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.
Oh, yes, he's like a woman-friendly gay~
Wow，多么大胆、真诚而又温暖的电影！
对话写得蛮好，但是男主的角色设定不太合理，被忽视的原生家庭下真的能塑造出这样耐心且愿意聆听的性格吗……P. S这不就是提供性服务的心理咨询师吗……
艾玛！！有生之年看到艾玛的解放😍为阿姨和罗宾森的自我释放拍烂手掌！对自己诚实，接纳本来的自己，包括以前不能直视的欲望。
挺可爱的，我愿称之为“成人童话”。讨论其现实可操作性没有意义，重要的是我们鲜少（几乎不）能在公共领域里看到中老年女性的爱欲话题，在“慕青”时代里，艾玛老师贡献了老年女性最有魅力、最动人的高潮微笑。
整体过于（小成本）工整，话语表达显而易见，但因此总体上轻松适宜
个人觉得是个相当相当不错的谈话片。埃玛姨依旧无所畏惧！棒！
我们每个人活在世上一辈子，身上背负着多少道德、伦理、价值……等等，我们相互评判，又相互伤害；我们自我评判，又自我伤害……唯有放下，才能自由。
所有女性都应该重视自己 欣赏自己 掌握自己的身体与生命 thanks to you, Leo Grande
哈哈哈最近看的最开心的一部片，空气里都充满了快乐的气息。
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？
就像《震惊！六旬老太竟做了这件事》打开一看结果是她退休不忘发挥余热拯救失学少年…这说教姿势也太标准了

wowow，性喜剧外壳下的心理咨询。Leo是wounded healer，专注，共情，耐心，积极倾听，不评判客户的各式需求，疗程的重点是让来访关注此时此刻的自己，接纳感受，解决未竟的议题，在生活中获得更多活力和弹性。这再次告诉我们边界设置的重要性，避免过度卷入，当Leo被自己的往事吞没，他可以拥有一个督导来谈谈原生家庭和母子关系么？所幸他们拥有坚实的治疗同盟，可以谈论裂痕和痼疾，相互疗愈，共同成长。其他议题还有死亡焦虑，借由年轻的躯体重拾“世界刚刚打开，一切皆有可能”的新奇。
真的不愧是高端鸭终于理解为什么有人会花钱叫鸭了haha..以及女人高潮时真的会年轻啊真美，所有女生都应该看看这部，已经打算让我妈看看了
把“失足性工作者”想像的太美好了吧？心理治疗加服务？
片名拗口扣一星，要我说就叫《善解人衣》吧。
女主揭露男主真实身份信息的时候我血压就已经上来了 最奇葩的是男主居然还特么跟女主和解了 说好的原则底线呢？？？ 最后还搞一个啪戏来恶心观众我呕
后半段不太行，当然一个这么小切口的片子在故事落点上要寻求一点普世价值讨论也不是不能理解。艾玛汤普森棒。
真的很稳。Nancy的角色是对所有被性别角色所捆绑女性的完美折射，焦虑、欲望、失望和恐惧都在行为和言语中暴露无疑。平日被消费的对象反转成为消费的主体，将男性凝视自食其果；但却不仅仅如此，在凝视的基础上还增加了很多层次的阐释和叙述，对性工作者的迷思，不仅来自性别，更与种族身份密不可分。女性的欲望在一次次宛如心理咨询的谈话中被重提，被讨论，只是多了一些实践的层面，满足性幻想和需求。信息量太大，也感觉到导演想要一下次全部展现，有些细节感觉略微操之过急和刻意。4.8/5
