Which proves to be a good move, injecting a spot of interest into the movie - I, for one, struggled with the second entry - and allowing a mishmash of history and fact to play out on screen.
This also has a shocking moment about roughly 2/3rds of the way through, during the period of the movie in the trenches that almost feels like it belongs to a different film altogether.
It also has an absolutely bonkers fight scene involving Rasputin: it's a pity, I feel, that he does not have a larger role than he does!
