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.
这场披着性爱包裹的温柔疗愈，绝对是年度最省钱的好剧本，三个场景配合台词与男主可观的肉体，直接解决了一切！艾玛汤普森真的太敬业了！
判断一部影片对不对盘，开篇的分别拍摄：普且刻意，到出现第二次会面的安排：方向性彻底失控（摇头）。话疗片一旦在推进过程中有多次的不自然的卡顿尴尬，在我这里就算完了…… ps不可否认艾玛的表演尤其是在餐厅的那身打扮很好看 但这个本子真不行
开始看时觉得应该拍成一个系列，里奥·格兰德这个披着性工作者外皮的心理咨询师，过于从容有度，想看他接诊各种客人，而不是一个典型拘谨的白人大妈，这个女性形象多少有些刻意得惹人嫌，不过在最后，话锋又转向了里奥本人，让两个角色都成为了性压抑的受害者，最后加戏的在镜中欣赏自己并不年轻的肉体一段还是很不错，是挺轻松有趣的话剧电影。
第一次见到男的肉身菩萨，又唤起了和双性恋男谈恋爱的fantasy！（男主这种当然不可能是纯直男）
被电影中细腻的情感治愈，又一次在电影中回应性是自己的权力，性可以是情感、记忆、交流，还可以是对自己的疗愈，女性视角下，审视女性被剥夺的权力。
“Sexual fulfilment is a powerful thing.” And surely we should all have it.
女人的快乐应该从年轻的时候就开始，避免女主一生的悲剧。但互相治愈的结尾不是我想看的，有点套路了。
看前二十分钟: 不会就是单一场景吧... 最后十分钟: ok!! 最make sense和empowering的全裸镜头 以及男主也实在是太帅了
汤普森阿姨依旧演技炸裂；男主有着古希腊雕塑般的诱惑。阿姨说，sexual fulfillment是很powerful的，让人alive。幸好没有等到老了才明白，感恩一路走来的那些人。
虽然过于理想化，过于干净和体面……但是内核，关于女性的自我探索不受年龄的限制，这一点很重要。
片名拗口扣一星，要我说就叫《善解人衣》吧。
男主这个声音我多多少少是有点上头
“为人父母压力很大，这种压力从未离开过，你就像是拇指在淤青上一样。
Say hi to the adventure, feel no guilty to the pleasure. 爱听人唠嗑，所以更喜欢前四分之三，Emma Thompson的表演可以用精湛来形容。
非常非常棒，细节决定成败。
“你的身体很美，真希望你能‘看到’。”
我从来不觉得用身体赚钱是什么丢人的事情，但是如果我用身体赚钱又羞于启齿，男主还是挺可口的。。。
一把年纪是不是差点白活了
影片三星半 艾玛老师五星 接受淫欲 接受快乐 接受自己 能不能请科林费尔斯拍个男版
老人需要做爱，太监也需要做爱，做爱是一件美妙的事情，活塞运动只是一个环节。你要正视你的欲望，你还要发泄出你的欲望，如果总是压抑自己的欲望，那和一个变态有什么分别？
