      ​@@Fazuchon While Finland was an ally to Germany during Continuation War (and during Operation Barbarossa there were Wehrmacht regiments next to Finnish ones in the frontline), the Lapland war that happened after that was a real conflict, where the Nazis used scorched land tactics and mined a lot of Lapland. Not all of the mines have been demined even at this point and it took more than 10 years to fix the infrastructure damages. While the actual story of the film is fictional, the war it is set in wasn't. Please, don't spread misinformation.

    Just saw this and here’s my thoughts: the strength of the movie is the cinematography. This movie is absolutely stunning to look at with some just powerfully shot scenes. The very beginning with the planes flying overhead might be one of my favorite shots in years. The violence is way up there, the tension is through the roof at times. And the main character…this role was made for him. Highly recommend seeing this movie in theaters.

      The marketing was simple, they released a trailer with a bunch of random action scenes and then throughout the trailer said this is the greatest trailer ever made. Not only were they so egotistical that they thought their own trailer was the greatest trailer ever made, but they kept pushing it to the point that they try to make it the biggest thing ever, and what's worse is they hid behind the label that they're the same people that made John Wick and the fact that this movie is about saving a dog. They pretty much pulled on the heartstrings of people to get people to like this movie while also having an inflated ego to the point that you say that your trailer is the greatest trailer ever released. This movie is a film I will not support simply due to the fact that they're so full of themselves and it makes me not want to watch the film. I'll just go re-watch John Wick 4 again.

    "Sisu is a unique Finnish concept. It is a Finnish term that can be roughly translated into English as strength of will, determination, perseverance, and acting rationally in the face of adversity."
    Greetings from Finland. I already saw it months ago since it came earlier to cinema here in Finland. After all those 3 hour marvel movies its refreshing to see a movie that keeps things simple. Just one guy against a group of nazis. Loved the gore and how brutal the action was. Jorma Tommila was also made for this role, cant think of any other Finnish actor who could have pulled this of. The last 1/3 gets little bit goofy with cheesy dialog(in the wrong way) and the last action sequence felt too over the top compared to the rest of film. But in overall, a solid film, would love to see this character again.

    I'm going to have to throw in a quick comment about the plane "disintegrating" at the end of the movie. The plane dove indeed into a large swamp (quite recognizable to local folk). Apparently these swamps can reach the depths of even 10 meters, although 2-4 meters is more common. Still nonsensical, but I guess that's what they were going with. Regardless, if you fall into an eye of a swamp, it can be damn near impossible to pull yourself out on your own. Apparently this guy did just that.
    I think the story of this man is a kind of an exaggerated amalgamation of all of the stories behind many of the Mannerheim Cross recipients. Here's one as an example from Corporal Fisk:
    At one point, the company he was attached to was the target of a surprise attack by enemy forces. The young corporal decided that they needed additional support, and dashed away. To get his message through, he had to cross terrain covered by fire from 10 heavy machine guns, more than 10 light machine guns, other infantry weapons, as well as heavy mortar fire. Getting through to the own forces, he was then able to call in artillery support to save his company.
    A year later the Soviet Union attacked and captured a Finnish strongpoint codenamed ‘Sevastopol’. Gerdt volunteered to take part in the counterattack to recapture it, and according to the records charged forward as the first man. Armed with a sub-machine gun and hand grenades, he took out tens of enemies, always heading for where the fighting was the fiercest. He also dragged the mortally wounded captain Toffer, another Mannerheim Knight, back to the Finnish lines, after which he swiftly returned to the battlefield. His example is quoted as playing an important role in ensuring that the counterattack succeeded.
    Shortly after this he was decorated with the Mannerheim Cross, and in 1943 promoted to officer in the reserve, taking part in course number 57. He was wounded three times, including during the fighting at Sevastopol, before he was discharged after the end of the war in November 1944. End Quote.
    I've read accounts much crazier than this. Liked the review. Liked the movie. Have a good one.

By the time our guy was going down in the plane, I was laughing my head off in joy, going along with the absurdity of the escalating events. Very fun time, and I'm happy y'all enjoyed it together!

    I think the wreckage from the final plane crash may have cost too much, coz every scene with the large plane was a CGI plane, maybe CGI wreckage would have looked too bad and they couldn't afford to make physical wreckage so they made the decision to show no wreckage at all. Him surviving the big crash was the single most unbelievable part, but the film gets a pass anyway, it was pure hard-hitting entertainment from start to end!

    Finnish man during world war 2 era were more hardy that the main character in Sisu. And during Winter War were Finnish fought by themselfs against Sovient Union, was full of Tall Tale but real stories: Here is one of them. Called, miracle of Winter War.
    1939. Sovient Union attacks Finland. Infantry company 40 that is made from senior citizens of Finland, with poor military equipment, is doing military refresher course, when company leader Major Armas Perksalo get note, that puts Ic40 into the war.
    Armas and his senior company had impossible task at hand. Their job was to stop Sovient Union attacks and prevent them to go Sweden through Salla mountain. 1500 soldiers Ic40 included went against 20 000 Sovient Union soldiers. 18 december 1939. You could get anything from the sky: Water, snow, anything. And temperature was between minus 86°F and minus 104°F. Weather during that time was extraordinary. To Finns it was advantage, as Finns didn't have any high tech equipment of that time like tanks, or cars. To Sovient it was bad.
    Part of the Finnish 1500 men decided to flank Sovient troops, but Finns didn't have any way of contacting to other Finns so nobody knew what anybody was doing. So Finns troops were scattered all around battlefield without knowing what others were doing, because of this Sovient troops started to be scared and panic as they heard sound of war all around them. They started feel like there were billions of Finns, that were everywhere. And all the sudden a Sovient soldier dropped dead into his truck. It was last drop to Sovient. In terror and panic they retreat, as weather was horrible nothing worked and they got kicked ass by punch of senior citizens who seemed to be all around them. Finns won that battle. And today on that same battlefield is a memorial stone that reads: "God was with us."
    We Finns are hardy in real life too, almost as if we were biological Terminators with luck of Han Solo.

    The Plane sinks into swampy ground... lapland is probably 50% swamp (a bit of a hyperbole) so I think most finnish ppl dont bat an eyelid when the plane is just not there anymore. xD You can even see the guy crawling up from the swamp... yeah, you need a metric TON of suspension of disbelieve when watching this movie but I think its pretty damn entertaining.

Yes, an incredible movie. A few things where you reallllly have to suspend disbelief but I'm ok with it because I view this movie as a retelling of a legend of this man. Most stories get more and more embellished in the retelling, So in this telling, a bunch of his feats esp near the end are almost superhuman. But I didn't care. Nazis getting destroyed? Hell ya! Im going to buy this when I can.

I Liked Sisu more than John Wick 4, because EVERYONE had magic suits which were bulletproof, and EVERYONE was supposed to be secret super-agent. It was like a parody of John Wick. Sisu has few issues, but still much less.

    I'd like to point out that Aatami wasn't fighting for the Nazis, he fought in the Winter War against the Soviet Union. The Winter War is a very short war (3 months) that took place in Finland in 1939-40 when the Soviets invaded the country. The finns where only defending themselves, not fighting with the nazis. Fun fact. In that war was born an actual real legend. His name was Simo Häyhä, a finnish sniper with 219 confirmed killes, though he is believed to have killed over 500 enemy soldiers during the Winter War. Maybe the Aatami character was losely based on him.

    I think this movie was almost really good. I had a couple problems with the movie. They obviously weren’t going for realism in some of the scenes, but some of it felt a little too over the top for me. And some of the interactions/dialogue felt too modern for me. Like every chapter name were proper nouns/verbs, then the chapter: “Kill ‘em All” felt like terminology we’d use today, not during WW2. And when the girl was driving the truck, looked over to the guy and lifted her head as a way of saying “sup” it just felt so modern, like nobody in 1944 I’d saying “sup.” Outside of some petty nitpicking though, this is a very smartly written movie, that I think Is still well worth the price of admission.

    • @lilahkane2815

      In Finnish we actually had another word for "Kill 'em all" that can't be translated. I guess you could call it an inside joke for Finns. For us it said: Tupenrapinat, which made us all laugh out loud. You actually say it to kids when they have done something bad and now they are going to get it OR like in this movie: The Nazis will get hurt soon SO badly.

    My opinion as a Finnish person is that many swamps at the northern periphery of Finland are actually quite deep and mostly water. So MAYBE the plane didn't actually pulverise or get disintegrated it could've been that the plane just "sunk underwater" and Aatami Korpi as the SisuMan survives the impact because he is a mythological immortal Finnish superhero
