Filmed in Hong Kong, The Family is little more than a string of anecdotes tied together by the personalities of the leading characters. Said characters are members of a very close-knit family, who seemingly subsist on jokes. They play pranks on each other, laugh at the world around them, and in general have a corking good time. The dialogue is in Cantonese, but monolingual movie fans should be able to get the picture's drift. It is superfluous to add that this The Family bears no relation to another 1987 release from Italy, also titled The Family. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

In a stock teen drama with a twist, the adult hero is Hoi Sunkuai (Raymond Wong) a teacher at an all-girls school -- and an incarnation of the "Happy Ghost" Zhu Ganzhun who has supernatural powers. Hoi's problems start when a trio of student tricksters are out to do him wrong, just for the fun of it. After a miscalculated use of his special powers, he is called on the carpet in the headmistress's office -- and is immediately smitten with her. But his future is set when other mishaps get him fired. Now his only hope of reinstatement lies in the trio of culprits that got him into trouble in the first place.
