Our take
An obsessive table-tennis hustler drives this M-rated character study. Nonstop strong language, multiple sex scenes, gun threats, a stabbing, bloody injury and abrasive humor including period slurs appear. Mature teens may appreciate the craft; younger viewers will find the tone loud and adult.
Uplifting themes
Perseverance and underdog drive sit beside reckless choices Marty is charismatic but unreliable, with few steady role models
Story (may spoil tone)
Marty Mauser, a young man with a dream no one respects, goes to hell and back in pursuit of greatness.
