... The film has enough elements to be attractive even to neophytes of the sport. [Full review in Spanish]

The final match is an absolute nail-biter, reminding tennis fans how electric this sport can be.

Though it never justifies the overblown Andre Agassi quote used as its preface ("every match is a life in miniature"), the picture certainly shows how a single match can be made to feel like the world depends on it.

Both players are fascinating characters in their own right. Even more so once their stridently different temperaments come into play.

Surprisingly sombre in tone, Metz's debut scripted feature film ambitiously delves into the psychology of these two men, and that of elite sportspeople in general ... Borg's crisis of confidence and McEnroe's arrogance result in two unlikeable leads.

Fails to turn its title characters into three-dimensional people, leaning into their public personas instead of sketching in the details that would make them feel genuine.

What we're left with is a staid little movie that races around the court and rallies itself to exhaustion, a historical drama that enshrines the narrative underpinnings of all great sports stories without doing anything to upend them.

The casting is inspired.

McEnroe's "unsportsmanlike behaviour" is a no-brainer fit for LaBeouf, who attacks the tennis enfant terrible's profanity-filled, racket-throwing antics with gusto.

It's a sports movie for masochistic, vainglorious athletes.
November 12, 2017
A compelling and concentrated drama that doesn't waste a frame.

Game, set and almost a great movie.
