If you loved Seven Swords, try Once Upon a Time in China
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by Tsui Hark, and they both carry the epic mood tag, and they sit in Action / Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Seven Swords, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Once Upon a Time in China is
You're Wong Fei-Hung in Canton. Western powers encroach. Aunt Yee comes home changed, and then loyalties fracture along new fault lines. Tsui Hark's direction is a furious riposte. The film ponders cultural collision.
