    If you want to see more finnish war movies, I would recomend The unknown soldier (2017). It's in finnish and quite a long movie but it shows more about the second world war and is presented from the point of view of a machine gun company of the Finnish Army during the Continuation War between Finland and the Soviet Union from 1941 to 1944. It´s not quite as gory as Sisu but it has more of the brotherly feeling that you felt like was missing in this.

    • @squidcaps4308

      And then Tali-Ihantala and Beyond the Front Lines. The last one especially is a gem as it has a lot of comradery and the difference between front lines and home front (and also is about the "forgotten soldiers", the Swedish-Finns battalions.. most Finnish war movies are about Finnish speaking Finns....). As war movies i would put both of those above The Unknown Soldier... that movie is special to Finns because of the 1950s version and the book itself but Tali-Ihantala and BTFL are better at giving us more realistic view of what it was like.

    Fact: finnish soldier Simo Häyhä has the most confirmed kills (at least 505 Russians) and they only put 300 to the main character here, from the same war. I kinda love that, that has to be intentional.
    Edit: you adressed that later :D
    Finnish movies tend to be like this, very little dialogue often. This is my new favourite movie. I just love it. It is so finnish, even with all its international team.

    For Roxy.. The Finns were in a totally screwed position during WW2. The Russians declared war on them in '39, the Germans gave them some military aid. The British and the French were putting together a sizable enough force to aid them that they would have basically gone to war with Russia.. Christopher Lee was involved in that part. The Russians forced them to give up about 20% of their country including their second or third largest city and then like a year later went to war with them again because reasons. So for a sizable part of the war the Finns were not allied with Germany but were fighting the same country: Russia.

      "The Russians declared war on them in '39, the Germans gave them some military aid."
      No they didn't. Germany stopped all aid from going through Germany during the winter war. Germany made the Molotov-Ribbentrob pact with the USSR and divided Poland, Baltic States and Finland among themselves. Most of it was handed to the USSR sphere of influence. Only during the continuation war Germany had intrests similar to Finland and helped Finland until September -44, when Germany started to attack Finnish held Baltic Sea islands and retreating from the Lapland, while mining and destroying everything.

    Great reaction! I loved this movie so much when I saw it in the cinema with my dad and brother. As a Norwegian, I feel very happy to have our *stoic* but friendly Finnish neighbors having joined our defense alliance (NATO). They have a very well functioning society, they are super democratic and organized. They also have a badass military / defense infrastructure (without compare). They have enough survival bunker space to house all their main population centers, plus they have been fastidious in stockpiling all the worst-case supplies that even we failed to do in Norway. Remember Covid19? Norway had to do a topsy-turvy to get enough masks etc. Finland had it all covered, because they are very pragmatic. In their gigantic survival bunker complexes, they *even* have saunas and swimming halls, sports arenas.

      The underground swimming halls, sports arenas etc are mainly for peace time, to make use of the large spaces down there. It was pretty convenient to place them there because there's plenty of room and this way they won't take up space above ground. During war they would be transformed into shelters.

    To a Finn watching Sisu feels probably a bit different, because Finland fought against the Soviet Union with the aid from Germany and because we've heard these war stories and seen movies made out of them all our lives. If the movie feels incredible, the real life stories are often even more incredible. YT has made some of the stories known abroad also. Like Simo Häyhä's, who didn't just kill at least 505 enemies with his riffle, but probably also over 200 with his submachine gun. While fighting against an overwhelming enemy and ending up living to an age of 96 after having already been thought to have died after being shot in the face. One iconic Finnish war movie scene is the scene in the movie The Unknown Soldier, in which a character Rokka shoots 50 enemies. The crazy thing is, that in the real life event the real life Rokka, Viljam Pylkäs, shot 80 enemies. Assumable they didn't have 80 people for the scene when they filmed the movie for the first time in 1955 or 50 enemies just seemed plenty enough. Here's some real life stories and movie scenes based on them. Here's an YT video about Simo Häyhä: "The Ghostly Sniper Who Defied All Odds in WWII". A scene from a movie The Winter War: "Kane Anon The Winter War - Molotov cocktail". Here's that Rokka scene from a 2017 film: "Finnish scouts ambush Soviet force Pt. 3 | Finnish Soviet War". These two videos are about one soldier's story: "Finnish soldier never give up - Rukajärven tie" and "A true story of Kärkkäinen- Rukajärven tie". Here's a video about real life soldier, a character based of whom John Wayne played in movie The Green Beret: "Lauri and the Russian Hit List − The Finn Who Fought Under Three Different Flags". Then there is the story of Aimo Koivunen: "The Terrifying Soldier Rampaging on 30 Tablets of Meth". Here's a lecture about Finland's role regarding the Holocaust: "Strangers in a Stranger Land: Finland's Jewish Soldiers in WWII".

      I just replied to a comment about Finnish Airforce emblem (which was swastika for long time).. But i think my reply fits here after giving the backstory..
      "The Finnish Air Force used Swastika far before Nazis did. The story it simple: when Finland became independent a Swedish baron wanted to improve Finnish defenses and was avid aviation enthusiasts. So, he donated couple of war planes and that started the Finnish Air Force. Honoring him the FAF picked the barons family crest as an emblem, and that has swastika on it.
      FAF stopped using it in 2020... Internet is too powerful, there is NO WAY we can explain all of what i just said to all people in the world. But, like i said it predates nazis by two decades and had absolutely nothing to do with each other. But it also highlights the relations between Finns and Swedes: we are brothers, their cause is our cause. It is as simple as that, our fates will be forever tied to each other."
      It is difficult to really understand knowing world history that there could exist a strong emotional connection between two nations. This kind of feeling i have should not be possible and yet.. it is real. It is very precious and we must cherish it and keep it strong. It won't stay like this without effort. One thing that helps keeping this feeling strong: We all know what is at stake.

    It is based On Simo Hayha not verbatim but he was a phenomenal sharpshooter for Finland During The Winter Wars during 1939 to 1940 imagine this all of his kills were done in 100 days 5 per day especially during that time when there is hardly any day light !! against Russia he killed close to 500 soldiers !!!! Without Ever Using a Scope !!! Outrageous accuracy !!!! his nickname is the WHITE DEATH HE IS KNOWN AS THE GREATEST SHARP SHOOTER IN HISTORY EVER FOR ANY WAR !! I just looked him up he is awesome .....

    So Finland's part in WWII is interesting. They weren't an Axis Power, but briefly had to ally with the Nazis because the Soviets were invading Finland. But they only allied with the Nazis because they needed help fighting the Soviets. That was sort of during the Winter War and much more during the Continuation War.
    This movie takes place during the Lapland War, which as the beginning of the movie said, Finland was now being forced to switch sides and be friendlier with the Soviets than with the Nazis, so now they were fighting the Nazis instead of allied with them. Finland had a lot of shit going on lol
    Poor Finland just wanted to stay out of WWII but they were being forced to make and drop alliances of circumstance with both the fascists and the commies lol

      No, it is an ancient good luck symbol from thousands of years ago (Hindu, Buddhist...) Finnish air force put it on planes in 1918. Then one guy from Germany ruined it and began using it in the 1930s.

    • @squidcaps4308
      @squidcaps4308 Рік тому +3

      The Finnish Air Force used Swastika far before Nazis did. The story it simple: when Finland became independent a Swedish baron wanted to improve Finnish defenses and was avid aviation enthusiasts. So, he donated couple of war planes and that started the Finnish Air Force. Honoring him the FAF picked the barons family crest as an emblem, and that has swastika on it.
      FAF stopped using it in 2020... Internet is too powerful, there is NO WAY we can explain all of what i just said to all people in the world. But, like i said it predates nazis by two decades and had absolutely nothing to do with each other. But it also highlights the relations between Finns and Swedes: we are brothers, their cause is our cause. It is as simple as that, our fates will be forever tied to each other.

    The dog (not sheep, lol) is a breed known as a Bedlington Terrier. From good ol' Wikipedia:
    "[they] are noted for being very quick and having high endurance. They love snow, and can achieve a Husky-like turn of speed on ice or in deep powder, using their powerful noses as a plough. Bedlingtons are noted for their similarity in appearance to lambs."
    They have that distinctive topknot of hair on their heads, giving them an unmistakeable profile.

    Sisu was based on a Finnish Sniper named Simo Hayha called the white death he had over 500 conformed kills.

  • @seanrobey8335
    @seanrobey8335 25 днів тому

    Me and my friends saw this in theaters the whole time we were like HOLYSH...but The 2023 action film Sisu incorporates some real-life elements, including the Finnish military sniper Simo Häyhä and the Winter War of 1939-1940. The film's protagonist, Aatami Korpi, is a Finnish commando who fought in the Winter War and became a legendary anti-Russian hitman. Korpi's character is inspired by Häyhä, as well as fictional figures like Rambo. The film also takes place during the Lapland War of 1944, which was a real conflict between Germany and Finland

    Two other Finnish movies you should try to see is.
    Unknown Soldier 2017 (Tuntematon sotilas) there are two older version but the 2017 one is the one to go fore. There are 2 versions of the movie one that is a little over 2 hours and one that is closer to 3 hours.There is also a TV series that was filmed at the same time as 5 episodes the episodes are about an hour long. You should see the series or the longer movie.
    The book Unknown Soldier is written by the author Väinö Linna, he himself was in the war which the movie is based on.
    And you should watch the movie Heavy Trip it is about an fictional metal band.
    I think you get some laughs.

    Like many others have said, you might also like the Finnish movie "Tuntematon sotilas" (Unknown soldier). I might be a bit biased (as I'm a Finn), but it's my favourite movie ever. It's really realistic in a way Hollywood movies about WW2 aren't. Would be cool to see you react to it😁

    The version of Sisu that I saw had no English. The characters spoke German/Finnish. It may be that they shot multiple versions of the movie in different languages.

    The Finnish prisoner on the truck summed it up very well: 'It's not about being the strongest; it's about not giving up.' As you pointed out, Korpi could have plausibly died a number of times throughout the film - he is not invincible. The Soviets feared his spirit more than anything else.
