Sisu: Road to Revenge starts off with great reviews<\/p>\n
Written and directed by Jalmari Helander, Sisu 2 sees\u00a0Jorma Tommila reprise his role as the ex-Finnish army veteran Aatami Korpi. The sequel follows the journey of Korpi, who returns to the house where his family was brutally murdered during World War 2 in order to dismantle it. However, the Red Army general, who assassinated Korpi\u2019s family, soon learns about the former commander\u2019s return, resulting in a high-octane, cross-country pursuit.<\/p>\n
Rocco T. Thompson of Slant Magazine<\/a> praised Sisu 2\u2019s intense action sequences in his review, writing, \u201cMuch of Road to Revenge plays like a spectacularly gory silent film, with Aatami taking out scores of Red Army soldiers in action scenes that are as inventive as they are incredibly funny.\u201d<\/p>\n Loud and Clear Reviews<\/a>\u2018 Roberto Tyler Ortiz shared a similar sentiment for the Sisu sequel, stating, \u201cSometimes all you want from a movie is pure, unapologetic carnage, and Sisu: Road to Revenge delivers that in spades.\u201d<\/p>\n Dexerto<\/a>\u2018s Chris Tilly lauded the \u201cwall-to-wall action and consistently creative kills\u201d of the film. He then highlighted the strong emotional core of Sisu 2, stating that \u201cthe hero\u2019s personal journey carries a powerful message about the futility of war.\u201d<\/p>\n Meanwhile, Matt Donato of IGN Movies<\/a> described Road to Revenge as a \u201cpost-WWII blend of Mad Max: Fury Road and a Fast & Furious sequel,\u201d adding that it provides a \u201cludicrous and punishing take on the same fantastic action-forward indulgence as its predecessor.\u201d<\/p>\n Sisu: Road to Revenge Rotten Tomatoes score is even better than Part 1<\/p>\n The excellent early reviews for Sisu: Road to Revenge have also led to the sequel opening to a perfect Rotten Tomatoes<\/a> score of 100%. As such, the follow-up edition to Jalmari Helander\u2019s 2022 film has managed to surpass the Rotten Tomatoes score of the original Sisu<\/a> feature, which stands at an impressive 94%. With Road to Revenge currently on track to premiere on the big screen on November 21, 2025, it will be interesting to see if it can also overshadow the 88% audience score of its predecessor.<\/p>\n Originally reported by Apoorv Rastogi on ComingSoon<\/a>.<\/p>\n The post R-Rated Action Movie Sequel Starts With Stellar Reviews & Perfect RT Score<\/a> appeared first on Mandatory<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Yet to hit theaters in the States, Sisu: Road to Revenge has already garnered rave reviews from critics,…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":183216,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[52],"tags":[108042,88,53554,206,108041,17108,82858],"class_list":{"0":"post-183215","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-movies","8":"tag-aatami-korpi","9":"tag-entertainment","10":"tag-jalmari-helander","11":"tag-movies","12":"tag-red-army","13":"tag-rotten-tomatoes","14":"tag-sisu"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/183215","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=183215"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/183215\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/183216"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=183215"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=183215"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=183215"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
