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.
这个女主还真有那么点紫霞味儿，但男主就真的想一棒子打死他，尤其是猴子的扮相，太欠了
吴昊宸，年纪轻轻就欠钱欠人情了吗？不要拍这种消耗自己。
烂就是烂，拿达叔当挡箭牌也没办法改变这一点，仅有的一点点感动，源自于对于青春、达叔和港片的怀念。
最大的亮点是紫霞，憨态可掬，不像朱茵版那么灵动，但也非常可爱。
九孔那台湾腔太出戏了。黄轩都来演网大了，这不给五星？这特效也可以啊，比流量烂片好看太多了，情怀满分。
把经典翻拍来翻拍去一点创新都没有，反倒是看乏了。
大话西游同人纯爱篇。几个主演演技还不错，不算毁经典。
演技尴尬，剧情老套，连摄像都感觉不如抖音短视频。蹭了大IP，就觉得能捞钱吗？
确实还行，起码可以三星。冲着达叔加一颗星。紫霞很可爱，各种致敬细节。起码有一些地方确实感动到我了。五星！
找个靠谱的编剧比找大牌导演，演员靠谱多了，当然男主找的更合适点更好，女主非常惊喜
关键是这个紫霞笑起来真挺好看的，让人能够看得进去哈哈哈哈！！
作为一部小成本网剧还是很不错滴，有诚意，给五星拉拉分，不知道这是不是吴孟达最后一部遗作，如果是的话，这部剧的品质还是配得上给达叔的演艺生涯画上句号的
剧情特效有不足之处，但整体上完成度还可以，不要跟上世纪的前作比，没有可比性，但比那个大话西游3强太多了
槽点:达叔戏份不多；紫霞外貌合格但演技稚嫩；九孔的台普太出戏；特效一般；boss战直接化身上单孙悟空单挑石头人。
能有自圆其说的改编，挺好的，看着就像星爷版的前传。男主是戏剧新生活的吴昊宸，女主也很养眼。
额，达叔的最后一部作品，但拍得确实是很差，玷污了达叔的谢幕之作了。。。两颗心一颗给达叔，另一颗给还挺漂亮的女主。。。其他真没什么了
有星爷的标杆在，对比还是有差距，但值得从头看到尾，片尾曲雷娜的《祈缘》好听，可惜音乐平台找不到。
虽然网大，但是男女主表现很舒服，马瑞的紫霞很自然，就是网大妖怪的特效真的恶心（几个女演的基本素养属实高隔壁王晶新倚天屠龙那几个女郎）怪物特效咱不吐槽，但是声音你不能换个素材包嘛？（只有恐龙吼？）
槽点:达叔戏份不多；紫霞外貌合格但演技稚嫩；九孔的台普太出戏；特效一般；boss战直接化身上单孙悟空单挑石头人。
合格且标准流水生产的网络商品（IP、特效、爱情、吴孟达遗作、煽情、场面戏、激情戏）。但是电影不应当是快消品，这个IP之所以火到今天，能为周边和这类电影提供生命不是因为它快消。
