Based on the life of writer/activist Jim Corbett, this program discusses how these tigers became endangered species and what has been done to protect them. Since the mid-19th century, Bengal Tigers were hunted by wealthy Englishmen for their teeth, fur, and organs. The result was a staggering decline in the tiger population. A hunter-turned-conservationist, Corbett wrote thrilling adventure stories that promoted the care and respect of these animals. This large-format presentation is directed by Bruce Neibaur, who also directed the IMAX film Mysteries of Egypt. ~ Andrea LeVasseur, Rovi

Ross Anthony, Hollywood Report Card
what I remember most from the film is the narrative, not the visuals.

Cherryl Dawson and Leigh Ann Palone, TheMovieChicks.com
This docudrama has a nice mix of the history of conservation, a travelogue of India that showcases the varied landscapes and magnificent architecture, and footage of tigers in the wild.

Herb Lash, Big Movie Zone
Kingdom of the Tiger is a completely engrossing Big Movie and a cure for those suffering from fear of the docudrama form.
