So unbelievable but so entertaining!

I really enjoyed watching Sisu and it made me laugh.. because it was so ridiculous but very entertaining.

A damaged WW2 Finish commando looses his family during the war and ends up gold prospecting, probably to occupy his mind, where he finds a massive vein of gold. It's the end of the war and a dishevelled and tired bunch of nazis come across the dude and discover he has gold which they intend to steal to set themselves up when the war finishes. There see multiple attempts to kill him which of course all fail and drama ensues..

What I really enjoyed were the creative ways the dude escaped from the nazis. It's totally unbelievable but really enjoyable to watch and I appreciate imaginative and unexpected scenarios which this movie excels at. It's not the typical predictable garbage most movies try to push.

I am the most critical person when watching movies and shows especially when they are meant to be realistic and fail miserably but this movie clearly isn't meant to be realistic but delivers on being highly entertaining. I also enjoy movies with different heroes and this hero is not the young typical buff good looking stereotype, he's a battle hardened mature gent with a fantastic mean look..
