情线 简直惨不忍睹 全凭原剧印象跟上电影人物思想
感觉有些唱段比较突兀，但是很喜欢中间那个大合唱。因为我本身也有点心理问题吧，开头狠狠共鸣了。但是后面那个转折点我真的很讨厌，我只要一想到那种出于信任告诉别人结果内容被发到网上的剧情，我就感觉恶心，真的很憎恶这种剧情。
是一个好故事 但作为一部电影本身却无甚亮点
让一个快三十岁但是长得像三十多的演高中生实在是太违和了。。。用巨大的谎言装作是救赎别人但是只是救赎自己的价值观我也十分不能理解 那个学生会主席还是什么 真的全身散发着一种令人讨厌的气质 如果有人这样欺骗我 我应该真的会想让他去死没看过原版音乐剧 但既然做成电影 本质是电影 唱歌的部分未免也占了太大部分 年度烂片
太长了吧 没什么很吸引人的点 ben不太适合演高中生
电影改编给原作大减分了
