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.
直到看完出字幕才知道电影想表达个啥，反类型，对先入为主的人不太友好，但整个表达还是流于流水账，表面叙事，台词叙事
人真的照顾身边每一个人情绪但是却克制自己情绪地去生活吗？
为什么他身边的人能忍受他的专横呢，可能是因为他对自己比对别人专横的多，所以能赢得别人的尊重
“他在贫民区时定下的计划几乎完全实现”
确实不温不火，不功不过，演得确实可以，但原本可以挖掘的更深入，但为了目前大环境，拍的过于主流过于俗套，
影院上映中，感兴趣的小伙伴抓紧哦。
“不然她们只能无家可归”
某个人在成长过程中总被看轻，他想要改变的强烈意志在外人眼里，可能就是偏执和疯狂。希望你疯狂。
片尾曲加半颗星星 局长powerful的嗓音和影片实在是相得益彰ps.她们好像真得有在打网球
如果威尔史密斯还在角色中没有走出来那么可以原谅他的一掴。
（对我来说所有奥提中这个排倒数第二
2.25 @ iv很喜欢传记类电影 但说实话不太喜欢这部 说的好听点拍的克制 不好听点就是寡淡 很流水账 然后虽然可能有还原人物但是对于这个richard是真的喜欢不起来 把原生家庭的阴影再重新带到了下一代身上 然后美其名曰为了你好的名义去控制女儿的人生 替她做决策 想要拍出父亲在两个女儿成长成功路上的重要性但没看出来 又想拍女儿凭借自己一步步走到后面的位置也没看出导演花太多功夫在她们的人物塑造上 导致整体没看出什么名堂来
老爸确实是很顽固，与他共事真的要很耐得住性子😂…这可能也是大小V能成为历史上伟大运动员不可或缺的一部分
就记住了爸爸的那个open stance，然后花了一节课和教练讨论问什么不能打开放式！
确实有点老套，但自己还是对这种运动题材有天生好感。结尾的反高潮值得学习。
国王，有打造大美江山的能力，也有太不温善的专制和独裁。传记电影的价值远远不在人物本身，这部片子做到了。不能说是家庭教育教科书，至少要学习他对尊严、理想的解构，以及运筹帷幄的能力。
非裔美国人版虎爹战歌，又一部颁奖季命题电视电影。肉眼可见编剧后期加入的talking point导致影片意识形态上产生了精神分裂。而作为讲述女网GOAT诞生史的片，居然过分强调成功学到毫无任何对运动本身的热爱与享受的展现的地步，简直令人咂舌

看得出Will Smith为了今生能拿到奥斯卡奖真是可以不惜任何代价，可惜越是急功近利越是矫情做作。PS这项目预算居然高达五千万USD，看来挂名联合出品人的大小威本人也从中捞到了不少！
标题是去纽约配乐歌词的激动，也是小男主录音中面对生活需要的韧性和坚持。有些文德斯的感觉，最后一句台词倒是说明白这部电影了，就是帮你记起孩童时期你看待世界的视角，回忆起那些你想被理解的渴求。这部电影拍给所有人过去孩时的自己。
