AN INSPECTOR CALLS is undoubtedly the oddest adaptation of the J.B. Priestley play you'll ever watch, a 2015 Hong Kong comedy that takes the broadest of approaches to the material, shall we say. Louis Koo and Eric Tsang head up an enthusiastic cast who explore the story's criticism of capitalism and championing of socialist causes; essentially this is a series of linked vignettes themed around a bizarre wealthy family. The surrealistic elements (a miniture girl, the singing Donnie Yens) are a nice touch, but overall I found this a hit-or-miss affair.
