- TriviaJalmari Helander was originally going to direct a comedic sci-fi film "Jerry and Ms Universe" in Canada. When it was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic, he quickly wrote Sisu (2022) in the fall of 2021. The film's budget is around $6 million.
- GoofsThe tank used by the SS platoon is a Soviet-made T-54/55 which was introduced well after World War 2, not even a T-34 which actually was available in 1945.
Featured review
Don't get me wrong, I love my meat, but without the potatoes, it's not really a full meal.
Sure, it was ridonculous and fun, but this could've easily been so much better had the filmmaker spent less time with the repetitive logic-defying suspension of disbelief with the outrageous confrontations and deadly fight scenes, and focused more on a singular theme and tone for the dramatics, with expanding on the narrative - instead of plugging in pointless chapters. You can take only so much nonsense before you start thinking if this is a war parody film. A little more dialogue and character building would've also gone a long way. Even at a mere 91 min runtime and the decent pacing, there was barely a story here to make a short film, let alone 91 mins. At least the cinematography, S/VFX and gore were top-notch though. Nevertheless, an entertaining popcorn actioneer.
