Just watched this film at a friend's house last night and I was pleasantly surprised at how good it was!
The plot concerns a group of friends from Brooklyn who disrespect a crime boss named Carlo (superbly portrayed by Peter Green) one night. As a result, they're beaten within an inch of their lives and left bleeding in the street.
Eager to retaliate, the four friends hold up Carlo's bookmaking operation and make off with almost 100k. BIG MISTAKE! The friends quickly realize they're in way over their head once Carlo decides to exact revenge.
Brutal is a dark, gritty, no nonsense crime film in the same vein as Pusher. If movies like that are up your alley, I highly recommend this one.
