Reviews

Timothee Chalamet triumphs in Josh Safdie’s character-rich ‘Rocky’ of ping pong movies.
Deadline
This genre-defying original is an exhilarating sports comedy, a scrappy character study, and a thrumming evocation of early ‘50s New York City.
The Hollywood Reporter
Josh Safdie and Ronald Bronstein come away with one of the year’s few masterpieces.
Variety
Timothee Chalamet’s legendary performance anchors an exhilarating American epic about the true cost of greatness.
