Crazy Rich Asians (2018) - Mahjong with His Mom Scene (9/9) | Movieclips

! You can build something sure n be remembered sure !! But we’re you happy, ? Mmm that’s the question!?

This one scene had me stunned she beat her at her own game. I love this movie

Ai ai kiri kanan : lapo wong iki ngomong opo

My gf loves this film, and I right away recognized Michelle Yeoh! "That's his mom!?", I said when she first showed me! I right away let her know that Constances' character should be afraid of her!!!

The other 2 players: could we just get on to the next game? 😅

Next moment, we are missing one player, jeez

Aren't they foreigner as well?? Singapore is not their ancestral home they are economic refugees in other countries

Something I thought of the other day and I'm not entirely sure was deliberate (but given how carefully written this scene is it may well have been) is that just before this, Rachel tells Eleanor that they could speak freely in front of the two aunties at the table because "they're half-deaf and they only speak Hokkien". And then Eleanor uses a Hokkien phrase to insult Rachel. I imagine that by now Rachel has been playing with them, and maybe Kerry too since there just happened to be a seat at the table in time for Eleanor's arrival, for quite a while and they're impressed that an American plays mahjong so well. And then, given the tension between the two, I can't help but wonder if the two aunties got the gist of the conversation and disapproved of Eleanor's dismissal of Rachel since in their minds she seems like a very nice Chinese girl - even if she is American.
I dunno. It just feels very convenient that the one language the two aunties speak just so happens to be the one Eleanor borrows a turn of phrase from.

i would've taken my revenge... that's not highly of me but.. makes much better to know there is still someone who shares my pain and am not alone in this.

Surprised I don’t see any comments about the very end here. I don’t see this scene as savage either. I find it so sad and beautiful.

I cry every single time I watch Rachel’s mother at the end. The power in that stare.

I don't know the game and all i want to know is why when the other woman went to pick up the piece the mom was allowed to be like "no, mine" 😐 how does that work

so ... did she win? Not sure how this game works.

I feel this

Strange. My family, when we play mahjong, we don't normally talk this much.
I played against my mother-in-law. I always sat on her left for obvious reasons. I'm trying to let her win.
Anyone that plays mahjong enough knows why.
At the end of the 5th or 6th turn, I already knew more or less which tiles she wants.
Even my wife knows this. She's not stupid.

Ngl didn’t expect the movie to be good, but these scene was really well made

Damn, I watched this movie, somehow I saw the clip and clicked it, it still made me cry...

Pretty sure I have seen a similar scene used previously in HK cinema back in the 80s or 90s.

How is Rachel character poor? I thought she’s a professor in NYU? Lol

Love this movie I don’t know why they didn’t make a sequel

Love too heavy just throw it rechel

Self touching ain't what it used to be ...

Final rubbish scene from the movie totally portraying unrealistic sinkie lifestyle becoz singapore no have mahjong parlors at all....cheebye this is a Hongkie or Shanghai lifestyle nothing to do with Singapore

This is actually way way brilliant scene, at the beggining of the movie Rachel plays poker with a student and bluffs him into losing. She then explains she was able to win bc he is "cheap" so he was playing to avoid the most loss she then made the riskiest move so he would fold. This scene is quite the opposite, she knows Nick's mom is not cheap so she will want to win at all cost and win big- so in game theory we call it a "prisoner's dilema" her best strategy is to cooperate therefore give Nick's mom the winning piece so she would fold and she would fold as well therefore both of them win but there is no "BIG" winner. This is what made Nick's mom rethink her strategy to her dilema she was thinking this was a zero-sum game, she then realized they could BOTH WIN.

The best scene for me.

Absolutely positively love this scene and the dialogue. China’s culture vs western culture.

‘We know how to build things that last’, regardless of the plausibility argument, it’s an interesting line.

I just wish the ladies could understand them and went "OOOOOOooooooo she got you Elanor sheesh"

So who won the game?

I witnessed it

Cindy starfall cheated on me with a lot of men on her s videos google and safari

This scene is so symbolic and layered that it will go over many peoples heads first time watching.

Cut out the best part where rachael's mom gave eleanor the biggest side eye ever

Rachel Chu for the ACTUAL win...I love this scene SO much.

What does she mean by things that last? The money, the mansion and properties? Or the toxic matriarch, backstabbing aunties and sycophant “friends”?

Wait, hold up. When I saw this scene in the theater, I distinctly remember this being spoken in Mandarin with English subtitles. Why is this clip in English (and not dubbed English at that)?

Are they playing chess?

i cried so hard watching this

What I love about this movie was it was never about the inflated gap of this wealth and social statuses but the disparity of their cultural backgrounds. One is a traditional Asian while the other is an American born and raised one.

For those who don't understand mahjong, Rachel drew the winning tile for her hand and could've won right at that moment, but sacrificed the winning tile knowing Eleanor would take it to complete her hand and win. Rachel then displays her hand show that she would've won and her hand was better than Eleanor's hand.

did she win the game?

Funny thing is after all these Elanor accepted Rachel only when she got to know, how rich Rachels father is!! 😂

so did she win the game?

Nick is that mahjong piece. Could've kept it and won the game. But it was never a game to Rachel. Only what she believes is the best choice for Nick in the situation.

Cinephiles will notice that Eleanor is wearing pinstripes and intends on winning. Just like the New York Yankees.

Michelle Yeoh is now an Oscar winner. Constance Wu should be the next.

Such an epic scene.

So wait did Rachel win the mahjong game?

Same energy as Batman telling Superman in The Dark Knight Returns: In all your private moments, I want you to remember the one man who beat you.
