If you have a chance, catch Sisu on Prime before it's taken down. Made in Finland, so there's no recognizable actors, but a lot of action. Lots of Tarantino influence with over the top gore and dark humor.
Great movie on Prime

Started it a while ago. I really enjoyed it. I still need to finish.
Excellent flick, lots of action, "death row humor." Sisu is a real thing in Finland. Joe
I had a bachelor night and had seen footage of the movie come across. I decided to rent it while my wife was out with friends for the evening, she does not appreciate violent movies unless there is a proper story line, go figure. From the violent end it was full of it, I found it a bit over the top and like Rambo he is invincible while being shot at by well trained, seasoned troops. I get the whole SISU thing, he is a legend, but he is only a man.

Is it free of woke cr@p?
Unless killing nazis wholesale in intensely gruesome ways is woke, then no

Tarantino influence isn't exactly a selling point for a film.
Made myself a note to look this one up and watch it.

Not so much an influence as similarities. I was afraid some would take offense to the Tarantino reference, but I just included it because their styles are the same. Lots of gratuitous spraying blood and body parts being thrown asunder.
I especially liked the turn it took when he enlisted the ladies help and they turned the tide on their tormentors. Hell hath no fury…

Tried watching his stuff; almost all of it is horrible and tasteless. He can ruin a potentially good story in short order and usually does.

Thanks. I will see if we can catch this one.
Along this genre, and not woke, there's a good movie that I recommend, loosely based on a true WWII event called The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare. I highly recommend!

Just finished watching Sisu on Disney. It's worth a watch.
Found it awhile ago looking for something to watch. I enjoyed it for what it is...
