McDull: So mother has been using the dictionary? But why is she writing in English? The letter is short. Mother must have translated it word by word. I use the machine to turn it back into Chinese. It is addressed to the Olympic Committee Chairman. "Dear Chairman: How are you? I am fine. You like bun? I like bun! We Hong Kong people here love bun. Buns of all sort.

First animated feature I've seen from HK, and hopefully not the last. Brilliant and unconventional, with an amazingly whimsical style of narrated recalled episodes interwoven with introspective investigations and loads of imaginative tirades. Wonderful mix of styles and techniques in the rendering, covering pretty much the full gamut of potential animation disciplines. Great comic writing, lovely recurrent jokes, terrific voice talent and really excellent songs, especially the one about tasio bau (steamed pork buns). Excellent for the kids, heck, the whole family! Really smart stuff! And no, I'm not biased just because my favorite female comedian Sandra Kwan-Yue Ng is one of the voice talents in this. ;)
