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.
那是一个混乱诡谲的时代，但那也是一个仰望星空的时代
影片亲切自然 真情实感 既有少数民族风土人情 也有质朴无华的真挚情感 很多情节感同身受 演员代入感很强 情节每个人都有共鸣 让人感动 需要这样洗涤心灵的好电影！
文学性很强，剧本值5星。对电脑生成的动画还是有点抗拒，感觉像考试作弊。
后半就…
散文化的叙述，讲述那个时代的许许多多熟悉的事情，但没有一个片段可以称得上故事。情感怀旧浅白。
8+，有望拿下2023年奥斯卡最佳动画长片，比青春变形记好，青春变形记看着玩不错，拿奖不至于。
巨大的登月历史背景与小人物家庭生活的 幻想与交织
感觉成长就是不断破除神话的过程
米国人的60年代怀旧片，真人拍摄转动画其实很讨巧，特效上能省一大波钱
It's one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind
真弄不懂，老外拍点狗屁不通的爆米花就都是七八分，国内网大出点有意义的片子就开始谈文艺艺术，到底是我们看不起自己还是豆瓣的评委们就这水平？
故事中规中矩，演员的演技和情感表达都很不错，挺打动人的。
朗措不配拥有爱情吗？他那么帅，这才是我心目中男主的样子啊！
那是一个混乱诡谲的时代，但那也是一个仰望星空的时代
虽然我是导演的粉丝，但是这部电影全程看的都很无趣
少年时代的美国梦，林克莱特对美国六十年代社会风情的回忆录。
月球漫步与小孩的童年回忆 游乐园真好玩 这么多孩子的家庭
韩松老师真的好棒，他还把自己的工资拿出来补贴孩子的伙食费，真的好感动。
大量的旁白碎语，充满着导演对于童年的回忆，对60年代的美国的回忆。
漫长的铺叙似另一篇Boyhood，在回归登月时日时终有回报。登月的平行剪辑有趣。过山车穿过山洞，Linklater也算致敬2001了。
