Zendaya, Josh O’Connor, and Mike Faist form the season’s most seductive triangle.
Challengers, written by Justin Kuritzkes, is something of a souped-up fantasy in which the rigorous work of being a professional athlete is, at nearly every turn, amiably offset by a languid air of summery possibility. There is grit and anger and all kinds of professional envy, sure. But that tension is easily broken by a snappy conversation, by a witty bit of flirting. These elite, hard-driving machines are also having a lot of fun. And thus, so do we. For a while, anyway.
What gets lost a little in that shuffle is Tashi, whose dreams are derailed by an injury and who gradually becomes a tally mark on Art and Patrick’s scoreboard. Granted, she is the most important tally mark—but Challengers nonetheless turns a formidable character into something of an object by the end. Challengers isn’t exactly “bros before hoes.” It’s too humane and sophisticated a film for that. But it would have been nice to see Tashi develop alongside the two men so hungrily in her orbit.
