AntiheroMain character is nicely imagined, as a man who is not good with people or showing his feelings and through meeting people and traveling all around China learns where he was wrong. It has a few nice scenes (village feast scene was really great). The plot has few small twists, to keep the movie going,Created on 12/2/2012
