Novelist Cormac McCarthy explored the idea that violence can be regenerative and redemptive. In Sisu: Road to Revenge, Helander has painted that concept on the movie screen 20 feet tall, near death, and dripping with gore. By becoming inhumane, Aatami seeks to recover his humanity. Never before will you have felt so cleansed by such brutality.

Road to Revenge is everything you could want from a rough-and-tumble, tough-as-nails action movie. 'Sisu' was even more of it, but only by a matter of degrees.

This movie is a gem. Main protag and main antagonist do a superb job. Slow burn straight up manly man film. Go see it!

The good news is that it remains terrific: punchy, old-school stunt work, crisply uncluttered cutting, and varied, inventive baddie-splattering from the moment Aatami deploys one of those beams to take down a jet fighter.

There's something to be missed from the first due to the predictability of his path in this iteration, but there are enough surprises and novelties (usually violent) to provoke delight and get adrenaline pumping.

There are moments when the sequel nearly overdoes it, when Helander’s thirst for blood threatens to overpower the film. Yet, in its simplicity, it finds a steady rhythm that quickens gradually, peaks, and resets. It isn’t profound or enlightening, but for 89 minutes, it rides the fury road confidently, flipping tanks and unleashing hell along the way.

It’s gloriously, audaciously silly, and I’d be lying if I said I didn’t have a good time.

I laughed at a few of the more audacious butcherings, but that was early on. The narrative settles into a slog in the middle acts and no pull-out-the-stops train ride finale could drag it out of the mud.

After the first film, when the hero (Jorma Tommila) defeated hundreds of ****, he returns to his home in Russian-occupied Finland where his wife and children were brutally murdered. He loads up a truck with his home’s disassembled timber and heads back to safety in his country. Meanwhile, the Communists are out to stop him. This excerpt from my original review also applies this time (my review): “He becomes a sort of John Wick, violently killing his opposition, while remaining virtually unscathed. Even when he gets wounded and worse, he manages to emerge to continue his quest. This attitude is the approximate translation of the title, “courage and determination.” The only reason to see this film is for the brutal acts of death, which are sometimes cleverly dispatched.” The big difference this time is that the stunts are absurdly over-the-top, jumping the shark as it goes. They’re still brutal, vicious and quickly dispatched, but he’s overcoming odds that only a superhero could endure. If you can accept the absurdity of it all, there are lots of bloody encounters. BTW, he does make it to the “Finnish” line.

File Under: Violence Porn. This thing should be rated NC-17. There is a point at which violence becomes obscene. This film goes beyond that. The filmmakers use a threadbare plot with little dialogue to fill the screen with revolting gore. If you’re tripping on some adolescent male power fantasy, this one might be for you. Otherwise this film is an insult to human intelligence and creativity.
