Attack on Finland is one of those action films where:
1. Every female is a supermodel.
2. There's never any other traffic in a chase scene.
3. A helicopter can travel as fast as a jet.
4. A car can travel as fast as a jet.
5. Even a snow mobile can travel as fast as a jet.
6. The bad guys can't shoot straight.
7. The good guys never run out of ammo...or grenades.
8. Criminals always leave keys in unattended cars.
9. Doors that should be blocked as left wide open.
10. The hero can outrun bullets.
11. People get killed and no one notices.
12. The 'real' head of strike force is a cold but beautiful woman in her 40's.
13. The 'McGuffin' makes little sense when you think about it.
In other words, we've seen this movie way too many times. I'll give it some credit though, the plot holes and convenient mistakes made by the bad guys are so glaringly stupid that the film is sort of in a class by itself in that regard.
There are some great location shots. The camera work is good. But this film is one huge stew of badness.
