Gorefest action film.
Sisu is the kind of movie The Gang from Always Sunny would love, in the classic traditions of Thunder Gun. Unrepentant, unreformed, unstoppable, ultramacho thriller. A film which refuses to let the laws of physics or what is medically possible get in the way of a good movie.
A grizzled old gold miner in Finland strikes it big at the end of the war, but runs afoul of a retreating Nazi company. What follows is an hour and a half of pure mayhem.
It is filled with gratuitous violence, inventive deaths, and epic one-liners, like, “He’s not immortal, he just refuses to die.”
This is a film for people who loved the action flicks of the 80s, with all their fucked gender representation and casual homophobia. When it started, I’ll be honest, I wasn’t sure I was gonna like it, but as soon as the killing began, it was just one joyful splatter after another.
An absolute thrill ride, utterly ridiculous, not intended to be taken seriously, whack-a-mole with Nazis.
