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.
好像在度过人生中最璀璨的日子的时候自己总是不自知的，甚至认为那是辛苦的、窘迫的。我们努力逃离的地方，要靠后来的日子不断去追忆。电影拍得远远不及北野武的人生精彩，而那个叫深见的家伙才是真正的浅草小子吧，这个人物算是做成了。
影帝先天条件注定难以还原北野大爷接地气的人格魅力，某些段落不排除为了抓马效果作了美化。但就凭对舞台喜剧还保留基本的尊重，以及与循序渐进的追梦过程相映衬的深入细节的现实刻画，这片子就值得一看
喜剧演员时刻都不要忘了诙谐，任何一个时刻，任何地点，在自身的生活中。可以看出北野武有多重视那个时期周围的人对他造成的影响，很尊敬他的老师。给三星是因为这个剧本吧，这个导演是做不来的，才能这个东西，真难啊。
三星半。原因是，我以为会拍出怎样的北野武，结果看到励志师徒情，本来是准备好的五星呢，但是很感人，实话。只是据我了解的小老头，可是比这个精彩万倍，光是和媳妇那点儿事儿就可以拍得无尿点了。期待多年之后，有人拍出真正的北野武。
浅草小子，与其说是北野武，更是他的师傅浅草的深见。这部电影与其说是讲北野武的故事，不如说是讲深见千三郎。师徒情很感动啊！连最后的告别也要讲笑话，笑着流泪……北野武，是个重情义的人！
影帝发挥出色！师父表演精彩但是！演员太像吴政世了让我看得出戏😰师母竟然是铃木保奈美！😧
想起郭德纲说他刚起步说相声的时候，台下几乎没有人，有的观众要去厕所，就要等观众回来，好心酸。
只是无意之中随便看一下的电影，没想到像抽中头彩，毫不客气地说，这是今年截至目前看过的最好看的电影，充满欢笑，也充满眼泪。它让我了解了北野武、了解日本漫才、了解戛纳影帝柳乐优弥炸裂的演技，了解许多许多……
“不要讨好观众，你要告诉观众什么才是好笑的。”所以才想当天才啊，天才身边的人都很温柔。
片子算不上多好，节奏略跳脱，很多情节的目的性都很明确，属于煽了但没用力煽。
两位演员演的真好，所以师徒情也足够真切让人泪目，片中几处悬崖勒马的编排也非常克制而温柔，可惜最后一镜到底廉价煽情到底还是让人难为情了。
后面我才发现，那个年老的北野武是假扮的。而娓娓道来的师父的关爱也是符合逻辑和人物的
各过好各的人生。厉害又倔强的师傅，唱歌的千春。北野武演的太帅了吧啊
有一些心理準備可能不會太好之下看，覺得不錯，其實沒有講太多北野武，主角原來是他的師傅，而大泉洋真的演得很不錯，那些意在言外與身為喜劇演員的自信與哀愁都被他演得淺白而到位（是好的），柳樂優彌有點太用力去模仿，但跟大泉洋對戲時都不錯，門脇麥整個認不出來，覺得跳舞有點不到位，然後看到鈴木保奈美很開心。
今年看的網飛原創日本電影，表現真的都很不錯，本片是北野武版火花+喜劇開場，師徒情動人，講北野武開始拍電影前，在漫才圈打滾的日子。對北野武的認識，就是從凶暴的男人開始，對在這之前的他一無所知，所以還滿訝異平常都面癱嚴肅到爆的他，竟然是喜劇出身，而且還是漫才舞台表演，果然影帝也要由影帝來詮釋，才有說服力。柳樂優彌的表演很棒，成功抓住北野武的神韻與講話方式，和大泉洋的師徒情意外地動人，本來以為是師徒鬧不合拆夥的電影，結果北野武其實比我想的還忠心耿耿，對師父的愛是每年都固定去上香，師徒情真的有感動到我，透過漫才演繹自身的悲哀，笑著笑著就想哭了，師父好落魄，但是看著徒弟成功好驕傲。結尾致敬鐵達尼號結尾，同樣的佈景用魔幻寫實的方式一鏡到底重現，北野武成名前待的法蘭西座，每個角落都充滿著他年輕時的回憶。
哪儿是北野武和阿清，这组合分明是山田孝之和刁亦男；想学踢踏舞
所以这是北野武的传记片，大概也可叫作《我的黄金年代》、《浅草的吾师》。
踢踏舞，高跟鞋的梗，“如果打车钱还有剩的话，记得拿来还给我”，永远的师徒，永远的浅草法兰西座。
人生不就是这样，握着年少的梦话，到头来大梦一场，“我还是会选择这滚烫的人生”
来自浅草的深见和阿武
