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.
{5分钟}刻意做那些让人觉得你很酷的事，来得到一些假风光，根本没什么意义，好好充实自己，比较实在
被预告骗来看以为有惊喜，结果老套的剧情还不如以前的美式青春电影
近年来不错的喜剧了，rebel演技撑起了整部电影，跳舞的时候会幻视成adele跳Britney。rebel瘦了之后又有气质又逗比，让电影一点都不尬了。（彩蛋是在暗示还有续集上大学么？）
欢快的青春片，不过女主没有演出17岁少女的状态，靠化妆是不行的
还挺有趣的喜剧 literally a coming of age story
下饭看完。超过35岁也能自信自由发光的人生真好
一直在想如果能再见到高中时候的她会是什么感受，当在影片中看到艾丽西亚·希尔维斯通的时候，大概就是此时的感觉吧。

满分！喜欢这种活力满满无坏人但又不过于理想化的电影
多一星给抛开俗剧情，但真的比我以为的要更inspiring。
最后的镜头居然给到爸爸，神奇
前面挺好的，舞会突然当选queen转折太生硬了。
女主瘦太多啦 这部感觉是她比较好的作品诶
女主真的瘦好多啊，开Uber的是独领风骚女主吧，快五十了还是甜妹啊！
整部电影男、女演员长相很老，
好久没有看到这么流畅的chickflick电影了。
蕾蓓尔·威尔森主演的喜剧貌似在豆瓣得分都是6.几，可是不知道为什么挺吃她的电影的，虽俗但趣。
比较典型的奈飞片子，亮点都在预告里...女二女儿突然就变好人了，虽然也是反抗她妈加上一些新时代年轻人思想吧，但是过渡还是很生硬
果然不出所料 哈哈哈 够无聊的
