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.
挺一般的，混入诈骗组织像小孩过家家一样，没有一点严谨的风格————无语
精致版的香港武打片，打完了官兵就来打扫战场了
中国也拍过 巨额来电 陈学冬桂纶镁张孝全演的 比韩版好 教育意义更深刻 这部剧里那句雾霾恶心到我了
还可以啊。谢苗小时候挺正派的长相，现在似乎更适合这种亦正亦邪的角色。。。

PS：棒子呀，西安就西安，说那是沈阳蒙谁呢。还有，真是一群没见过世面的样子，也就他们自个信自己个出了国门别人都得听他们的。
单纯看看动作戏就好了，这种娱乐国精的套路被方世玉叶问之类的演烂了
这片子不打五星？虽然有些瑕疵，比如在中国的部分场景问题，但这片的现实意义远比流浪，狼等要深远。信息怎么会泄露的，为什么那么陌生电话找你给你贷款给你各种福利？你的个人信息被卖了一次又一次！最后那位总结的很好，陌生电话提钱的，不要相信。希望大家都能看一看。
故事线简单进行的太快 约汉子的打斗戏给五星
3.5吧，情节还行，不过一人独斗电信帮有点扯
主角一副臭脸从头到尾，确实跟台词说的一样“你就不能笑笑吗 ，**”。
开篇节奏不错，对被骗的受害者能产生点共情，后面情节就脱线了。
在你们的国土上，无一人吸食鸦片，为何允许在我朝倒卖。
韩国人行道红灯人还站着不走，是不是车都直接撞上去的，这个车祸有点太敷衍了吧
如果现实中也有这般结局就好了
之前一直没怎么关注过谢苗，直到看完《目中无人》后惊叹于他的打戏，所以就马不停蹄地把本片也给刷了，结果，又被香到了..首先这个切入点就很聪明，我们都知道林则徐虎门销烟，可我们并不知道这一历史事件背后有多少血泪。本片以动作片为引，挖出来的实则是极为深邃的东西。个人感觉很好，四星奉上，反正不管怎么说都不可能是这个搞笑的6.2分。
1839年虎门销烟，1842年第一次鸦片战争结束，香港被割让，中国沦为半殖民地半封建。很难想象南京条约签订时，那些虎门销烟的英雄内心的窝囊和委屈。但至少现在这片土地上生活的人，能过没有鸦片的日子。“整个天都是黑的，就凭你们几个能点亮么”，能亮，哪怕花了200年，也点亮了。
真没想到，这部片子还不错，谢苗演的很好。这个角色很适合他。值得一看。
拍的还行吧，这不算抹黑吧，电信诈骗中日韩都属于参与人群众多，相互串连跨国诈骗也多，而且这是一部韩国片，你能想像一下，我们拍什么湄公河行动的时候，如果缅老泰三个国家警察出境多，又帅又猛的在镜头前晃荡吗？而且人民币出境显著，我还想加分呢
