This movie is set in 1950’s New York City, following the journey of Marty Mouser, a man in his young twenties aspiring to be a professional table tennis player. 

This movie seemed to grab the attention of the press and public largely. This was because of their advertising.

Some of these included an orange blimp, pop-up shops with Marty Supreme jackets and even having The Sphere is Las Vegas changed to look like an orange ping-pong ball. 

While many believed due to the summary that was given about this movie that it would mostly follow ping-pong, the film initially didn’t spark much interest. But through this advertising, especially Chalamet’s personal involvement the movie became a long awaited watch.

This movie is rated R due to some sexually explicit content and language. While it may not be one that you want to see with your parents it is a really fun watch with friends. This film moves the audience’s emotions from suspense, sadness, romance and worry. 

Throughout the two and a half hours that his movies stretches, the viewers are constantly stimulated by the different situations that main character Marty seems to get himself into.

This film combines the genres of comedy, action and romance creating a thrilling and entertaining story.
