Mild themes and coarse language
| Director: | Stephen Chow |
| Actor: | Stephen Chow |
Ti (Stephen Chow) is a poor father who works all day, everyday at a construction site to make sure his son Dicky Chow (Xu Jian) can attend an elite private school. Despite his father's good intentions to give his son the opportunities he never had, Dicky, with his dirty and tattered clothes and none of the "cool" toys stands out from his schoolmates like a sore thumb. Ti can't afford to buy Dicky any expensive toys and goes to the best place he knows to get new stuff for Dicky the junk yard! While out "shopping" for a new toy for his son, Ti finds a mysterious orb and brings it home for Dicky to play with. To his surprise and disbelief, the orb reveals itself to Dicky as a bizarre "pet" with extraordinary powers. Armed with his "CJ7" Dicky seizes this chance to overcome his poor background and shabby clothes and impress his fellow schoolmates for the first time in his life. But CJ7 has other ideas and when Dicky brings it to class, chaos ensues.

This was recommended on a few sites for its image quality and younger members of your family will love this movie and for an Asian to Anglo Saxon Transplant it was surprisingly good. It is syrupy cutesy with usual toilet humour and martial arts mantra.
It suffers from the traditional problems of lousy voiceovers and poor contextual treatments but if any of your family is a fan of the droll treatments that most Anime gets when it is brought to our screens (I am talking to you Aunty ABC) then they will ignore it.

This was a really touching film. It was funny, it was shocking and it was sad. I would recommend watching it in Chinese with English subtitles because the English dub is very annoying. Im sure you'll fall in love with CJ7, it's very cute. Now for some trivia, 3 of the male characters in the film are actually played by girls. Can you guess who?
