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.
这个跟《陈情令之生魂》有的一比。就故事内容来说想打一星的（无关演员），但是想到工作人员们的付出。只能说电影的门槛太低了
老一套类型模式自己照搬自己，老调重弹的新瓶子装旧酒式灾难鬼片。
被拍醒，然后知道了拱墅区被提级管控。想着世界末日是应该囤菜还是等着毁灭。最终在末日般的时刻走入末日般的电影院，看到了末日场景。本来以为只是普普通通的灾难片，却发现很久都没在电影院里看过太空片了。走出电影院觉得应该和人分享，“地球是平的，月球是空的。”导演实在太喜欢绿我者死的戏码了。
从网剧衍生出网络大电影，印象中上次这种操作的还是盗墓笔记。《赘婿之吉兴高照》脱胎自网剧，但其根本内核还是《赘婿》这本书，哪怕已经改编了不少。苏文兴这个角色的喜剧感虽说很强，但要支撑起一部电影的体量还是差了些，所以编剧加上了一条感情线，让这部电影的故事推进恰到好处。这部电影不过是《赘婿2》的先锋作，也不能过于要求这部电影的质量了。
比目前5.3分还是要好不少，至少设定上想象力丰富，有点朝星际穿越靠近的意思。但是想讲的设定跟几个家庭之间的故事节奏没有把握好。故事线太多了。
年度大型融梗玄幻爆笑災難喜劇，災難主要體現在智商災難，看在能讓我笑那麼久的份上加半星吧，一星半
一星给片头曲“我祈求非洲大雨倾盆～”
罗兰·艾默里奇电影的特效是和毁灭地球的的态度是不会让我们失望的，最后也还是靠着小人物的挺身而出，拯救了世界。。。 本片依旧多了很多中国的元素。
好看还是好看的，就是选在了七夕这个对于我来说不太友善的日子里。
作为灾难片，一点临场感都没有，也就谈不上紧张刺激。作为科幻片，一直在为那个鬼扯的设定做解释，越解释越可笑，更可笑的是看结尾他们好像还有拍续集的打算的……
毋庸置疑，大烂片。反思每个大牛片和大烂片之间，究竟差了什么，一个是行云流水的铺陈，架空的台词，没有必要的情节，而另一个每个空镜都有含义。
我觉得有点小浮夸，不过喜欢这个设定，其实设定挺好的，地球线也挺有真实感觉的。
《外星人就在月球背面》登上银幕，这个理论其实挺不错的。虽然老套吧，剧情场景也很好看。
不挑剔的话，是部挺好看的爆米花灾难科幻片，设定挺有新意，剧情也挺丰富！
大框架比较简单，只能打个三星。但小细节上做得还可以。
用脚写的剧本都能比这强，强行煽情注水，套路化工具人角色，毫无末世气质，逻辑随时随地硬伤，阴谋论又老又俗，看似特效大片其实棚拍痕迹严重，场景规模小气得要死。不过也算在意料之中，不是陪朋友我本身也不会来看这部片，只能说电影的社交意义远压过了本体质量。
整体来说~还不错~延续了网剧的风格~好多人物能够登场亮相，也是挺赞的了
如果你是ai你会去地球吃自助餐还是在月球撞几十年的墙？
前半段都挺好，到了月球之后感觉编剧突然说我编不下去了，直接机械降神，星球大战串台过来了？？啥学历没有的胖子比一群NASA大神懂得还多？这设定也太扯了？另外于文文这个角色真的安排的太尬了，为啥不把办公室里面坐到最后的那两个角色其中一个安排给她啊？
人文色彩相较于导演其他的灾难片显得极弱，剧情相比较之下更加拉胯，特效还可以，但是相较于2012好像也没惊艳多少，最后想搞个科幻阴谋论，硬生生给整得挺玄幻的了（桑尼这演员不知道谁，就这部演的甚至比我都不知道的华人女演员还要差，属实拉中拉）
