An exploitation film that struggles to hold its intended tone.

What 'A Knight's Tale'...salvaged with undeniable charm, here seems to be presented as a desperate attempt to please Guy Ritchie fans eager to end up up to their necks in mud, blood, and phrases more or less cut down. [Full review in Spanish]

Rated: 3/5

The result is a tonally messy work with a smattering of decent performances

Stockholm Bloodbath‘s essential flaw [is that] the film is all emptiness — of style, character, and topical discourse — masquerading as substance, and quite unconvincingly at that.

Next Best Picture

On the surface, “Stockholm Bloodbath” may seem like just another film about the ambitions of men and the temptations of vengeance, but what makes it really worthwhile is how it upends expectations.

Rated: 6/10

Cinemalogue

Spectacle overwhelms substance in this blood-soaked war epic, which has style and attitude to spare but little underlying character or emotional depth to make us care.

This is probably the best Swedish film ever made. I would give it five stars if it wasn't perhaps a tiny bit too long: Less talking, more action please! In any case, every person who had to read about the Stockholm bloodbath in school needs to see it. We knew it was bloody, yes, but had no idea how much fun it was. 🍿

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

Some of the acting was fine, but what killed it for me was the way the baddies were chewing on the scenery. It could be graphic at times and I know that history is graphic I feel like the point could have been proven without some of the gore and the sexual assault scene.

Could be a good movie if they would decide on one convention. It has a really good moment's but in general tires to be too much at a time. Slapstick comedy, drama, Tarantino. Please pick one.

The climax came late, it was not as good a climax as one could've hoped. Although the movie was not great, it was not too bad. Worth a watch but maybe when it comes to a streaming service
