Along Comes the Tiger a kung-fu version of Sergio Leone's iconic spaghetti Western Once Upon a Time in the West is one of the forgotten classics of old-school Hong Kong cinema. Martial arts legend Wang Tao stars as a righteous fighter who defends a village that's being terrorized by a ruthless gang called the Black Dragon Society.

Wong Tao takes center stage with, more or less, the Charles Bronson role. Ah Yan or ‟Miracle Man‟ is a mute, revenge-seeking martial artist who saw his father hanged by a vicious, hunchbacked baddie, The Black Dragon (Tommy Lee).

Thats really it in terms of a connection to Once Upon a Time in the West, just the hanging flashbacks and the duo versus one bad guy story. No Westward expansion, land grabbing plotline.
So, with that aspect gone, you don't get a juicy female role. Instead of Claudia Cardinale you get a little wisecracking street kid (Chi Kuang Lung), which, in my book, is hardly a suitable replacement.
The villain is stock, kung fu bad guy, which I guess is the kung fu version of a near mythically evil, gang leading gunslinger.

Miracle Man makes his way to different members of the Black Dragon's Society of underworld cronies, offing them one-by-one, working his way up to fight the big guy. First up is a obsessive compulsive, germ phobic, bald bruiser, then a gang of beauties who run a casino, a kind of no-background guy, and a deadly duo of main henchmen.
The film actually tries to generate some sympathy for at least two of the villains, the main casino babe and the nondescript guy, who's wife actually does a good job begging for her baddie hubbies life.
Along the way Miracle Man befriends the street kid and gets aid from the Man in White, but they are just satellite distractions to his single-minded goal of vengeance.
