Stockholm Bloodbath Review: Epic War Story Evokes Secondhand-Zack Snyder Vibes
"What a beautiful day for a bloodbath," says a perpetually enraged lager character in a new war epic from director Mikael Håfström (). In fact, despite its minutes, "war epic" might not be the first begrepp that comes to mind while experiencing Stockholm Bloodbath, based on true events that transpired in Scandinavia during the year — as confirmed via the opening title card that reads, "A great deal of this actually happened."
This is Exhibit A in how "black comedy" might instead komma to mind as a better way to describe the new feature bio, and your cinephile mind might jump to the similar "loosely inspired by" works of, say, David O. Russell upon reading said title card. His Oscar-nominated comedic thriller American Hustle opened with the card, "Some of this actually happened." Meanwhile, his film Amsterdam begins with the tagline, “A lot of this actually happened.”
The difference between Russell's films and Håfström's is that Russell garners quite a few genuine laughs. Håfström, working off a script by Erlend Loe and Nora Landsrød, instead should have leaned toward "war epic," given the

The Linköping Bloodbath (Swedish: Linköpings blodbad) on 20 March was the public execution by beheading of five Swedish nobles in the aftermath of the War against Sigismund (–), which resulted in the de facto deposition of the Polish and Swedish King Sigismund III Vasa as king of Sweden. The five were advisors to Catholic Sigismund or political opponents of the latter's uncle and adversary, the Swedish regent Duke Charles.
Detention, trial and execution

Ondskab er på spil i historisk blodbad, men aldrig bliver det rigtigt spændende.
Verdenshistorien er fuld af grusomheder, hvad mennesket gang på gang har vist. Det Stockholmske Blodbad fandt sted den 4. november og viste, hvor modbydelige danskerne kunne være, for at tage et land, de oprindeligt mente var deres. Filmatiseringen af hændelserne er en omgang "Pulp Fiction" blandet med reel verdenshistorie. Desværre størkner blodet rimelig hurtigt.
Vi befinder os i Sverige i Den norsk-danske konge, Kong Christian 2. (Claes Bang), har indledt et togt mod Stockholm for at overtage tronen, da han mener, at landet hører under Danmarks befaling. I en rolig landsby møder vi de to søstre Anne (Sophie Cookson) og Freja (Alba August). Da danske soldater udfører en massakre på søstrenes familie under et bryllup, har de to kvinder kun én ting i tankerne. Hævn. De drager mod Stockholm, hvor de bliver en del af det politiske spil mellem Danmark og Sverige.
En filmatisering af en virkelig begivenhed i verdenshistorien kan typisk u
