The Brutalist (2025)
The Brutalist is streaming in Singapore on Netflix.
The verdict
The Brutalist is a dependable English film — it does what it sets out to do. It carries a 6.9/10 on TMDB across 1,826 ratings — squarely mid-table. At 215 minutes, it asks for a real chunk of your night. In Singapore you can stream it on Netflix.
Should you spend 3h 35m on it?
3h 35m of English drama. At this length it's the whole evening's plan, not something to slot in after dinner.
Don't watch this if…
- you don't have 3h 35m to give it tonight — this is a full evening, not a background watch
- you're watching with family — it's certified R21
- Why
- 6.9/10 from 1,826 ratings — well received so far, on a modest sample.
- Skip if
- you want something you can finish before a reasonable bedtime
- Best for
- A night with nothing after it
Story
