- Sensibility: Some elements of the love-affair are a bit too picturesque, but not to the point that the story becomes unbearable.
- Cinematography: Camera work is perfect, making the film easily digestible while still providing a feast for the eyes. Production design, costuming, hair, and makeup all interplay perfectly to communicate the
changes in time, in character, and in energy.
- Energy: The soundtrack alone pushes this film to insane heights. It's worth watching just to experience the music alone, but add on top a great story and great performances and you can't look away.
- Narrative: It's sexy, it's dramatic, it's energetic, it's got everything. A tennis match is a brilliant way to tell a story of a love-triangle and the timeline structure of the story gives the film a perfect flow.
- T-Points: The film received five bonus points: one for a scene with two boys awestruck at a party, one for a hilarious story of young sexual exploration, one for a signal, one for great shots underneath and around the tennis court, and one for a perfect soundtrack pairing with the film.
This film is so good and so re-watchable. It's got such a great vibe with a story that is meaningful enough to merit seeing this thing over and over again. Stunning and unique visuals with a thumping soundtrack
make this film hum with life.
