Leave your thoughts about CJ7.
| Eye for FilmAnton BitelThe choice between fantasy and reality is ultimately what CJ7 addresses and dramatises. Chow's film is charming, to be sure - but that is just the half of it. |
| Sin MagazineAustin KennedyThis is a wildly inventive and funny film that is a breath of fresh air. |
| Reeling ReviewsRobin CliffordYou always want to like a critter from space comedy but sometimes you just can't. CJ7 is one of those films. |
| Chicago TribuneMichael PhillipsCJ7 is roughly as grating as that “Flubber” remake. |
| Boston GlobeWesley MorrisCJ7 is precisely the 80-something minutes of delirium and cheesy special-effects you'd expect from the man responsible for the chaos of "Shaolin Soccer" and the lunacy of "Kung Fu Hustle." |
| Groucho ReviewsPeter CanaveseHe knows he's the hundredth director to rip off E.T.: he's just going to do it better, and with jokes fit for a vintage Warner Brothers cartoon. [Blu-Ray] |
| Baltimore SunMichael SragowChow is so heavy-handed at erecting wish-fulfilling or sentimental setups that each slapstick reversal becomes easy to predict. He showers heroes and villains alike with sap. |
| Chicago ReaderJ. R. JonesEven with its flaws this comedy is more interesting kids' fare than most sanitized studio releases. |
| One Guy's OpinionFrank SwietekAlmost surrealistically bad...not only fails totally to delight but is even likely to creep you out. |
| TV GuideMaitland McDonaghSignificantly gentler than [Chow's] earlier films, but equally offbeat. |
