Jalmari Helander and Jorma Tommila's Sisu movie review

Posted on:
Key Points

The opening credits of writer and director Jalmari Helanders new films tells us its a word that cannot be clearly defined..

The first dialogue of the film comes after 15 minutes from a ruthless Nazi officer Bruno Helldorf (Aksel Hennie, who looks a lot like WWE Superstar The Miz)..

But it cant escape from the clichs of cinema one is accustomed to, monologuing by the villain and his henchmen in particular, leading to nothing but their own defeat (and death), or their inability to shoot the hero despite multiple gunshot attacks and attempts...

Immortal or not, a man needs air, says Bruno in one scene, but our hero has other plans to survive this battle of barbaric scale..

A scene shows a Nazi officer smoking a cigar and a disclaimer appears on the screen on how tobacco kills nearly 80 lac people every year..
