When you just want some entertaining weekend carnage of a legendary badass Finn in commando style WWII warfare putting Nazis through the grinder in over-the-top brutalizing bloody pulp methods, (even Ninurta will be impressed with the minefield scene) with sensationalized crimson juice splatter and feats of defying gravity that would impress any immortal, where the hero just refuses to die with a powerful narrative of determination, strength, and the unyielding spirit of human resilience, I recommend this Finnish movie... SISU - During the last desperate days of WWII, a solitary prospector (Jorma Tommila) crosses paths with Nazis on a scorched-earth retreat in northern Finland. When the Nazis steal his gold, they quickly discover that they have just tangled with no ordinary miner.
Filmed in Finland's Lapland wilderness. No dialog for first ~15 minutes.
It's not as extravagant or grandiose as Inglourious Basterds, but very much enjoys being a hard-knox, gritty 1940s revenge fantasy in all the right ways.
