Melody Mooney Watching a sci-fi thriller with out as much action just seems Brutal. Big hats off the the director and the actors and of course the stars, the stunt coordinators for putting together this gem of a indie film. It is being hailed and awarded by the MMA world as well as the online horror film community. It is one you will be both covering your eyes to watch as well as not looking away. The tone reminds me of a Twilight Zone episode in all the good ways. It will leave you with questions and thinking about it for days to come. The acting is as solid as the hits and the fight scenes are indeed Brutal as the title promises. It is a violent ride but one that also pauses to accept man's nature and just how much we can endure. Looking forward to more work from this director and team!

dinglinfeng3000 terrible movie and completely waste of time to watch it. Could not continue to watch it after 15 minutes....Don't really trust IMDb ratings now since more and more over rates for cheap movies. Don't think this movie deserve a rating. And don't know where and how the 6.7 rate come from and from who. This is really bad for watch and worse of all, waste of time. IMDb should be responsible for these kind of ratings . because it misleading and misreport the good rated movies should be. People involved in the over ratings should be banned from future voting , which also include the same account with same IP address. What everybody think ?

billoberstjr I saw this film at its Los Angeles premiere at the Academy Of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences. If the action sequence that opens BRUTAL doesn't get your attention, you're dead. From moment one, the audience is drawn into the hellishly surreal world into which a mysterious force has dropped Trevor (Morgan Benoit) and Derrick (Jeff Hatch.) BRUTAL combines some of the most balls-to-the-wall fight choreography you've ever seen (Benoit and Hatch's bone-crunching fights are so realistic that they are simultaneously hard to watch and hard to turn away from,) a sci-fi undercurrent and a nuanced lead performance that should, by all rights, make Morgan Benoit a star. BRUTAL cuts across the genres, and Donald Flaherty's mix of Twilight Zone-esque mystery and raw brutality makes for a fascinating ride.

judkinssteve I was fortunate to attend the screening of Brutal in late 2013. I was very impressed with the films originality. A concept I have not seen before. The fight scenes were as the title suggested "Brutal" the actors were obviously trained fighters as some of the stunts were very clearly done by them.The story was a times heart breaking and at other times intensely dramatic. Great performances by the leads as well as the supporting cast. The actress who played the mother was very believable and gave the story a real heart.Morgan Benoit who played the younger of the two lead actors is a name to watch out for. I have seen him in a couple of films now and his fight skills matched with some good acting chops should see him go from strength to strength.Overall I thought Brutal was great. I think it will do very well on an international scale as the film is not heavy on dialogue and the fight scenes will keep any action/fight fan on the edge of their seat.
