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.
6分 男主破产替军方干脏活，直接受总统授权，绕开国会，在柏林执行非法行动。中途发现杀的人是科研药品拯救世界的叙利亚穆斯林好人，反派自然是美国政府释放病毒祸害几十亿人。最后男主带着好友把下命令的上司等几个人干掉了，但这么大的事情不可能就这么几个人，最后也没交代。也就白左写得出这样的剧本。
神秘契约背后隐藏的危机，原来是一场精心策划的致命阴谋。身处异国孤军奋战，该如何杀出重围、活着回家？
安全屋的惊魂一枪加一分，河边追逐加一分，讥讽米国的虚伪政治用心加一分，战友情也很不错
呃，什么实验室？什么疫苗？什么…………我们可啥也没说哈，这可是你们自己人说的哈……
可能是和现场落差太大，layton、john都比这个男主选角好太多。
PPS:这片出彩的头功应该是……那个声
6.5/10.
中规中矩，倒是一开始James做康复、跑步、卸枪、睡木屋、练习阿拉伯语等等的一系列无语言的动作，把这位受伤特种队员的当前处境，性格，心病，战争印记都慢慢铺开了，马上就抓住了你，代入感很强。
枪战动作戏爽就完事了，另外本福斯特为啥又光荣嗝屁了啊。
他盆友出现后就猜到了故事大致的走向…结尾太仓促了，他盆友是不想活了吗，直接不找障碍物等死了
六分都没有？就冲这演技六分起码的吧。尤其是杰克鲍尔招募男主时，男主迷茫的眼神。剧情也很流畅啊，
3分了 不能再多 剧情和拍摄都有点老了 最后把坏蛋除掉 男主存活下来 感觉有2？
本来没准备看，看到出了蓝光就看了看预告，没啥吸引力，不过看到了小强，就看了看。前面非常无聊又长的铺垫，后面高潮枪战动作戏也完全不行。太浪费时间了。
剧情非常生硬，漏洞很多，战术动作也多不合常理。但剧中主角浓浓的悲伤，贯穿全片，氛围还是渲染的不错的。
这让我联想到了当前的新冠病毒，与美国辉瑞特效药了。
看得我真的特别懵逼，我真的不知道为什么大boss农场主要下令杀掉他，大家都是一起回来的，大家都是一起执行任务的，为什么非要杀掉主角呢？完全是莫名其妙啊，这个逻辑性不合理呀，可能是因为机翻字幕的原因，看着真的让人很懵。节奏其实还可以，故事剧情题材也还不错，能不能学一学别人网飞，搞到爽就行了，别搞些莫名其妙的故事讲好就可以了，这么简单的事都办不好吗？亚马逊也要走的路真的还太远了，好好卖东西去吧。
封闭管理被管的烦死，好像还蛮想看看这种爽片的。//chris pine才几岁啊，怎么老成这副样子！人生为什么好的年华如此短暂，只够拍几部电影时间就用完了！
决战部分的动作戏好仓促。男主上级帮男主杀自己金主缺少说服力。
Tell my son I didn't dead in my sleep.
平庸之作，看开头就知道结尾，萨瑟兰不当小强战斗力就这么低下了呀，海报上的男主磨皮了吧，电影里看起来苍老许多。
