first of all and the battle of poltava be very far from the center of this movie and so the international title be very misleading . second and the story suck . big time . two french noble men and one on the russian side and one on the swedish side and just for them to meet and settle at the end . ridiculous . all the foreign character be play by russian actor and and the foreign language be do by voice over and which be do really bad by the way . the clothing be historical incorrect and with the officer on both side look like the napoleonic offer during waterloo . i guess oleg ryaskov get some inspiration from sergei bondarchuk waterloo . except there be more than 100 year apart from these two battle . and for example and the swedish attack wasn not lead by karl xii ( because he be wound and couldn not lead sweden in battle ) and it be lead by carl gustaf rehnskiöld . i could go on and on about historical incorrectness . the sound effect be the same throughout the movie . there be this exact same sound every time someone stab another and and the gun all sound the same . this be not a movie worth watch in my opinion .
