Par that it's a waste of time to do something unless you earn some sort of achievement from it. However, nowadays, an increasing amount of young Chinese are beginning to realize that joy can be found by just taking part in an activity they love. This may be one of the reasons for the torrential applause that came from the audience after the advanced screening of the film I attended in Beijing Wednesday.
"I wouldn't have had any expectations for the film if it weren't for the fact that my favorite star Uncle Wolf (Hugh Jackman's nickname in China) was in it."
Another distinguishing feature of the film is that the lead character is portrayed as being not too bright. Now that we are used to heroes who are smart like Tony Stark or quick witted like Wade Wilson, Edwards runs quite contrary to typical portrayals of a "hero."
