CJ7 (2008) - 1 Movie
Construction worker Ti (Stephen Chow) lives in a ramshackle shanty and scavenges everything from shoes to toys from the trash dump. Despite his state of abject poverty, the earnest, lesson-spouting Ti is determined to send his son Dicky (Xu Jiao) to a posh private elementary school. Dicky, however, is a lot more interested in playing than studying, and he'd like nothing more than a CJ1 robot dog to show up his bullying classmate. Unable to afford a CJ1, Ti brings home "CJ7", a curious rubbery green ball he found at the dump. His son isn't impressed - until the ball shows its true alien form, morphing into a little green dog whose penchant for mischief gives even Dicky a run for his money. Stephen Chow has helped launched the careers of many a starlet, and this time CJ7 co-stars Mainland newcomer Kitty Zhang and talented child actress Xu Jiao who genderbends as Chow's son. Chow was so impressed with Xu Jiao's performance, he not only has more plans in store for the budding ingenue, he's adopted her as his goddaughter. Other key comedy players include portly Stephen Chow regular Lam Chi Chung and the cuddly titular alien that serves as another testament to Chow's ability to effectively integrate state-of-the-art CGI into his films. Hands down Hong Kong's most anticipated film of 2008, Stephen Chow's sci-fi fantasy CJ7 swept into theaters across Asia in February and topped the box office with record numbers. Four years in the making, CJ7 is Chow's first film since 2004's Kung Fu Hustle and expectations are naturally sky high. Chow's last two films, Kung Fu Hustle and 2001's Shaolin Soccer, are ranked one and two on the all-time list of highest-grossing Hong Kong films, and CJ7 is quickly making its way up the rankings. In the last decade, the King of Comedy has been taking his trademark nonsense comedy, wry humor, and offbeat sentiments into new directions and genres, proving equally popular and effective behind and in front of the camera. CJ7 sees Hong Kong's favorite leading man and director entering a new stage in his inimitable career as he tackles sci-fi with this hilarious and heartwarming family-friendly fantasy feature.
