A loud, shouty and messy film set around games of table tennis, with an odious, delusional hero. What’s to like? Not a lot! Far too long at 2½ hours, it went on and on and on. There wasn’t any story development just a series of noisy scenes leading nowhere.

A tale about a loud and delusional American – no thank you.

However, Gwyneth Paltrow was delightful. She was in one of my favourite films, Hard Eight, and was also delightful in the film Sliding Doors.

Have your say! (No need for any ID!)
