in the scenes that take place in china town it's mostly cantonese.
shareI'm watching it now... and i grew up in a household that spoke both taiwanese and mandarin.
During the subtitled scenes they were speaking mandarin pretty accurately in my opinion.
Jamie Chung's chinese-american accent, however, is horrendous!! I was cringing everytime she opened her mouth.
I speak some mandarin too. But I guess because I'm american and not Chinese I understood Jamie Chung better than I did the native speaker, probably because both Chung and I have horrendous mandarin accents.
I could only catch one or two words at a time from the native speaker. But I agree, the mandarin sounded pretty accurate to me as well.
But there is no Taiwanese language; they speak Mandarin in Taiwan.

Maybe do a little research before you troll, hm?

The character Mr Leung speaks perfect Mandarin.
...a little fantastic, and fleeting, and out of reach.
What the crap are you talking about? I am a Chinese who speaks and writes Chinese. It was perfectly reasonable Chinese.
