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.
3.5/5 我戳本色演出吗？真的是很小清新了。
戳爷的青春疼痛文学🈶！！！关于：夏天+海滩+亲吻+离别 的标配～ 电影的插曲 真的做到了 每一首 都太太太太好听了！能占两星的程度！！！
佛罗里达真就是马卡龙色最好的代表啊！朋友不用太多，一个就足够。
隐隐约约露出了一些等待期的恐惧，希望大家都能在检测完之后感谢上天不杀之恩「不是感染之后活不下去的意思」
拍成剧集应该会很好看 感觉配角有很多故事可以深入讲讲 特别是Esther的家庭背景/期待戳演员未来更多佳作！（片尾旧照大集合完全看不出这么多年的变化 冻龄少年戳老师👌🏻
非常xx正确的属于戳爷、少数群体、少年、和未来的大型MV
及格同影吧，但青春题材的看过太多啦，确实把戳拍的很美好

比较清新的青春伤痛文学，女友那条线太刻意了很减分。
2.尝尝互助小组的donut到底有多好吃。
青春的躁动混杂着感染的焦虑，令三个月的夏日无比漫长，经历了恐惧的洗礼，才懂得友情、爱情与亲情的珍贵，真正的恐惧不是疾病或者痛苦本身，而是痛苦时孤生一人，正因为有彼此陪伴才能让人敢于直面恐惧。本片或许可以叫《陪戳爷度过漫长夏日》，Troye Sivan真的太适合这个婊婊的毒舌甜心。
也没有像想象的那么差
可爱 感性 喜欢音乐和能说出1962年后所有奥斯卡最佳女主的男人 这不就是戳爷本戳 还有你床头那盏lava lamp 我就当你在致敬金刚狼了是不是是不是一定是的
又是一个夏天。简单小清新，和《佛罗里达乐园》一样让我对佛罗里达有了马卡龙滤镜；配乐不错，喜欢那个轻快鼓点插曲，space oddity出来惊喜到。troye演技可以的，很适合上镜！（可以说几乎是啃的生肉）
戳爺和這個角色的適配度還蠻高的，比我想象中的要更出色，其實得艾最難克服的是自己這關，希望早日艾滋能夠得到根治吧
蛮好看的诶 自然的感觉 虽然结尾有点点遗憾哈哈不过这也是真实生活的感觉吧！
只要還有一個人愛著你，你就是被愛的就是幸福的
挺有意思的故事片。戳爷真好看。可惜百合CP没有太多多互动。
感觉把戳爷都拍回春了（。
其实挺无聊的。除了Troye，其他演员就不能找好看点的吗？片尾那些图，放电影的花絮图不好吗？把陈年旧图都拿出来了。最后也没说得没得嘛，我还以为我一直被剧透得了。风景好像85年盛夏
