The Taking of Tiger Mountain is a breath of fresh air in a genre stale and stiff from too many stuffy, pompous party-approved history yawns. Tsui fills his film with shootouts, explosions, ski stunts, animal attacks and even an extended sequence in which our hero takes a crap. Brimming with energy, action and genuinely interesting events from Chinese history, Tsui Hark has delivered an unashamedly entertaining holiday romp.I'm really looking forward to checking it out, and now you can, too!
