Yeah Chinese is hard to understand when spoken really fast and/or with slangs. I can understand it pretty well and speak a lot of it but I have a hard time with TV and movies, especially with the news.

I don't know any Chinese or anything, but if you can speak it at your own pace, try watching a movie over and over a few times, eventually you'll end up catching on and won't need the subtitles.

You might not pick up on everything at once, but I'm sure over time your skills will improve
