Watched: Sisu: Road to Revenge 🍿

Sisu β€” a Finnish word with no direct English translation. Think grit, resilience, and sheer stubborn will to survive, all rolled into one. That’s also the whole movie.

Post-WWII Finland. Ex-commando Aatami Korpi just wants to move his family’s house somewhere safe β€” until the Soviet commander who murdered his family comes hunting for him. Brutal chase movie. Ridiculous action. Jorma Tommila doesn’t say a word the entire film and still carries every scene.

Apparently there’s a first one I haven’t seen yet. Adding it to the watchlist.

Total blast.
