This object turns out to be an alien creature with regenerative powers that will end up teaching important lessons to both father and son, amidst a dramatic turn of events in which Dicky is confronted to the harsh realities of life.

It is a very funny movie, set in Hong Kong, and has an English translation. It also has a very happy (family happy) ending.

M$Honestly, most Chinese language films I've seen are of the "tragic art" variety and all have intensely honest scenes/themes that make "family friendly" a tough match.

by the way... another Taiwanese movie that - in my opinion - shows an accurate picture of family life in Taiwan is Yi Yi (2000) by Edward Yang. To many it may seem boring and long, but it's a real masterpiece.

Eat Drink Man Woman is one of my favorite movies, too.
But it should have a disclaimer: DON'T WATCH IF YOU'RE HUNGRY! ;-)

I did take some time to consider this before posting... Yes there is a lesbian scene. However, it seemed very tastefully done. My husband and I are on the conservative side in our movie tastes preferring things that most people would consider harmless like romantic comedies. We both enjoyed this and I strongly recommended it to both my mother and my in-laws. So, family friendly would depend on the age of the audience. In this case it may be appropriate for in-laws but not young children.
Too bad you can't rate the comments. :))
Thumbs up.
There is a nude lesbian scene in that movie. Movie = Win. Family-friendly? Fail.
Spirited Away, Kung Fu Panda and Mulan are good animated ones, too.

CJ7 is Stephen Chow’s 2008 movie about a poor man, his son, and an alien. A heartwarming story about the effort the father puts towards giving his son a good life and especially a good education, even if it means that he has to starve. However their life change when the father finds a new “toy” for his son.
Mixed bag, but ultimately family friendly.
-edit- looks like I took too long to hit reply. Sorry for the dupe.
