九品芝麻官 Hail the Judge 1994

Pao Lung-Sing (Stephen Chow), a descendant of the famous Judge Pao Ching Tien, is a 9th degree corrupt judge (lowest degree) who changes his tune when he tries to champion a woman Chi Siu-Lin (Sharla Cheung), who was framed for killing her husband. As a result, Pao is forced to flee and through a series of events (often hilarious) becomes a 1st degree judge and comes back to wreak havoc and justice on the guilty.
