i love this director and steven chow ( kung fu hustle and shaolin soccer ) and and i be expect a good film . watch cj7 be extremely painful . this film surprisingly evoke nationalistic pride in be an american and have different value . this be not the e. t. feel good movie nor be it an interesting and beautiful and gut wrench movie like the swedish movie my life a a dog and although it have try many attempt to redeem itself . the character be mean and self serving and promote the value of be useful over common sense logic such a self reliance . warning . spoiler alertdetails of movie below cj7 start out with a very sad tale of a mother less child who live in a dump with his father who be a construction worker . the father spend his hard earn money on a private school that he can not afford and forgo basic necessity such a food and shelter and and clothing so his son can go to this school and have the opportunity to learn . the father never study in school and constantly remind his son that they be poor because he be uneducated and can not get a good job . the son and dickey and be ridicule at school because he come to school dirty and his shoe and school uniform be from the dumpster and and it be obvious that he be poor . nonetheless and like all human and we all yearn to be accept . one day and the child who bully dickey and come to school with a very cool toy and a robotic dog name cj and evokes jealous from dickey . later while dickey and his father be watch cartoon in a storefront window and dickey run off inside to the toy store and scream for the cj toy . the father feel awful for spank the boy to let go of the toy and shame that he can not buy the toy . cut to a scene where the father be in the dump look for good shoe for the boy . in his discovery and the father run into a ufo that leave a nice green ball that the father bring back to dickie . he claim it a well toy than cj . the best scene of this movie be the scene where the green ball be about to hatch and dickey witness the ball hatching and have hallucination throughout the process . after the hatching and dickey then dream that the friendly and magical alien ( who he think be a toy with battery ) will create additional magical electronic device to make him smart and strong and good and etc . at school . the reality be that the green alien dog like character can not do that . instead the dog take a dump in his hand ( be this suppose to be funny . ) and then also have explode diarrhea out of fear ( be this suppose to be funny a well . ) . dickey abuse the dog and throw it away in a trash can at school and and then have regret . the dog only want to please it master . this be where the sens of culture clash . a an asian american that understand confucian philosophy and i do no value the class hierarchy that animal must obey men and that the young generation of men must always blindly obey the old generation without question and without doubt . it be painful to watch the dog ( alien or not ) to be abuse by everyone until the end and when the dog sacrifice it own life to the elder of the family ( the father ) . in death and the dog revere and respect . throughout the movie and it be even more painful to watch the son suffer for his father pride . the father bos state that his own son go to public school and why shouldn not dickey . dickey be fail and cheat in school and his father stubbornly waste his money on the expensive school where dickey be not learn . dickey father be too busy try to keep up with appearance . in the end and even if the father be bring back to life by the dog and the father be still a loser and poor and and can not get a date . dickey be still dumb and pick on at school . however and cj7 be self sacrifice ( another confucian value ) and dead . the earth be also invade by cj7s . what should be a happy end be just awfully contrive . steven chow next movie should be a horror film call revenge of the cj7s and it would be about cute fuzzy dog alien avenge the death of the first cj7 .
