Second Chance Cinema explores the movies that either the critics panned, the audience ignored, or both. Whether these movies came out before their time or after, hosts MC and Spro believe that they deserve a second look. Especially with all the crap Hollywood is producing now, perhaps we should find our entertainment today- in the hidden gems of yesterday.

In this episode of Second Chance Cinema, Matt and MC take on Sisu (2023), the Finnish action-thriller where one man’s unbreakable will—and a whole lot of sharp objects—stand between him and a Nazi death squad. Recommended by filmmaker Geoff Wolfe (Outbreak, 2024), Sisu gives us brutal, over-the-top violence shot with stunning cinematic beauty, a near-silent protagonist who feels more myth than man, and a story that embodies the Finnish spirit of resilience. We explore its pulp roots, its grindhouse energy, and why this stripped-down style of action hits harder than most modern blockbusters.
