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.
拍的挺不错的，人物性格挺鲜明，武打动作也利索
4.5分，电影本身4星，多0.5星给这个题材。看到烧鸦片那里真的泪目，既悲愤又痛心，真的要铭记历史，吸取教训。剧情紧凑流畅不拖沓，各种反转也很自然，没有故弄玄虚，看得很畅快。谢苗的演技真的大有进步了，打戏一如既往的精彩。杜玉明和姚橹两个老戏骨也给影片增添了不少亮点。看得出导演编剧演员都很认真在对待这部影片。真的希望更多的导演和演员愿意拍这样主题的影片，张哲导演的《血战虎门》和《辛弃疾1162》都不错的。
打斗激烈，但剧情有几处 太假 。历史还原的不错 真实。演员演技也都在线。
这样的电影只有网络电影可以审查通过，这是中国电影的悲剧
对电信诈骗的全景展现能够让观众看懂，并且理解。这一点做的非常好。至于很多YY的设计不必多言。
虽然剧情老套，但是演员的表演可圈可点，动作设计确实够很辣。谢苗也该火一把了
不错啊，制作精良，谢苗最近片子很多，而且都还可圈可点，不是烂片，未来可期！
对电信诈骗的全景展现能够让观众看懂，并且理解。这一点做的非常好。至于很多YY的设计不必多言。
反诈宣传片也拍得挺流畅的，没觉出来哪里又乳了，字幕组每次费劲扒拉还要解释就挺没劲的，兹山鱼谱也是这样
本来片名是虎门销烟 后来改成血战虎门 因为这个片子 林则徐的戏份很少 都是谢苗的打戏 没啥看点
又会有新的问题
主演: 谢苗 / 姚橹 / 杜玉明 / 张梓杉 / 曲羿成 / 张皓森 / 刘峰超 / 南思恺 / 金柯 / 佟俊
:我是个粗人，不太会讲话，只是觉得，与有荣焉。
作为网大，应该算及格吧，演员明星还是有一些，林则徐的那位演员虽然不熟，但是还是挺沉稳，只是形象上稍微胖了点！谢苗也还不错，他这个年龄段能打的人也不多了，杜玉明老演员了，老把他和季春华搞混。跟谢苗演对手戏的那个演员不是很熟悉，三番五次，总是每次死不了，连船上火烧爆炸都没弄死，有点太夸张了
给一星的都是战狼看多了吧 地点设置在中国真的太正常了 作为一个吉林延边人 我可以很郑重的告诉你们 东北地区尤其是吉林 搞韩国电信诈骗的真的多到让你难以想象 PS：本人身边就有很多从事这行的 很多！
你们韩国高空抛物不犯罪是吧，还往下扔空调。
谢苗是被主流电影圈遗忘的遗珠，一身正气、动作干脆、演技突出，在现今老辈动作演员逐渐老去，看不到后继者的时候，希望他能被资本重视，硬汉演员太少， 花拳绣腿转圈圈的娘炮演员有太多了，唉。
“你害怕了！你害怕回忆从前。你害怕。你在意的人 在你面前死去。”
这部电影真应该国家正式引进，购买版权在所有的电视台大面积播映，这绝对比公益广告的宣传效果好太多了，绝对能大面积提升国民的反电诈意识的。
谢苗直接担纲还是过于年轻，缺少戏骨的驾轻就熟，文戏用力过度。林大人的演员是谁选的？一脸贪污相，一身反派戏。
