| SYNOPSIS __________
Plot:
From Stephen Chow, the director and star of Kung Fu Hustle,
comes CJ7, a new comedy featuring Chow's trademark slapstick
antics. Ti (Stephen Chow) is a poor father who works all day,
everyday at a construction site to make sure his son Dicky
Chow (Xu Jiao) 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.
