Same screenwriter & director. It has the same dark and gritty feel to it. The fight scenes are fairly realistic in both, and life unfortunately is shown to be on the cheaper side for some characters but both seem to have factions fighting for *something.* Gold is involved in both as well as some kickass women and other mysteries.
Both involve a hunt for treasure and possible gold. They also share government officials who get dragged into this treasure hunt, some of whom immediately start to regret how ill-informed and badly respected they're finding themselves out to be. There is also a relentlessly doggedly determined yet always in ill health character in both that you may like but question their methods lol. Both also share a ragged group of bandits (?) whose number slowly dwindles as they try to kill the others yet end up dying themselves lol.
Full of intelligence, wit, grit, impressive fight scenes, detailed costumes, real locations, and a host of unique characters — both dramas will leave you fulfilled.
