If you loved Young Detective Dee: Rise of the Sea Dragon, try A Better Tomorrow III: Love and Death in Saigon

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 sit in Action / Crime territory. If that's the register that drew you to Young Detective Dee: Rise of the Sea Dragon, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What A Better Tomorrow III: Love and Death in Saigon is

Rain-soaked Saigon 1973, a soldier’s white scarf whipped by wind. Mark Gor Lee slips through black-market alleys clutching forged papers and a nephew’s picture, only to find the nephew already a ghost and the city a warlord’s chessboard. Tsui Hark turns a rescue into a fever dream of betrayals and gunpowder.
