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.
回避痛点
很多时候的确是认为父母是在控制你，可除了他们，还有谁是无私付出呢。
故事是好的。表达方式处理上再克制一些就好了。
套公式套得很准确，但我不喜欢这样的母亲形象。
第四个，女儿剪了短发，用自己的头发给妈妈做了一顶假发。
在看到女主闺女的工作的时候，我恍然发现之前在dy刷到过后面很戳泪点的片段，以为会观感大打折扣，后来看下去发现那段只不过是众多戳泪点的一小段。
亲情是人类永远的软肋，让我们轻易原谅一切。高分是给亲情的。电影罢了。
商业煽情大片，某些地方甚至煽情到我肉麻……
Maternal love defeats everything.
故事是好的。表达方式处理上再克制一些就好了。
留意了片中段与片尾母女的两个正面镜头：新的女性抱怨旧的女性，而旧的女性祝福新的女性。
看到好多自己和母亲相处的影子 女儿对母亲来说是除法是抵消 总是有吵不完的架 但也总有说不完的悄悄话 所有演员演技都挺在线的
哭的不行 根本没办法想象没有我妈的生活
有人说又是这一套，但是我就很吃这一套，从头哭到尾，只有又当女儿又当妈妈后才能加倍理解这份感动。
对所有妈妈说，你也要为自己而活
不过还是要强调一句，出轨男的演技实在太差了，比女儿还差。
但从创作的角度看，这部电影的创作有点投机取巧，剧本是直接改编韩国电影《世上最美的别离》，连名字也《关于我妈的一切》也碰瓷阿莫多瓦的《关于我母亲的一切》，亲情牌打得有点过于明显，不哭就是不孝儿女，给人很大的道德压迫感。
哭的不行 根本没办法想象没有我妈的生活
突出了女儿在婚外情中第三者的角色，聚焦于母女感情线上，淡化女性在婚姻家庭枷锁中的宿命悲剧感，加入了女性自我价值实现的浪漫传承，赋予了女性追求不平凡，不无知，不庸碌的生命的现代意义。🚺
