I haven't been this pumped for tennis since my Wii Sports days, but Zendaya truly aced her performance in this film. Every outfit she rocked had me cheering like I was courtside. "Challengers" serves up some intense scenes with a smash portrayal and clever foreshadowing.
The movie cleverly amps up the drama, romance, and betrayal, using music and camera angles to really amplify the on-screen action.
My favorite part?
The tennis match that had me glued to my seat from start to finish. The camera work during the match was like watching a rally-back and forth, capturing every thrilling moment. I was tossing my popcorn in the air in excitement!
The film dives into the highs and lows of the athlete lifestyle, featuring a generational talent facing unexpected challenges, a once-promising player dealing with setbacks, and another player struggling to reach their potential while all battling for love .
I just had the revelation that "Challengers" cleverly mirrors a tennis match, with each character (Art and Patrick) volleying back and forth in their affections for Tashi. One gains the advantage of love, while the other experiences a breakdown. And of course, there's plenty of romantic rallying between them. Which increases my rating.
Even if tennis isn't your thing, "Challengers" packs a punch with its mix of drama, suspense, and thrilling tennis action. This movie is definitely one of the best of 2024-game, set, match!
