If he doesn't say anything, Daben's daily performance is that he doesn't have autism, just an ordinary person who doesn't like to talk, and given his special identity that he often intersects with big people with backgrounds, this kind of silence is more reasonable. So you say he's playing Bruce Wayne, and I'm okay with that.
Imagine if Daben was a man who was trained strictly by his military father since he was a child, and grew up to become an accountant because of his superb talent for numbers. His numbers, his agility, he was audited, he found a problem, he fought back in self-defense. The development of the story has nothing to do with autism. The sensory stimulation therapy at ten o'clock every night is not so much a mind massage of Daben as it is an imposed impression on the audience.
The only thing that didn't seem to be ruthless was that he found a loophole after a day's calculations, and he discussed technical issues with Dana like a child, and this kind of joy with a sense of achievement was not ruthless, but also not autistic.
Therefore, the theme of autism, which runs through the whole film, seems a bit imposed. At the end of the film, when it is revealed that the character of Batman's butler is also autistic, it seems that the purpose is too obvious.
People call autistic children children from the stars, because they are by no means lower in intelligence than ordinary children, and even many autistic children have high IQs, but their hearts are closed in a box, which is difficult to open. For the adult world, IQ alone is not enough, so it is not true that autistic people can play around with others. So this film is actually just using the word autism to act as an action film.
