Sisu

It's a combination of John Wick and Mad Max Fury Road wrapped up in one badass Finn. Excellent action movie. Good way to start off 2025, killing a bunch of Nazis.

Sisu is an utterly ridiculous film. If Aatami was a woman, at least one "reviewer" here would be wailing about how woke this movie is, because it's only acceptable escapism if it's a man surviving a tank assault, a flurry of bullets, mines, immolation, drowning, hanging, and a goddamn plane crash. That being said, Sisu was indeed, quite an entertaining movie.

WWII action thriller about a lone man and ex-military that mines gold in Lapland, Finland during 1944 and the retreat of nazis forces. After encountering an abundant quantity of gold he encounters retreating units of nazis, a bigger one that encounters him, and a little one that messes with him and hell is set loose. Jalmari Helander director and writer did a good job on this one, that is divided in chapters - similarities with Rambo III and John Wick aren't so coincide since the production crew worked in John Wick. Wait for gory deaths, and very good choreographies on the sequences of fighting. The story is also original in it's way and reminds a lot Tarantino. Jorma Tommila as Aatami the protagonist does a good job, better that Keanu btw. There are some goofs as the post WWII tank used by the germans but ok. Good production and fun if you like revenge and violent movies, a 7,0 out of 10,0 / B for me.
