Except the beginning of it looked almost entirely CGI. However, I'm not a gamer, so it could have been just how it was filmed.
I rate 3-5 average, then add starts for good plot, beautiful scenery, acting, costuming, etc. The plot was plausible, just. The scenery was exquisite and the countryside was genuine, definitely. The city scenes were beautiful, but I think CGI.
The costuming was superb - particularly the Russian women, with gold, beads & lush textiles. Of course, the mongols costumes were great, but there is only so much you can do there.
There were moments of humour, romance, battle, huge armies, cleverness. Etc.
It was a good watch.
We didn't know it had English dubbing, though! It might have been less work.
