In America, it's Mickey Mouse. In France, it's "Tintin". But in Hong Kong, no comic book character is more famous or beloved than Old Master Q, otherwise known as Mr. Funny-bone. He's a Confucius-type fellow who travels about with his sidekick, Big Potato (aka Big Dumb), getting involved in all manner of charming comic mishaps …which always turn out just right. This beautifully cast, live action adaptation proved so popular that it spawned the sequel, Mr. Funnybone Strikes Again.
