Earlier this year, Daily Express ranked the Top 10 most underrated World War 2 films of all time.
And among the titles was a hidden gem from Finland in what many dubbed as John Wick vs the Nazis.
Having recently been added to Netflix, the action thriller debuted at No 1 on the UK film chart Top 10.
The $6 million independent film is now holding on to second place, having only been topped by the streamer’s $320 million blockbuster The Electric State.
Set during 1944’s Lapland War, Sisu follows a Finnish Army commando turned gold prospector attempting to defend himself from being robbed and murdered by a Waffen-SS platoon. Influenced by the Spaghetti Westerns of Sergio Leone and Rambo First Blood, this gory 2022 outing received critical acclaim upon release.
Sisu is streaming now on Netflix.
