THERE’S concern that Young Detective Dee: Rise Of The Sea Dragon, a prequel to Hong Kong director Tsui Hark’s 2010 hit Detective Dee And The Mystery Of The Phantom Flame, will be misunderstood by film critics in Asia simply because it’s a commercial hit in a genre (period kung fu films) that’s a dime a dozen over here. When you add the fact that both are also very fun films, worlds away from the more “serious” and artier films by the likes of Zhang Yimou or Wong Kar Wai, then you have the potential for a film to be grossly underrated.
