Just watched "Challengers" on Prime. [View all]

A love triangle set in the world of professional tennis. It’s on many 10 best lists this year. I’d probably put it on my 10 worst list, if I had such a thing. The loud pulsating techno soundtrack was irritating and it overwhelmed the dialogue so frequently that I had to turn on the closed caption. The actors seemed more like models than serious thespians. Zendaya had 2 expressions throughout the film: dour and sour. There was some great cinematography but the constant shifting of time frames was frustrating. I guess I’m in the minority about this one.
