Review by kosmasp

No pun intended - some movies hit you the right way, some do not. And this one ... I assume most will either be super excited about it, others will be super annoyed by it. The trailer probably made the movie look differently. And while I try to avoid watching trailers ... well I had no choice but to see it - tough to look away when you sit in a cinema.

Anyway, the being different than one thinks is a good, but maybe also a bad thing. There are many ingredients that should make this a movie that hits it right out of the park (which would be more of a baseball term, but wait for it) ... yet it seems to fail and hit the net (there you go with the tennis pun).

The which one is yours (and I may not be talking about the tennis racket here) and many other more subtle things (you said that) ... and many ... many indications that we as viewers can put together to get a picture of things way before the movie started ... those things are really well done ... but funnily enough not ...enough to be super convincing.

There is history - and there is her story ... and their story in this case too. The movie does not make a big fuss about the relationship (especially the past one) ... but you have to wonder if there was an elaborate plan after all? Well you can decide that - and in the meantime really hate the main character for doing almost everything one shouldn't be doing - even things he has been explicitly told not to do (watch out what you tell them - there is a witness) ... so while there is mystery ... the bigger mystery remains: where is this supposed to be going? Or him? Or them of course ... not sure if ... a character finally put two and two together and acted upon it ... I just know that it did not feel as satisfying as it should ... or I thought it should ...
