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.
这一部应该走搞笑路线的，魔女2号，鬼佬和Chief二人组都有这个潜质，可惜后面杀疯了
比第一部野心更大，直接整出个山寨X战警了，通过多线叙事加入了更多超能力者，打斗设计也玩的更加放飞自我，往超英大场面一去不返，暴力程度与魔女凶残指数比前作更上一层楼，不过多线叙事写的实在太差，要熬过冗长的文戏，才能迎接最后半个小时的动作爽感，人物塑造感觉也不及前作，大量花式作死的工具人，魔女的角色感觉还没有女雇佣兵的角色吸引人，不过结尾埋的坑还是有意愿继续看下去的。（7/10）
不知道是过渡原因还是因为故事本来就很烂，不太好看。虽说是妹妹的线，但是稀碎的离谱，正经戏份真的少得可怜。2个小时也不知道讲了个什么，就是几个变种人帮派打来打去，也没有什么脑力较量，就东一块西一块。累了真的。最后，可操控时间和空间，这不是变种人，是神吧。我要看你3怎么圆。
感觉自己看了一部韩国版《超人：钢铁之躯》，这小女孩特么开挂的
实验室女主逃出，农场。两组人（雇佣兵和上海4人组，分别代表博士和第一部女主）去找女主。
兽医大叔的戏可以剪掉，太啰嗦了。遇到姐弟的感情戏突兀，魔女妹妹的线都成配角线了，视角线大多在帅哥美女这儿。这样的话，下一部又把视角线转到魔女姐妹就很失败了。
#5.8/10#魔女主线太弱，情感描写太俗。以至于姐弟两暴毙没有一点点共情，完全没有第1部魔女生活的代入感，可能人设需要，这部魔女全程一个表情，经历过悲欢离合后心智居然没有任何成长。另外打斗戏更多突出特效层面的场景破坏和追求眼花缭乱的极致速度，也少了第一部拳拳到肉的打斗设计，比较可惜。
[视]低配张东健拿抢指着低配彭昱畅。微血，导演<魔女>
第一部有多好看，第2部就有多差。这部电影完全可以叫做超能力者大乱斗。魔女反而成为了配角，除了最后放出大招之外。前面都在装成傻白甜。支线人物态度太过于复杂，完全夺走了主角的光芒。
如果第一部100分，第二部我给30分。
唉……做过能力强者就完了，真的没必要硬加感情线
能力太特么强了。
这个就不得了了，美国的超级英雄能力各有特点，思密达的改造人就比较随心所欲了，瞬间回血，意念控物，自动防御，一个集合了我爱罗、四代目火影、霸王色霸气、超人、浩克、万磁王、死侍各种能力的开挂魔女，我真怕她一个用力把地球给弄爆炸了
第一部那么惊艳的动作戏到续集变成魔幻了，从基因改造战士变成超英
节奏很慢，特效虽好，但是比较扯淡，情节和第一部雷同，但是整体的感官远远不如第一部。
有几个非动作桥段的氛围营造还是不错的，不过为啥就上海人要戴口罩，是在讽刺什么吗......
看到最后我发现我脸盲……所以胡子和他的老大没死，然后魔女姐妹带走了那对姐弟对吗
后面也没有像一代那样惊艳的反转，基本就是看个特效。
新女主能力太强了，有点过分了。期待新老女主在第三部相遇。
不过这代魔女太猛了，类似祖国人了哈哈哈。
