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.
我对作品算比较宽容了，都觉得第三部拍成这样，未来很危险。如邓布利多最后所说，平淡，太平淡了。回想不出有什么精彩的点或者兴奋的镜头，回到霍格沃兹都拍得平淡如水纯走过场，也就看到年轻的麦格教授比较欣慰，再加小巷打斗时的咬人书和游走球。就围绕地球巫师联邦选举领袖这一件事，硬生生把麒麟扯进来点神奇动物的题，浪费了很好的时代背景。角色弧光在哪里？只能说唯一勉强看得进去的就是麻瓜雅各布了。对照一下哈利波特第三部阿兹卡班的囚徒电影多么出色，神奇动物的第三部不应该这样。
感觉就是前面画了一堆悬念大饼，但就乏味流水账
Tina没出现的理由也太牵强了……更牵强的是英国魔法部傲罗司负责人在德国失踪或被非法拘押居然没有成为国际事件……
1、本片最大的意义在于，在这样的大制作主流电影中，同性恋情节不是可有可无的添头，而是比较重要的线吧。2、观影心路历程&本作与前作《格林德沃之罪》的比较 ：https://movie.douban.com/review/14482685/
啥都有点儿，但也可以说是要啥没啥。骗骗小孩的电影。
导演不愧是我最讨厌的好莱坞三个导演前2名，缺点依旧。很多人在骂罗琳的编剧，完全没想过要不是罗琳的故事有意思，鬼才看这个垃圾的片子。
看电影之前我查了一下给第二部打了两星还觉得自己也太harsh了 可是神奇动物到底在哪里啊 为什么我唯一的神奇是要为了你们蠢笨人类的登基啊 几几年了啊
虽然冗长，但回到这个世界的几小时很让人愉悦
就像我的论文一样：平铺直叙没有重点、节奏拖沓废话一堆、啥都想讲啥都讲不好，一些关键转折就糊弄略过，最后强行得出结论试图点题。
有点过于堆砌世界观了，而且很多角色的工具人属性太明显。自从知道这个系列有5部以后我就对可能空洞的剧情与不够好看的群像充满了心理准备……从预告片花放出来兄弟二人与邓布利多的片段的时候，也做好了迎接be美学和卖腐噱头的准备……但我也没想到一部比一部能越来越点题，神奇动物在哪里？目前这个系列最好的还是第一部
罗琳像是与时代不合，恁是一群魅力十足的演员，都回天无术，同时在网络上还遭遇了众叛亲离，试问谁能解
我怀疑这是个洗钱项目◡ ヽ(`Д´)ﾉ ┻━┻
就很合格的爆米花魔法片儿嘛
邓布利多和格林德沃完全没CP感，格林那部分很纳粹
Only a truly brave man could open himself up so honestly and completely as you do.
“邓布利多站在空旷的街道中央看着这白雪皑皑的世界，那一刻是真实能够感觉到他的孤独。”
PS：神奇动物在哪里？在《山海经》里。。。╮(╯▽╰)╭
没有神奇动物只有基情的电影，无聊至极，终止这个系列或者换人来导吧
纯路人 不懂你们GGAD 感觉麦子抱着麒麟溢出来的感情都比跟裘花强烈 over
剧情实在是让人打不起精神，基本都是对白，完全没有第一部的精彩，高潮也是草草了事，没有哈利波特这个情怀可能都不会看这部电影
