Just watched the movie this afternoon. IMHO, I find it a good movie. Obviously there will be fans who support / critic the movie no matter how good / bad it is. After all, we are talking about Stephen Chow's movie here.

The one point that I like about this movie is the element of filial piety. I think this is the first Stephen Chow movie that put so much emphasize on filial piety.

I have forgotten where but I did read somewhere that this movie is intended for poor children in China. As you can see, his nagging did put some weight on being poor is not a crime.

All in all, I would recommend this movie to my friend.
