Reception

Fredrik Strage called Blodsbröder a "total collapse" ("totalkollaps") in a review in Dagens Nyheter.{{cite news |last1=Strage |first1=Fredrik |title=Totalkollaps för Blodsbröder |work=Dagens Nyheter |date=1 December 2005}} Esbjörn Guwallius, writing for Swedish film site film.nu, described it as a "positive surprise", while noting that many would probably call it a fiasco.{{cite news |last1=Guwallius |first1=Esbjörn |title=Blodsbröder en positiv överraskning |url=https://film.nu/filmrecensioner/blodsbroder/12627697.film |access-date=22 July 2021 |date=1 December 2005 |language=Swedish}} Writing for Svenska Dagbladet, Jeanette Gentele called it "exciting, well executed and a little bit amusing" ("spännande och välgjord och även litet rolig") while Jan-Olov Andersson called it "better than expected" in Aftonbladet.{{cite news |last1=Andersson |first1=Jan-Olov |title=Bättre än väntat |url=https://www.aftonbladet.se/nojesbladet/film/a/m6Ppmp/battre-an-vantat |access-date=22 July 2021 |work=Aftonbladet |date=2 December 2005 |language=Swedish}}
