People who own tigers feel differently. Yates said, "He's like my brother, my best friend, my only friend really."

It meanders in places then rushes through a half-dozen climaxes, including one with weak visual effects (and copped from Raiders of the Lost Ark). But Zhao Fei's cinematography is ravishing, the actors bring heft and glamour to their roles, and the battle scenes have a clanging thrill to them. When the good guys and bad guys wage a group sword fight on horseback, you'll wonder why Hollywood ever thought it could get away with boring old guns...
