An angry and disjointed comedy on the dark side of urban living in Taipei, where greed becomes the accepted norm in society.

Audience Reviews for Mahjong

Nov 12, 2011Yang envisions Taipei this time as a perfectly spherical onion with all of its layers, the bad smell of crime and insecurity, the tears in the characters, the multiracial collage it forms and the background of each individual finding its course interrupted by the constant interferences of others. We go deeper, towards the onion's core each minute Yang tells us something, like a rare hybrid between <i>I Vitelloni</i> (1953) and <i>Mean Streets</i> (1973), until the cataclysmic finale. 97/100Edgar C Super Reviewer

Nov 19, 2008Not necessarily a victorious effort for all the protagonists,the feeling of boredom,reckless rebellion and oh-so comedic attention is what makes us get involved with this mosaic of intertwined events in Taipei.Superb performances from all the cast with Congsheng standing out,Yang is penetrative in the simplicity of the city's natural flow that we almost become part of its heat and bright lights.Dimitris S Super Reviewer
