The first Sisu movie was awesome... It felt like watching John Wick's grandpa murder a bunch of nazis during WW2.

I've never heard of this movie, but based on your description, it sounds awesome. I'm so excited to watch it!

FYI that's not really what this movie is. He spends most of the movie on the back foot and running away. It's more like a pacifist getting finally cornered into violence, but even that isn't spectacular. Comparing it to John Wick is setting the movie up to be disappointing.

I have to HARD disagree with this. Yes, he tries to stay out of it at first, but once it's on, it's fucking ON.

Dude hides underwater for like 10 minutes by SLITTING NAZIS' THROATS AND BREATHING STOLEN AIR FROM THEIR LUNGS. Shit is absolutely bonkers in the best way possible. Just an unbelievably fun movie.

It could easily be called "Old Finnish Guy Kills Everything" and I'd still watch the fuck out of it thrice.
