The film was ok, spoilt in my opinion by the cruel use of trip wires to bring down the horses during the battle scenes.
My guess is that several horses most probably lost their lives in the making of this motion picture.
I thought the casting of some of the actors was quite strange Sharif was believeable in his roll as Khan, Mason and Morely as Chinese characters, come on and Eli Wallach, I was waiting for the jokes.
All in all the film was ok but could have been so much better and the battle scenes should have been supervised and sanctioned by relevant persons. The film was directed well but the casting was awful.
