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.
提摩西夏拉梅风评被害。
主要本片能唤起很多人曾经的那份热爱，我就找到大学时代的感觉，每天听着各种类型的金属音乐，所有人都受不了，但是我却乐在其中，放肆发泄。片中提到的乐队，闪过的海报，撩动我兴奋神经的旋律，直接让我兴奋到失眠。
没有贝斯手就招大提琴手，“Skullfxxker”变成“Skullflower”hhh，虽然不是很了解重金属，但是确实是很可爱的青春片！
没想到大提琴也可以玩重金属！大提琴手用电子大提琴出场的时候帅炸了！片中的大提琴曲目是巴赫大提琴无伴奏组曲的 suite 1, 还是很经典的。为了“过审”，乐队名字从 skullfucker 换成 skullflower 也是很有创意了。
替真正的好友出气、校园怪咖抱团、对性别歧视说不、不背叛女友哪怕性感大妞主动、最低谷时刻都抵抗住毒品、解救好友、并肩作战，这么俗套甚至有点幼稚的剧情下还能输出如此浓烈的正向三观，这才是真正的青春和友谊！咱是高中啥也不让搞是吧， 咱怎么就拍不出这么正的校园片呢。
from skullfucker to skullflower is just like from hate to love.
本来要闹事的人无意触发了下面的人群撞来撞去成了梗😂
为什么所有奈飞的creep们都有sex我却没有🚬
一直喜欢看音乐类的喜剧，跟风永远跟风，我们一直是我们
What's the cost of freedom
黑人有自己治理的能力，“自不量力”的白人总是捣乱
3.5，中规中矩，可惜我无法跟着剧情嗨起来。三个主演挺灵的，我以为Emily最终会练起贝斯没想到还是以大提琴手身份入驻，挺好；Hunter剃掉半边头发竟然比之前的要好看许多；有一种体贴是你说你没吃药，对面的人却回答他也没吃胃药；谈到gay话题镜头一扫墙上的海报和泳池里的幻想，我看乐了。
哈哈，看到一个评论说这是美版闪光少女，好形象。主角们没有乱糟糟的不良嗜好，只想搞音乐+谈个恋爱，青春喜剧，很棒。
自由的代价，黑人主演那种绝望中硬撑中狠厉，太让我印象深刻了。南非，如果有机会想去看看。
看完才知道是真实事件改编，南非第一位黑人总统曼德拉上位前搞得黑人运动，被捕，手下的小弟们还在积极搞着“恐怖袭击”以求黑人被公平对待。在一次秘密行动被同伙泄露，失败逃亡的路上，阴差阳错的躲到了银行并劫持了人质。有一些小伏笔，司法部长女儿和黑人血统却装白人的女士，都深刻解释了他们为什么这么做，很深刻。
Metal DNA动了~哈哈哈哈哈热血笨蛋真的太可爱惹！！！
真实事件的升华版，种族歧视，压迫与反压迫，自由代表了尊严，也代表一切。剧情很煽情，拍摄的很有年代感。
中二摇滚少年的热血青春（我艹超酷的好吗！）
Fuck we rip it! A teen film with all those cliché, but it still hit me. 长发Hunter真的美啊！
前面节奏有点慢，本来以为会是俗套的剧情，但是却拍出了味道。金属梗可以更多一些哈哈哈啊
