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.

色调好看，但题材真的刻意又无聊。现在只要挂靠lgbt就能得高分也是绝，搞的我现在都要对此类题材的作品有偏见了。
🤔突然发现真的还是蛮喜欢看校园剧…哈哈哈哈哈哈，假期第一天，懒懒的看个剧…
3.5 很可爱的青春校园电影，虽然剧情很好猜，但看得出来在台词和一些双关语上有认真搞的。
每年不看这种青春气息溢出花式配对当红小明星捧红配角让人忘却现实问题的言情小说代餐电影我就浑身难受
其他剧情和台词也太...呃...女主妈妈很酷很好，就是过开放了吧.....
比想象中还赚人热泪，后半部分真的太感动了（不要因为前半部分有点中二就跳过这部很好看的！）
3.5星。如果少一点cheesy，少一点dramatic，观感会好很多，但总体还是很甜的轻松电影。相比之下，the half of it分寸感更好，更恰到好处
双女主我的爱/一个长得像莉莉一个长得像凡妮莎哈金斯
三星弱，确实老套，“原来你就在我身边”故事，女一女二对手戏太水，悸动得没有说服力
四星给两位女主，太可爱了而且不乱花花
AI妹子太可爱了吧！就是突然唱歌有点尬，很治愈的片～
唔，轻松的小甜片，不再存在身份认同问题，不再存在任何歧视和迷茫，让人感到心脏一紧的只有你真正的爱属于谁，姬片也有这样的标准喜剧青春校园作品了啊，完全的开放，真好。
无聊，但可爱。配乐有girl in red🥰
夏天 青春 彩色 阳光 love 女角越看越喜欢
普普通通
小打小闹青春电影，演员真的都很嫩。Rowan在雪国列车第三季的造型放这个学校肯定收获一大批迷妹
还有那个seven minutes in heaven很好玩的样子哈哈哈哈哈。
无聊的美式校园青春剧，加上热门到已经快不热门的lgbt话题…
这里怎么就没一个长的好看的女的啊.....现在白女都这么丑了吗
