I wish the Americans would steer clear of making Medieval films. Leave them to the Europeans. It's their history & they make a pretty good fist of it when they do undertake cinematic mythology. This new film is another heavyweight effort from the impressively building Central Partnership studios. This US$10 million 'slavic fantasy' utilised the largest sets in 25 years at the once struggling Mosfilm studios. They also shot footage in the mountains of Slovakia. You'd think they'd have enough locations at home. Go figure. Bring it on... Looks impressive.
