Watched it the other day because of this thread for the first time in years.

Phenomenal movie.

The scene where Ben Kingsley finally gives him the award for Grandmaster, and he says "I've never been prouder of anyone in my life" is incredible.

The whole "Don't move until you see it.....he's got it" scene at the end is just so well done. Between the a-hole kid's acting, the flashback to Kingsley clearing off the chess board, "I'm sorry, dad," Kingsley's admiration and pride, Josh's inherent sweetness and offering to split the championship, "Take the draw/Move," "Good game," even the humility of the a-hole kid once he got beat, etc. It's just so well done, and a great climax.



Don't move until you see it...

The little look Josh gives the a-hole kid at 3:33 is fantastic. It's like "Okay then, a-hole, this is what you want.."
