Absolutely love this movie saw twice in the theater and own it now. One day I will go to Finland as it sounds like a fantastic country. From America. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Sisu is a unique Finnish concept. It is a Finnish term that can be roughly translated into English as strength of will, determination, perseverance, and acting rationally in the face of adversity. Sisu is not momentary courage, but the ability to sustain that courage. It is a word that cannot be fully translated.
I think one thing that makes sisu so hard to define is that it exhibits itself in so many ways. Here is an example that is personal to me. I'll start off by saying my parents were born in the US to Finnish immigrants. The one thing my mom wanted was to have children. However, she had problems sustaining a pregnancy. Over the course of several years, she had 9 late-term miscarriages, the last two of which which resulted in baby girls born alive, but who only survived for hours afterwards. On the 1Oth try, I was born. (Due to the efforts of a Dr. who finally figured out what was going wrong.) People had told her over and over that she should stop trying, but she was not going to give up until forced to.
@@nicholauscrawford7903 Part of it, yes. another definition I've seen is "Extraordinary determination, courage and resoluteness in the face of adversity. An action mindset which enables individuals to see beyond their present limitations and into what might be. Taking action against the odds and reaching beyond observed capacities. On the other hand, sometimes it's just bull-headed stubbornness.
Sort of same here. I watch to see what they think is complete bs, but I also like there clowning more, if I had yo choose I would want to keep the clowning over the real commentary
Sisu has always been 80-90% "raw courage and stoicism" and 10-20% of over-the-top legendary stories of amazing Sisu ... so I think the over-the-top actually fits the tradition of Sisu
This is based on a real man who was a commando in the Finnish army during the Winter War with Russia. The commanding officer turned him lose into Lapland (way northern Finnish) because he was a bit unstable. He killed hundreds of Russian during the Winter War. They said he was impossible to kill (SISU). The movie inspired by the real-life Finnish sniper Simo Häyhä, nicknamed “The White Death.” Häyhä was a World War II sniper in the Winter War who is often regarded as the deadliest sniper in history, having been credited with over 500 kills. The movie is rated very high, some places 5 stars.
As a Finn and a former Sissi in the FDF, like the main character, I'm looking at this purely from entertainment perspective even when the tank and Dushka are from 1950s (and ... Soviet to boot. lol). That was the first thing I reacted to as "come on!" ;) The point is really (and yes, over the top way) that 'sisu' means you don't give up ... ever -- even when it is flat-out stupid not to. That's just what you get in the mom's milk here. The most fear inducing person in my childhood was my grandma and not so much my WWII maternal grandpa who was also a Sissi and served in the Lappish War 1945, because Winter War 1939-40 and Continuous War 1941-44 weren't just enough for one man to go through... Anyway, love the movie, love the message, and to hell with all the inaccuracies and over-the-top stuff. SISUA, PERKELE!!!! HAKKAA PAALLE!!!
@@FNGACADEMY So is your content, which I watch a lot because of our martial connection, as Sissis, to the Green Berets through CPT Lauri Torni aka Green Beret MAJ Larry A Thorne. Salute!
Glad you guys watched and enjoyed this one. I loved it as well, despite its ridiculousness. Reminds me of Paul Verhoeven films like Robocop, Total Recall, and Starship Troopers.
Those were all pretty deep movies. Robocop had some really complex undertones to it and it still holds up. The over-the-top consumerism of the 1980's. "I just think good business is where you find it." Total Recall was amazing. I think it was the highest budgeted movie ever at that time? They took a huge gamble and it paid off.
see but thing is, I don't think the film really got how retarded it was. Like they clearly expected us to fear the main character right? But the guys trying to kill him were literally literally mentally handicapped
Jorma Tommila, as the old guy Aatami, is brilliant. He just deadpans the whole movie brilliantly. And Aksel Hennie, as the Nazi officer, is also really good, quite happy to sacrifice his men for the gold and his escape. This just such a fun movie!
A doctor/surgeon did a breakdown on all of the guys injuries from Sisu. He talked about the water scene also, and did say that there definitely is enough oxygen on the exhaled breathe to be able to breath from, as long as you can get that air into your lungs. Even if it's mixed with some water, as long as you have the discipline to breathe it in, and back out, you'll oxygenate your blood enough to buy some more time.
the movie is awesome, the airplane crash is divine intervention and I love how he looks walking into that bank at the very end.......this is all that matters!
@@andrabook8758 Also to be fair there have been plane crash survivors in similar circumstances. So it's not as far fetched as the guys think. There arw a couple of famouse craah survivors, you can even look them up on google. For instance a female flight attendant survived a major passenger jet crash, because she was in here fold out flight attendant seat, in a similar position as in Sisu. The crash was also at an almost completely straight down angle like in the movie. The flight attendant survived that crash, with barely a scratch I believe.
Yup, that's Dr. Chris Raynor. Been following his channel ever since I discovered his video about how Space Marine body work from the medical perspective.
The movie's director, Jalmari Helander, said the 1982 film First Blood and the real-life Finnish military sniper Simo Häyhä, who fought against the Red Army, served as inspirations for the film. Simo Häyhä often referred to by his nickname, The White Death, was a Finnish military sniper in World War II during the 1939-1940 Winter War against the Soviet Union. He used a Finnish-produced M/28-30 (a variant of the Mosin-Nagant rifle) and a Suomi KP/-31 submachine gun. He is believed to have killed over 500 enemy soldiers during the Winter War (averaging 5 kills per day), the highest number of sniper kills in any major war. On 21 December 1939, Häyhä achieved his highest daily count of 25 kills. Because of this, he is often regarded as the deadliest sniper of all time.
You guys are hilarious! 😂😂😂 Man, you hit the nail on the head with your LMTV tarp comment! I’ve cursed and many tarps for not staying up on top! Even when the truck is not moving, it’s impossible to get that thing to stay up!
Superhuman strength, wild luck, a guy who keeps somehow coming back from certain death. The actors did a great job of slowly becoming scared to death of this guy with the looks on their faces. I like filmmakers who take chances like this. They took the format of one of those campfire legends and put it on film. And I'm glad you guys somehow managed to fit in yet another Ninja Turtle reference into this analysis.
Great reaction! Glad you guys watch movies like everyone should. Not how realistic or factual the movies are. You watch for the entertainment. Fun fact about the movie the young guy driving the tank is Jorma Tommila (Sisu) son in real life. Onni Tommila also was the kid in the movie "Big Game" with Samuel L Jackson. Another good movie.
20:02 One other impossibility - one of the girls is shooting a bolt action rifle, but it appears to be firing on full auto. The muzzle flashes were probably added digitally after filming.
About the lake scene, typically bodies of water in northern lapland really are crystal clear. Fell lakes have no undergrowth or sandy/muddy bottoms because there's very little plants.
Watched your video yesterday as I make my way through all your videos. I watched the movie right after. Holy sh*t I was not disappointed. Yes, you definitely would have been demonetized if you showed any of those scenes in their full cinematic splendor! I give it a 10/10 just cause.
The mine throwing and killing the enemy happened irl kinda when attacked by the enemy at night at a checkpoint Dipparsad Pun of Royal Gurkhas on 17 September 2010 fought them off. Over the course of the engagement, Acting Sergeant Pun fired 250 rounds from his machine gun, 180 from his rifle, used 17 hand grenades and a Claymore mine, before beating the last fighter, after his machine gun jammed, by throwing the tripod of his machine gun.
everything about this movie was amazing and yes the airplane crash was silly but it so was john wick falling off a building and smashing into fire escapes on the way down and walks away...it is what it is.
On those LMTV tarps. If it's properly set up there's going to be a bar and a string attached to where it pulls that bar rolling up the tailgate entrance. Being a 91B in the Army, I've never seen an LMTV with a tarp properly set up so I feel you on that struggle with trying to throw that tarp over LOL!
he is kinda like Reacher but with a less predictable story line. I can't really decide which I like best. I think I would have liked Reacher better IF the author had not gone so stereotypical-dumb with the story line..... as it is, I like Sisu better now, bc the story was a lot more interesting, and didn't feel totally stereotypical and predictable. I had no idea how the movie will end, so that's perfect.
Odin interferred, sh*t up! Just enjoy the insanity, ok? 😉😅😆There are plenty of insane military stories...could this one had been filmed a little better, aka more realistically? sure... but if you were in a plane crash would you REALLY know how it went down? no. Sh*t just happens, ok? You have to imagine this as a myth based on real events. And we all know the best myths are embellished a bit.... it was probably a lake, not a marsh, there probably was a parachute which malfunctioned, he probaly had to swim out? But would the cashier at the bank know that level of detail? No... And THUS, a myth is born 😈
My favorite part of this movie is when a guy tied up is watching sisu stitch himself up naked. The prisoners face as sisu screams in pain and anger while he tends to his wounds was hilarious
You guys should definetly watch a movie called "The unknown soldier" published in 2017. It tells a story of finnish machine gun company during continuation war (1941-1944) fighting against soviets. The movie really shows the horrors of war and is really good. One of the best war movies I have ever seen. Also very underrated.
This movie was only in the theaters for two weeks in my city, it was just thrown out to make room for other films so they can have 8 theaters a day that no one went to the new movies. Pro Tip here for the YOUNGER GUYS....Stick Matches up until the 1980s were strike on tips, meaning you could light them WITHOUT the striker pad on the box. We used to light stick matches with our fingernails one handed all the time. You could even drop a match so that the TIP hit concrete and LIGHT THEM.
This movie was awesome as hell. There's a doctor who has a TH-cam channel named Dr. Chris Raynor who does a breakdown of a lot of the crazy scenes from the movie and what would actually happen.
I liked the movie personally. Yeah, alot of that stuff was definitely like WTF??! But the message being sent is, given the proper motivation😜 mind, body, and will, produce an indomitable spirit. At least that's my take away. That and when I get to his age, I still wanna be an underestimated badass🤠😎👊🏾👍🏾😉
Those matches were common at least into the 90’s. I lit them with my thumbnail all the time. You could actually throw them hard against concrete and they would ignite. I guy had some in his pants pocket and was struck by a baseball and they ignited.
Love the content. Your review of 13 Hours is one of my favorite. Only critique I have, is I would like to see more of the scenes in the movie than personal stories of your time in the armed forces. Thank you for your service, you have this patriots respect. God bless and God bless the USA.
Sisu is not fully translatable. It's easier to understand if you are in the finnish mindset. It's the reason why Finland used to win over Sweden in hockey even though they were far below in skills. Truly hard people in every respect.
Who is the one greatest soldiers of greenberets? Only waffen ss man who is burried in Arlington military cemetery? That guy is Larry Thorne aka Lauri Törni, soldier of three armies. And that guy is real life badass from Finland.
He was among the first group of Green Beret's when they formed at 10th. And of that group, among the most Legendary. The 10th SFG HQ at Fort Carson is named after him. The guy had Neutronium balls. Nobody fk'd with Larry.
Hey guys! I absolutely LOVE your breakdowns and all you have to say! Really have loved your channel!! I’m often in the hospital and y’all always help me get my mind off of the pain and transplants (liver) for a bit. Really appreciate you all! Can you do a breakdown of “Special Forces”, the movie about British SF going in to rescue a reporter? It has Diane Kruger, Djimon Hounsou, Benoit Magimal. I’d love to hear what you have to say about the movie! I do apologize because it does have subtitles! But it be great to hear y’all’s thoughts on the movie!!!!! Thank you so much for considering it for me! Love you guys! Y’all are awesome!!!! Thanks for EVERYTHING you have and do, so! 💚🫡
The Critical Drinker did a great take on this film. We all needed a film like this. It's not about how real or not real shit is, it's about entertainment. Obviously we all know a body won't stop those rounds, but it looked great in the film. 16:49
Sisu is your inner strength when you are doomed and have nothing to lose, it gives you almost supernatural powers against all odds to survive what seems impossible. You are not giving up no matter what. That is sisu. 💪🏻🇫🇮 p.s. You can activate sisu mode by shouting out loud Perkele! 💀
the throat cutting thing could have worked if he's cutting through the trachea too tho: bc typically the ''bubbles" you see is CO2 when they're exhaling under water: "When you breathe, air enters your mouth and moves into the pharynx. The air then goes down into your main airway (trachea) and into your lungs. A flap of tissue called the epiglottis sits over the top of the trachea."
in mouth to mouth, it's a little different bc you're doing it super fast. you're not really exhaling from the lungs, you're mainly using throat pressure. and mouth/throat oxygen.
One concept is that he died a long time ago, but does not know it, he just keeps going trought the motions, so the nazis are fighting a material ghost that does what he would do, except that it works due to... you know, being immortal. This could "explain" the anti-aircraft plot armor, as Sisu just does what he would do to protect himself and only get the injuries he believes he would get, until he forgets about them. Of course, its just a fun over the top movie, but I do like the supernatural angle for the lolz.
I just rewatched a movie from my youth and thought “I wonder if Sean and Kurt did a review on this? They must have… it’s a classic Marine flick…” but nope! I’d like to see you guys review Heartbreak Ridge!
Please check out Danger Close! Ranger from Vikings does a good job of commanding in the Vietnam war. The movie depicts the battles pretty realistically.
Kurt, same sentiment on Fast 10. Absolutely love the franchise but it took a turn for the worst. This episode of B&B Down is great. Watching SIsu this afternoon.
Watched this movie with my dad, inital reaction was "john wick in ww2", then wtf, then okay this is prettu awesome then finally..."if you dont use logic its awesome"

It's hard for me to believe I was so drawn into a film where the lead character has no dialogue until the last scene. Very well done!
Does anyone know what he says at the end ?
@@stephenbull2026 he asks for big bills in exchange because it will be a lot less heavy to carry (than the bags of heavy-ass gold rocks) xD
Finns don't say a lot, but do a lot. 😉
@@shkotayd9749 He asked big bills, because they are lighter than lots of smaller.
@@XtreeM_FaiL yup. A million in 100s will be a lot less in 100s than in 1s lol.

"Does he think he is immortal?"
"No, he just refuses to die."😁
He is just Finnish😂

I died laughing when he throws the land mine at the guy 😂
same my favorite scene
I watch these to watch you guys clowning more than I care about the movie review.
Same. I haven't seen more than half of these movies.
Sort of same here. I watch to see what they think is complete bs, but I also like there clowning more, if I had yo choose I would want to keep the clowning over the real commentary
i still dont even know what Sisu is about.
Brothers I LOVE Sisu , it’s so off the cuff and well shot and it doesn’t take itself serious , one of my favorites for this year
Sisu has always been 80-90% "raw courage and stoicism" and 10-20% of over-the-top legendary stories of amazing Sisu ... so I think the over-the-top actually fits the tradition of Sisu

ill check it out
It is possible to light a match by flicking it like that (as long as it's not a modern safety match). First try is a bit of a gamble though.
I have never giggled so much at such a ridiculous movie. And watching like-minded people react to it like yall made it all the better. Pure gold
I loved this movie too. So over the top. And I was happy to see Buck recognized the DShK. LOL

its a dope movie
exactly!... it's a myth based on a true story 😁😂! and it's perfect!😁😁😁
Moral of the story (however over the top that one is), never piss off a Finn because we don't give up!
I'm late to the party but I just saw this movie yesterday & it was awesome

I recommend Army Wives because is similar to the Unit but it focuses on the home front (the families left behind living on a base).
the lead role has one line in the movie..
Love the content. Your review of 13 Hours is one of my favorite. Only critique I have, is I would like to see more of the scenes in the movie than personal stories of your time in the armed forces. Thank you for your service, you have this patriots respect. God bless and God bless the USA.
I agree.
Sisu is not fully translatable. It's easier to understand if you are in the finnish mindset. It's the reason why Finland used to win over Sweden in hockey even though they were far below in skills. Truly hard people in every respect.
loving the new camera angles, keep it up
thank you!
This was a great movie. 😂😂 I loved every bit of it
This movie was so dang good. One of my favorites. I think the main character is inspired by a real life guy but the story in the movie is fictional.
I wasnt shocked to find that the same studio that produced JW produced Sisu😂
I spit my drink out about what you said about being in a LMTV , and nope it can’t be done 😂😂😂
impossible task
Who is the one greatest soldiers of greenberets? Only waffen ss man who is burried in Arlington military cemetery? That guy is Larry Thorne aka Lauri Törni, soldier of three armies. And that guy is real life badass from Finland.
He was among the first group of Green Beret's when they formed at 10th. And of that group, among the most Legendary.
The 10th SFG HQ at Fort Carson is named after him. The guy had Neutronium balls. Nobody fk'd with Larry.
So I'm a bravo, deployed with 10th mountain. Please review The Unit. It's good and bad and one of the most accurate portrayals of military life
Eeeeeey Kurt! Back again!!! Its great hes here more often again
Hey guys! I absolutely LOVE your breakdowns and all you have to say! Really have loved your channel!! I’m often in the hospital and y’all always help me get my mind off of the pain and transplants (liver) for a bit. Really appreciate you all!
Can you do a breakdown of “Special Forces”, the movie about British SF going in to rescue a reporter? It has Diane Kruger, Djimon Hounsou, Benoit Magimal. I’d love to hear what you have to say about the movie! I do apologize because it does have subtitles! But it be great to hear y’all’s thoughts on the movie!!!!! Thank you so much for considering it for me! Love you guys! Y’all are awesome!!!! Thanks for EVERYTHING you have and do, so! 💚🫡
Laughed so much at this review..... You guys rock 🤣👍👍
Come from a huge military family and they taught me that there is three only three rules in engagement: Run, hide and fight.
Not long before you guys will be Technical Advisors for movies 🤣
I remember watching this movie laughing out loud by myself. when sisu is stitching himself up screaming and the pilot is watching. Like wtf
If u watch this as a superhero film you will enjoy it much more
The Critical Drinker did a great take on this film. We all needed a film like this. It's not about how real or not real shit is, it's about entertainment. Obviously we all know a body won't stop those rounds, but it looked great in the film. 16:49
Aside from the main character is so badass. The dude also have unlimited luck 😂😂😂😂 in all life and death scenario
Sisu is your inner strength when you are doomed and have nothing to lose, it gives you almost supernatural powers against all odds to survive what seems impossible. You are not giving up no matter what. That is sisu. 💪🏻🇫🇮
p.s. You can activate sisu mode by shouting out loud Perkele! 💀
the throat cutting thing could have worked if he's cutting through the trachea too tho: bc typically the ''bubbles" you see is CO2 when they're exhaling under water: "When you breathe, air enters your mouth and moves into the pharynx. The air then goes down into your main airway (trachea) and into your lungs. A flap of tissue called the epiglottis sits over the top of the trachea."
in mouth to mouth, it's a little different bc you're doing it super fast. you're not really exhaling from the lungs, you're mainly using throat pressure. and mouth/throat oxygen.
It’s a movie!! That’s what I always hear.
8:02 throwing antitank mine like its a frisbee😅
On that ambush by the ladies, they could have pulled ropes or belts through the other side to pull the canvas on the main side... Nice One
this movie was so outrageous, i thought he was gonna start deflecting shots with his shield from the tank.
he just stares at them and the bullets whimper and run away... duhhh.
Awesome film and great breakdown by Shawn & Kurt as usual, hilarious boys 👍
Cutting the fuel lines definitely came from Jurassic World when the Indominus Rex broke loose
Remember the greatest Sniper of all time comes from Finland
One concept is that he died a long time ago, but does not know it, he just keeps going trought the motions, so the nazis are fighting a material ghost that does what he would do, except that it works due to... you know, being immortal. This could "explain" the anti-aircraft plot armor, as Sisu just does what he would do to protect himself and only get the injuries he believes he would get, until he forgets about them.
Of course, its just a fun over the top movie, but I do like the supernatural angle for the lolz.
Shout out to the smile on their faces when they watch a bad guy volunteer their life 🤣
GREAT episode!!
This movie was so cool. Complete insanity but great as F! 21:09 There's no way haha! Tried it as well, no luck 😂😂
A friend of mine told me about this movie and I was like HOLY SHIT!
Love it as always. Great episode guys!
appreciate it!
Actually Russian WWII pilot was found on swamp. Pilot was mummified in cabin like living person cause lack of oxygen and swamp water.
I just rewatched a movie from my youth and thought “I wonder if Sean and Kurt did a review on this? They must have… it’s a classic Marine flick…” but nope! I’d like to see you guys review Heartbreak Ridge!
Indeed it's like Ivanhoe meets Rambo then meets Sergio Leone
You got to do the "the covenant"
Please check out Danger Close! Ranger from Vikings does a good job of commanding in the Vietnam war. The movie depicts the battles pretty realistically.
Not one comment of him surviving being hanged? I'm disappointed. Absolute gold movie.
You may think this stuff is unbelievable, but remember Larry Thorne existed. lol
Kurt, same sentiment on Fast 10.
Absolutely love the franchise but it took a turn for the worst.
This episode of B&B Down is great.
Watching SIsu this afternoon.
To light yourself on fire just to chock your enemies…
Watched this movie with my dad, inital reaction was "john wick in ww2", then wtf, then okay this is prettu awesome then finally..."if you dont use logic its awesome"
Enjoyed the clips and Your awesome comments. But at a certain point, too much to "suspend disbelief" (but I did anyway!)
so did we lol
