Plot: Deep in the wilderness of Lapland, Aatami Korpi is searching for gold. From time to time, the overflight of bombers and the distant sounds of war can be heard in the autumn night. Finally, the hard work is rewarded and the gold dust in the pan grows into gold chunks, and Aatami sets out to take his gold treasure to the nearest city. After he stumbles upon Nazi patrol led by SS Obersturmführer Bruno Helldorf, a breathtaking and gold-hungry chase through the destroyed and mined Lapland wilderness begins.

I knew that Sisu sounded familiar . . .

James May on Top Gear being told by Mika Hakkinen ( F1 world Champion ) why the Finn's make such good race drivers.

Also when I was grabbing those screenshots from Youtube, there was in the comments a Finn, explaining further:

I'm a finn, I've never heard a actually good way to explain Sisu in english until recently. Sisu means that you are willing to do, what you have to do. Without any consideration of you own safety, or well being. And knowing that you propably won't get any thanks for it. You just do it

Also that comment is 3 years old, so not in relation to someone wanting to explain it in relation to the upcoming film.

It's close to that, just basically a way to say "endure the bullshit you need to endure", ask 10 people for translation and you'll get 10 different ones.

Saw this last night. It's everything you expect and more and it's fucking great. Well worth a watch if you can still find it in theaters this week.

out on torrents too, movie is apparently really fun and did well at the box office ($10m on a $5m budget) and should make more on VOD now

THis was dope as fuck. It's like Pulp Fiction, Rambo first blood, and john Wick rolled into one.

I really didn't like it past the first 30-40 mins or so. Shortly after the minefield, most of the cool death/asskicking is done with and the movie becomes slow as fucking shit. And the "girl power" scene almost made me roll my eyes into the back of my head.

A small group of dirty, raped women with guns isn't girl power.

It's good ole revenge.

Loved it. The fact that he never speaks is pretty cool too. Not quite the same as Willy's Wonderland where Nicolas Cage never speaks, but no one is Nic Cage levels of crazy.

This was a really good movie, wasn't too long, did what it needed to and got out. Is it ridiculous? Absolutely. But I wasn't watching to see realism.
