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.
陪女儿去看,童年在课堂偷偷看了那么多郑爷爷的童话,欠他一张电影票,今天终于补上了,电影情节不完美,拍摄手法也不是那么成熟,但是被小女主给感动到了,那清静明澈的眼神,内心的善良与爱,正是我们每一个人越长大越离我们远去的东西。
还是太刻板了 不如男生贾里女生贾梅那种可爱 质感也不太行
概念老土、创作功利、质感粗糙。如果能真的把家庭部分处理得像情景喜剧,可能会稍微好一点。
当妈的孵化闺女,当爹的孵化同款儿,闺女孵化的鸟人是她心理的自我&黑暗面,逆反、抗拒、嫉妒。Ending,女儿也被同化成了鸟人。鸟人造型蛮恶心的,恐毛的慎入鸭。北欧姑娘的头发是真美,长发飘飘,我眼睛都被晃晕了。
一部小成本的恐怖电影,可惜叙事稍微有点拖沓了。不过最后的开放性结尾我觉得还是很有意思的。
没想到可以带着孩子看我小时候最爱看的故事,电影很好看,前面笑后面哭。孩子说妈妈我想哭,我说你哭吧,妈妈也看哭了
昨天在全息宇宙里感受父母包容的无私的爱,今天体验维京式冷血母爱。女孩子好美~大有前途~
妈妈看到女儿没做好动作,心里不高兴,嘴上却露出恐怖的微笑。女儿浑身压力,却假装和同学笑得那么开心。就喜欢这种虚伪的人物性格!
很好看,妈妈跟女孩的演技都很赞,孵化的是自私贪婪嫉妒的那个她,最后妈妈应该更喜欢这个鸟孩
借一个恐怖故事的外衣,讲述成长故事。很多父母以爱的名义播种在孩子内心仇恨的种子
Body horror的展现好像深得柯南伯格亲传,客体又是女孩,自然引发更强的恐惧体验。母题是非常传统的控制-反抗主干,爱的畸变比怪物更可怖。双重孵化关系,母亲失败,女儿成功,代价无可逆转,结局的安排充满宿命般的悲剧色彩,但表现手法稚嫩且单薄,没能增添悲剧的厚重感。
猎奇版Turning Red,不要脏吓了球球了
明示的精神分裂,虽然老梗却拍的非常棒。用鸟人来隐喻父母的压迫对于孩子身心的影响,以至于异化成了另一个个体。家庭的压抑感是最可怕的,因为你无处可逃。
妈妈脑残 儿子妈宝 爸爸窝囊 女儿有病 一家子凑齐了
最可怕的是,他们之后还是完美一家人。 今年恐怖片集体拉垮,显得这部特别好看。
今年第一部看哭了的电影,对应试教育的讽刺真的太深刻太有共鸣了!!!!!果然,电影的核心还得是故事!
“这是学校,成绩是唯一标准”
比较另类的恐怖电影 ,有隐喻欧洲移民问题和当今很多貌合神离的家庭!
哪个小女孩会拒绝一只这么丑又行径诡异的鸟呢?
恐怖不足,但隐喻挺好,也是一个现在比较流行的家庭问题。
