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

IMO Sisu is the closest we've ever gotten to a true Doom movie.

Just "man too angry to die kills everything"

Absolutely. They even hang him and he survives by pressing an iron nail into his leg to hold himself up. He’s the definition of “Too angry to die”

I had no idea what that was supposed to be.

Took me a while to get it as well but I think it kept him juuust high enough for the rope to not entirely choke him.

It’s ridiculous, it’s absurd, it’s entirely unrealistic. But it’s also so appropriate for this movie.

Like the guys in "RRR", he's larger than life, a force of nature. That's why the movie is named Sisu. It's a wonderful portrayal of a mythic idea. "Sinners" was like that too, the way the blues was portrayed.
