Editor’s note: A brief editor’s note on Challengers (2024): A confident blend of Drama, Romance, focused more on tone than spectacle. With Luca Guadagnino at the helm, the film feels purposeful and well-paced. Performances (especially Zendaya, Mike Faist, Josh O'Connor) give the story human stakes. The 2h 12m runtime suits the material; scenes land without dragging. Solid if imperfect—its strengths outweigh a few rough edges. The marketing line “Her game. Her rules.” isn’t just flair; it’s fairly accurate. Worth a watch for the craft alone, even beyond the genre appeal.
