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.
7分。可惜已经很长时间不关注NBA了,不然应该更好看。NBA球探在野球场遇到一个篮球天才,带回球队之后,却因为被挑衅后表现不好被球队高层抛弃。球探孤注一掷,自己想办法给球员铺路,最终入选NBA球队。没有一波三折,遇到的问题解决起来也很快,但就是很热血很好看。一个千里马与伯乐的故事。最好看的部分之一是,电影里有很多退役和现役NBA球星的客串,多到像下饺子一样,全片都是球星彩蛋。
遇见好苗子
郑钦文说的电影就是这个吧,我居然都没看出来是亚当桑德勒,还以为真是哪个教练什么的,垃圾话虽然很侮辱但是真有那味了。
亮点太多 球迷专享 谁说50岁只有湿疹和疲倦 只要愿意 依旧可以大风车扣篮 别加胯下就行
对喜欢NBA的球迷来说,这么多人串场简直就是一个无双游戏!粉丝认脸盛宴!
励志运动题材不会太难看,但是也确实不太容易拍出新意了。
中规中矩热血励志片 目的达到 看得我热血沸腾
虽然挺俗套的,但也挺受用的。毕竟这年头,需要看励志片吸取一点纯粹的正能量了。
这就是啥都有的大俗套体育片,还要啥,这就是自行车。
亚当桑德勒本人比这部电影更励志,一把岁数了寻求转型突破,原钻没得奖就继续拍球探,可谓是中年人的明灯了……可惜这部片预计依然得不了奖,倒是看着还挺流畅,但是太工整了,四平八稳的套路,唯一的亮点是片尾师徒赛场见
完整展示普通篮球爱好者和NBA球员之间的鸿沟
很美好的又很套路的励志故事,爱德华兹演坏人可以啊
3星半,故事老套,但是体育精神值的一看。对于NBA的球迷而言,这就是宝藏电影吧!
因为真的热爱这个运动,这个联盟,所以看到熟悉的球员们,教练们真的很亲切。
虽然剧情很老套 但是那么多球星客串 对于喜欢篮球的人已经是加分项了 整个故事完整也比较燃 很不错的休闲作品
运动题材的电影,要拍砸可真的挺难的。本片由始至终都很套路,但就是好看呀,哪怕我妈这样对篮球几乎一无所知的人,都看得津津有味。
天才首先也得是个努力的笨蛋。/亚当·桑德勒这么有诚意,这难道不比《King Richard》更真实励志嘛……
只能说亚当桑德勒作为球迷角度来拍的电影,不能套用到实际NBA中,不过作为电影,励志的角度来说拍的不错
不看篮球,那些客串的一个也不认识,趣味性少好多,然后故事就变成普通励志片了😂
喜欢nba的应该会喜欢里面大量球星的客串,华子的演技很天然,不错
