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.
2022-01-07 五星啊。Hilda真的是可爱聪明勇敢坚持爱与希望的美好小孩子典范了。治愈系美漫传递出来的peace&love真的美好、太适合给小孩子看了。期待第三季！
里面的女性角色真的很勇敢很强大!!!(巨魔设定有那么一点点跟巨人相似不过巨魔本性是温和的。
跟正剧比有点小下滑，但还是换的了一个惬意的下午
She is guarding me all the time. Sometimes she hurts me a lot. But, she also entirely secures me. Mommy.
剧情有缺憾（可能是我看不够！）。以后看到石头我可能会自动想成troll！love&peace！
看个动画长片发现了一个宝藏动画剧集 作者一直在处理母女/子关系 或许就是个 孕育人与子孙后代关系的母题 人物很可爱 大人看也能受到启发
进击的…山怪，山丘之王和他哥的做法都没错，一个主张进攻，一个默守老母的牺牲，人类要是早点考虑城市搬迁，何必和山怪斗这么多年。
我没有看过前两季，但是个人感觉不影响观感，甚至有解谜的快感。从开头的山洞隐喻入手再到后面进击的巨人即视感，内含非常丰富的动画电影啊！这真的是2021年的电影吗？为什么我觉得放在20220224也很合适啊！本是同根生相煎何太急

不论是剧集还是这部电影，能看到希尔达如此高质量的动画，作为观众我都感到万分的荣幸，感谢动画主创与充满童真的原著作者。
整个风格和叙事还是偏低幼，母爱与和谐，对于小朋友来说还是非常合适的。
每个物种都有好有坏
拥有绝对力量但还心怀天下的巨魔，我也想成为，嘻嘻
反派很可怜，最后劝架原本是高潮却并没有带来什么惊喜
原来这部是剧场版哦～还好啦没那么影响观感～蛮喜欢！
剧情还是非常不错的，内容丰富好看，值得一刷。
延续动画的画风，还是挺可爱的，而且对话比较简单，可以练英语
很治愈的一部电影，当音乐响起，所有山怪身上出现花花草草的时候，不自觉留下眼泪，这种感觉真好。
主旨为母爱，挺适合全家人聚在一起看看的，尽管还没看希尔达这部剧，但是依然不影响其温馨爆表。
