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.
你都变成那么大的龙了还不帮老丈人拿行李？！拳头硬了！！
平平无奇的成长向故事，在一部电影里发现了无数似曾相识的影子。
德古拉变人约翰尼变怪兽梗。三人行越来越觉得Mevis像电灯泡了怎么办……
这个制作，能看出花功夫了，7分。故事还是不够。没有同期喜羊羊热血，另外也有点其他故事的影子。
我觉得比最无聊的上一部好多了，还可以，虽然依旧俗套，不过又一个系列在成长中画上了句号，且看且珍惜。
烤棉花糖夹小饼干真的很好吃！
我睡了两觉，小朋友说很好看，帮他给五分吧。
“ 拨升烧焦的棉花糖你会发现甜室软绵的内在只要你用心去发掘。”
being a human is the worst
老丈人把女婿逼成怪兽，可惜几个变人的笑点没咋发挥出来，平庸到连 Adam Sandler 都不来配音了，彩蛋极其恐怖……看在系列情怀上勉强加一星
索尼的动画往往讲的都是现代性话题，比如这一部是关于人的肉身，而迪士尼的动画即使背景坐落于现代，内里也是古典神话故事。皮克斯则是…动画界论文电影？德古拉就是坠可爱的！女婿不能比…
无论怎么说比上一部好一些，希望下一部可以再接再厉
有生之年居然还能进电影院...感动哭了...
剧情和特效各方面都还不错，不过剧情比较适合成年人看，小朋友们不一定能看懂。
带着女儿去看的，因为游乐场限流先去看了场随机电影。我们家爸爸看了估计要气死，这么好的女儿让猪拱了
情绪低落，无聊时可以看看，热闹是主题，夹着一些小感动
科幻题材，注入超英元素：宇宙魔方、黑豹盔甲、蜘蛛侠救火车、环太平洋巨人大战等剧情比比皆是，感觉就是在熊出没的基础上把超英故事堆放安插，但原创几乎没有，这也是目前国漫的一大短板。
不过精灵旅社一贯的无厘头沙雕风格还是很有意思的。
怎么指望心眼歪了的人能拍出多么好得作品。。。
身份互换梗也好，丛林探险梗也好，家庭和解梗也好，其实美式好莱坞的编剧们也陷入了一种创作的枯竭的困顿期，那些反复的套路是如此的乏味和苍白。令人不禁疑惑是不是编剧只是拿着底薪随便从一堆老片里拼出来一套剧本。
