This Hong Kong-made film is the fifth animated McDull movie (sixth film in the franchise overall). The story takes us back to McDull's beginnings. Now grown up and working as a detective under his adult name Bobby Mak, he's become sharp and observant—qualities that come in handy when he's called to investigate a death at a mansion. His deductions suggest no murder actually occurred. While everyone waits for the case to conclude, some kids show up needing entertainment, so Bobby tells them his life story. He focuses especially on his relationship with his mother and how much she meant to him. From childhood through his formative years, she was there for him—protecting him, offering guidance, being a mother. She even attempted to become a superhero, though astronaut training didn't quite work out. The film uses this as a metaphor for her illness, something difficult for young McDull to fully understand at the time. What makes the film resonate is its universal themes. The Mak family was never well-off, and watching them struggle through McDull's innocent perspective is genuinely touching. For Chinese kids growing up outside their parents' home country, it offers a window into where their families came from and what they went through.
