Excellent score, excellent script, and the camerawork in the climax of the film (no pun intended) was crazy. You can see that Zendaya is a star. O'Connor and Faist were excellent in this as well. Shit oozes with tension throughout

Disclaimer: That motel scene went left field lol. If you can stomach that, you're in the clear the rest of the way

Sounds like it got gay


Edit: should’ve read the thread first. Suspicions confirmed
 
Tennis Temptress........well sort of

PRAISE: The sports muse thing has been done before in great movies like 1988's Bull Durham but in this story about three tennis prodigies — friends, lovers and foes — across the years through their triumphs and defeats, some shared is not on the same level as the aforementioned. What it gets right is a lot of the dynamics between the characters. Patrick Zweig (Josh O’Connor) and Art Donaldson (Mike Faist) and Zendaya as Tashi Duncan do great in their roles . They look like great players on the court and I thought writer Justin Kuritzkes and
Director Luca Guadagnino did a good job of displaying how and why we end up in certain places in life and with certain people. Sometimes it's through unforseen occurrences,certain loyalties, lust , love, or dissapointment. A lot of scenes ring true about competitions in life , jealousy and really wanting something or someone just for yourself
I liked how the movie states how mainly everything in life is a competition and goes beyond the professional sport a person is playing. I started thinking about all of the professional athletes out there and what kind of support they are getting from their spouses or significant others. This is where Zendaya gives her strongest laser focused performances she's somewhere between loving and a steely coach.

PROBLEMS : There is a lot of hype about the "threesome" that takes place in the movie but it definitely pulls back on it and adds some turns that I and likely other people who watch this movie won't get on board with or find predictable. While some of the scenes including club beat music worked at times it drowned out what the characters were saying in some scenes. I definitely didn't like the climax of the movie. I kept wondering why they just didn't let things play out in which they were with some good camera work and pauses but they added a few things that made it seem like a parody.

Scale of 1 to 10 a 7½

Yea but do you think she can play this role. I mean she still looks like a little kid. She doesn't have a body at all and build like a little girl. So who in the hell going to believe she has two guys going after her.

Sad to say, but that's all part of Hollywood's sick marketing plan.

Lowkey they're trying to appeal to pedos..........yet doing just enough to cover up their tracks and make it seem like that's not what they're really doing.
