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.
incredible! I mean the painting
什么乱七八糟的，画面很喜欢，但是里面的人物都是各种充斥着让人不喜欢的气息
其实，现在的我，也挺幸福的啊～
超好看的～
被空手道那段吸引来看的，土屋太凤的声音真好听啊。至于知性ai，希望现实中永远不会有。
看到如今的欧美青春校园片都开始沉溺于LGBT，我整个无语。难道这是怕不沾点儿政治过不了审？（笑
好甜，这样甜甜的恋爱真的可以不可求，是我得不到的恋爱了
唔，轻松的小甜片，不再存在身份认同问题，不再存在任何歧视和迷茫，让人感到心脏一紧的只有你真正的爱属于谁，姬片也有这样的标准喜剧青春校园作品了啊，完全的开放，真好。
没啥感觉，但是女主和她原先暗恋的那个妹子真的好好看
看海報就猜到了全部內容，其實這是青春裡經常會發生的很正常的事。羨慕女主的生活環境。
（哇哦，我都不知道原来二阶堂富美的英文说得那么好。。。二阶堂富美美国分美。（过于天真幼稚造作无瑕的小美好，本片适宜年龄：13～16岁。

可爱欢脱的姬情片，故事实在老套，开头AJ撞到女主时就已经猜到结局和情节走向了；不过还是希望类似平淡欢乐的片子能多来一点，治愈下被文艺be蕾丝片们伤透的心。
力求政治正確的青少年同志片，立意良善但故事說教連連，飾演女同志的女主角們各個都是直女臉，反而女主男閨蜜是直男卻姊妹味十足，選角詭異。女主無論對姊或妹都無CP火花，雖然一直營造浪漫氛圍但只覺得越看越尷尬...
抛开CP而言，剧里的一些反常规设定也很有意思。主席大人和第一先生，少见的异性恋是允许在学校里亲热的吗？简直是女权姬仔的乌托邦了。小时候的佩奇和AJ好可爱啊！AJ是什么酷酷女孩儿！穿搭好爱！
很青春很校园，在家里关了一个多月看到这样青春洋溢的快乐校园电影有种说不出的感觉
青春片，满满都是少女感。很多少女心事放到现在的年龄来看，会觉得离自己好远。就像Paige妈妈说的，我曾是Paige，曾是AJ， 曾是Gabriela，被人伤害也伤害别人。青春感觉更能和Crush联系起来。真好啊
小打小闹青春电影，演员真的都很嫩。Rowan在雪国列车第三季的造型放这个学校肯定收获一大批迷妹
蛮轻松的校园喜剧 不过我还是更喜欢真心半解
诗音对悟美幸福的执着、遇到问题就唱歌的原因太暖心了！而且唱的几首歌都挺好听的，歌词也很有意义。
