One of the best films by Luca with a complex love triangle and tennis.

4.5 out of 5 stars.

Challengers is a pretty good romantic sports drama film about two best friends who are tennis players meeting one professional Tashi (Zendaya) which they are attracted too. Tashi gets hurt and falls for one of them which causes the best friends to become enemies. She coaches and marries one of them. While the film starts with the two friends competing with each other. And the story folds in a non linear direction of the past and how there relationships are changed.

Great plot. The film moves at a fast moving pace bouncing around from one time event to another. Cast ensemble is great. Zendaya delivers. Same with Josh O Connor and Mike Faist. The music score is awesomethe tennis match in the climax has some entertaining cinematography work which is all over the place and can be dizzying but stylish.

I did not like how the film ended which left a lot to speculate on what happens next.

Overall, it is one entertaining drama that moves fast and delivers a complex love triangle.
