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.
在深夜无人的小巷里跳舞，在闭关的海洋公园约会，全都好浪漫啊。只是稍微想起 总会慢慢忘记 ——从终点看回来的爱情
🚕
BE倒叙后成为一种HE. 喜欢公园长椅上等候妻子男人的那条线。喜欢17年那个生日。要是再前几天看的话，刚好是男主角戏里的下一个生日啊，遗憾这种遗憾。女主真的是等比例长大的啊。
好喜欢池松壮亮！好喜欢池松壮亮！请和我谈恋爱！
花束みたいな恋をしたanother version
两位映画スダー太会演了。马上想从头再看一次。
中国电影牛逼
刚刚看完 有点泪目了 青春的样子我好怀念啊 那种很多人为了同一个目标 不去管什么意义不意义 认定了就一往直前的样子真美啊 你只能被自己定义
一定会被拿来对比《花束般的恋爱》，也的确是比花束好看了一大截。片段的倒叙的在日子流逝中那些说不清也道不明的触动里，总是会莫名想起一些，关于甜蜜的酸楚的爱过的遗憾的。
很讨喜的选择，从题材到故事情节，跳出框框，就已经胜利，所以本来只有三星的作品给了四星。虽然很扯，但基本算是把故事给填充完整又有趣，几个小年轻也算完成表演任务。多一些这样阳光又正面的青春剧，多姿多彩而非只有男女爱情。
谁说男孩子不能学花样游泳，四十个男生的表演甚至更精彩。
好久没有看过这种不撕 没有感情线 充满热血中二的青春片了
日本人拍这种伤感爱情故事，拍人与人之间的关系和断联，总是不断给人惊喜。
现场都在控诉宣发，但导演确实很不容易了。这个片不至于让长津湖压这么惨吧？
保持着查看曾经的恋人的歌单 交集消失一年多了 歌单却总能重合几首 想来 大数据也是有温度的 比人柔软多了 机械的记忆 和 定向的丢弃 人生在做清扫这个动作的同时 灰尘却粘附在了不知名的各个位置 随着后来的时间弧度 缓缓起伏 也算一种安慰吧
排片也太惨兮兮了，差点被错过了。
很好松居大悟你挽回我了。一上来车内外空间的利用和声音处理就不错，街景拍的有几分贾木许的神韵。剧本简单也扎实，拍出了不少可爱的日常（浇完花再浇浇自己，每天朝着路边的神明拜拜）。超级喜欢出租车确认心意的那场戏，车内到车外，自动车门、灯光和城市风景，调度拉满，还有些幽默在里面。ps永濑正敏才是最贾木许的。
简单讲是用倒序的形式讲述一段爱情关系的由浓转淡，导演很妙地用不同年份同一天的日历去勾勒出时间的绵长，碎片化的叙事最大程度地还原了日常，而不是刻意制造戏剧时刻，看到最后同一片天空下的物是人非，结合片中一再提到的《地球之夜》，不管你是LA的薇诺娜·赖德，还是东京的伊藤沙莉，人类的寂寞时刻总在自顾自地上演。
【4.5】这一次是影像气质上的取胜，选角极妙。想起了《鸟唱》《花恋》和《驾驶我的车》。后疫情时代的追忆潸然，东京青年的现代性情感苦闷通过溯洄的时间流追思，爱情是什么？言语的意义？在浮躁疫情和动乱社会的阴霾之下，通过夜色和东京街景回望地球上的幻梦之夜。日出时让恋爱终结，稍微想起一些…
再补一句，现在学院派的人脸貌体型都是一个模子刻出来的么？
