Swedish v Russian Great Northern War battle scene

This literally blew me away. What is this? Watch it and tell me that you are not impressed. It's a battle scene from a movie - Poltava by the look of it - very well shot - extremely high budget -
the Swedes are doing the Gå På thing....I need to know more about it!! OK I have found out - it's a movie Слуга государев
http://www.slugagosudarev.com/ - set in 1709 - English title The Sovereign's Servant and it's a tale of two Frenchmen who are sent into the camps of Peter the Great and Charles XII. Imdb says 'Worthy of a look for those interested in battle scenes and historical accuracy'. We're there dude. Prop musket for sale - wonder if there are any more props on the market?
