If you loved The Flock, try Legend of the Fist: The Return of Chen Zhen

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 Andrew Lau Wai-Keung, and they sit in Drama / Thriller territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Flock, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Legend of the Fist: The Return of Chen Zhen is

Shanghai, 1925. Rain on the Bund. A shadow returns from France, cloaked as a businessman, but marked by the past. The dead student Chen Zhen lives again, battling occupying forces with flying fists and hidden motives. Jet Li comparisons are inevitable.
