Moscow is recorded as a filming location for 127 productions. Wikidata records these shoots at town level: somewhere in Moscow, rather than at one identified spot. Wikipedia names it for 52 more. 1 video game is also set here.

32 productions were filmed at 144 places inside Moscow rather than at Moscow itself: listed below, each with the place it was shot.

“The film was shot in reverse order of its settings: some portions of the car chase and the film's ending were shot in Moscow, then most of the rest of the film was shot in and around Berlin, and the opening scenes in Goa, India were filmed last.”

Set here, per Wikipedia

Games whose English Wikipedia article says they are set in Moscow, where Wikidata’s narrative-location statement stops at the country. Still a setting and not a shoot, and still a sentence rather than a statement: two steps from the strongest evidence on this atlas, and labelled at both.
