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.
如果是网大的话，我觉得还是过关的。甚至比我预期的要好，故事能衔接上，人都是喜剧熟脸，挺好的。只是中间那些明星助阵花絮吧，跟故事几乎毫无关系，显得有点突兀。
人性是复杂的，用一个理念去往里面套用，去刻意提出一个理念，才是最尬的。
【D】不愧是国产学院派的作品，低成本带来的低劣制作真是让人难以忍受。“主旋律美学风格探索”实质便是后期狂降饱和度，让色彩以劣质山水画的模样去提升他们自以为的格调（是我这辈子最厌恶丁达尔效应的86分钟）。而当摄影机承载着更多的视点时，调度就只剩一团乱麻，枪声与死亡是如此随便，毫无情绪起伏的可能。而题材上的创新，也只是刨去角色的存在，让对不上口型的后期配音与莫名其妙的超现实段落彻底毁灭观众代入的可能，也无任何深度可言，反倒很适合给主创们做自我感动式的阅读理解题。
二手月季为啥没在葬礼上唱歌 说好的死亡摇滚哪去了。
中规中矩，选择的切入点不错。故事讲的清楚自洽，笑点也有。问题是没有亮点，突出点。
一部合格的网大，笑点也挺受用，没有隔靴搔痒的感觉，小故事大道理
没睡着已经很努力了
中国学院派是吧，拙劣的斯坦尼康用的我想吐，粗糙的后期配音混音效果每次角色开口我都出戏。就连本片最大噱头诗意黑白摄影都无法实现从头到尾的风格统一。最“煽情”的报名字段落其实是最灾难的，完全打破了导演在之前想要达到的压抑氛围，几个主创引以为傲的超现实段落也根本是硬塞入剧情里。也别碰瓷什么《侠女》《楢山节考》《伊万的童年》了，连大师的脚都没摸到就号称“挑战国内观众观影门槛”了啊，映后也是根本美院传院学术圈互吹，对国美祛媚倒是看完本片最大收获了。
低俗油滑的方言、低劣愚横的行事展现，除了孙越和二手玫瑰，都让人恶心透顶
与其说《云霄之上》是一部战争诗意电影，毋宁说它是关于地质学的影像。在此我们或许能想象一种地质诗学，当人物行走在岩石、山脉、地层、云雾和洞穴与田野中，来自地质与地层内部的强度与延波悄然渗入生命内部。这其中既涵盖无机物（地层与岩石），亦包含着有机物（蛇、飞鸟与人类），身体与岩石的相遇构成了着自然-历史的共振。可惜的是，就在这样一种无限广延的地质场域中，导演对于人物的拍摄却显现出一种典型的剧场化倾向，生硬的斯坦尼康与长镜头看似在塑造诗意氛围，但实际上却阻隔了人类-地质的联通互动，诸多人物对话的戏份生硬得像样板戏。这归根结底源自于导演对蒙太奇的粗暴摒弃，诗意从来不是长镜头的附属产品，这样一种狭隘的诗意观导致影片丧失了一种超验与超然的感知，蒙太奇并非诗意效果的绝缘体，相反，它是无尽的连接、交互与共振。
就这点钱啊，那只能唱一宿，打四星！
伴随俄语片尾曲，浅谈一下。
Emmmmm 好笑的部分某音都节选完了……
刀爷演技很好👍🏻怎么说呢 预告片就是全部搞笑的地方
怎么说呢……用汤姆和杰瑞的方式写这帮放出来的人，我老了，我无法理解
故事还行，就是前面好像一直平铺直叙的，让人总想出戏，不知道为什么
完成度挺好，细节也不错，复原了澡堂文化，二手月季也唱了歌
没花钱看的，全家看一乐，没什么可mean 的，我觉得挺好
东北人面子大过孩子？没钱还把丧礼整这么豪华竟然不会被亲戚朋友骂？？？不会被其他老百姓戳脊梁骨？？？
感觉挺真诚的，没有那些恶俗和屎尿屁的情节，就是从头到尾没讲刘平安把他爸怎么了，中间致敬彩蛋太多了，不过整体不流畅，比如依依的病，两个人学英语，倒刀爷和他爸之间，赵大明白欠钱这些片段都感觉有点冗长
