Hail The Judge (1994) 九品芝麻官 白面包青天 Director: Wong Jing Starring: Stephen Chow, Ng Man Tat, Cheung Man A nicely wrought judicial procedural full of trademark Stephen Chow/Wong Jing wackiness, with the whole Chow crew on board. Chow plays a corrupt descendant of the famous Judge Pao, who's hated by his townspeople until his just nature is brought out by the plight of Cheung Man, a newlywed who's the sole survivor of a massacre. Nice performances, and an almost believable turning-of-the-tale by Chow, acting as judge, jury, detective, and executioner. Good stuff for Chow fans, though you'll wince at the abuse that Cheung Man puts up with. DVD: List Price: US $17.95
