Featured reviews
If you go in to the movies expecting a historically correct depiction of the events, you will obviously be disappointed. If you are looking for a fun time watching a more "splattery" and fun take of the events you will be fine.
The movie does not take itself serious, so neither should you. Some of the criticism is on point in that it stops being the "Tarantino" type of movie that it starts out as. It slows down a bit and drags on during the second half and some scenes could just have been cut to keep the pace of the movie going. That would my biggest gripe about this film, that is slows down. But, I'm fine with it.
It's a fun watch and worth a ticket.

I deeply regret spending my money on this stupid (CENSORED!) !!
What a disapointment!!!
Technically using this rating system I can't give this movie less than one star - no stars at all is more likely my honest opinion!!!
So be it - hence the single star goes to the actors, who to my opinion generally all performed well.
First and foremost Claes Bang and Mikkel Boe Følsgaard, who always perform absolutely fantastic!
NOT all the blood an violence - I've seen worse than that! - but the absolutely failed and foolish look-a-like mix of Game of Thrones, Tolkien and Tarantino into a weird childish Marvel universe made me have a disgusting taste of my breakfast a second time for today!
The costume designers and choreographers of the dancing scenes...oh no!! They should be the ones to experience .....a bloodbath!!

Were they joking about this historical moment? Queen Kristina taking a girls SPA , while danish king attacks Stockholm? Native american as kings knight? Jokes like some of this did REALLY happened, yes we know. Comic book presentation of characters. Just did not feel serious, Come on, could be so much better with just the real story and native language swedish and danish and no stupid jokes and sarcasm. Walked out of the cinema at the end. How did the movie end? All the bad guys on the list dead? Girls with archers saved Sweden ? The Pope punished king Kristian? Danish army went home and never came back?
... for if this is what hell feels like, and by this, I mean watching this movie, then I'll promise I won't ever sin again.
Watching this from start to finish is pure agony. The movie does not know what it wants to be. Is it a comedy? Is it a drama? Is it gore? Is it historical? Is it fiction? We don't know, be because the movie wants to be all of these things and none of it simultaneously, in a regurgitating blending that makes no sense making it difficult to take it seriously.
The acting doesn't help, which it is very unconvincing and at times upsetting by how bad it is.
What is nice though, with the exception of a few scenes, are the effects and overall cinematography. It is clear they they spend much more time and money on that, than in acting or scripting.
Not reccomeneed, at all!
Please, dear directors and what not, do proper screen testings and quality assurance before producing or releasing your movies and spare us poor viewers the agony of sitting through your self indulging productions!

Had been looking forward to watching this but was sadly disappointed. I reckon this movie should be referred to as being "inspired" by historic events as following the actual historical story is very very thin. It could have been good and certainly with the list of known actors, what could possibly go wrong - well something apparently could. And whats with the modern music and dance in the middle of the movie ?? All in all I would say that the movie is not to be watched for historic accuracy but if you wish to see a rather weird and not very well put together movie to have something to do for a few hours then go ahead.
Did you know
- GoofsThe main characters are two women with the surname "Eriksson". In the 16th century most of the population of Sweden, including nobility, used patronymic surnames. A person would have their father's name and the suffix "son" (son) if a man and "dotter" (daughter). The use of former patronymics as a family name only started to occur in the late 18th century and only became widespread in the 19th.
