This is a Josh Safdie film starring Timothée Chalamet as Marty Reisman — a real person. Reisman was a New York City ping-pong hustler and professional player who made a career out of beating people who thought they could beat him. That's the character Chalamet is playing.

The cast around him is genuinely strange in the best way: Gwyneth Paltrow, Odessa A'zion, Kevin O'Leary, Tyler the Creator, Abel Ferrara, Fran Drescher. That's not a cast you assemble for a quiet sports biopic. That's a cast you assemble when the movie has something weird and alive going on.

It drops in theaters December 25. A24 is behind it.

If you've seen Uncut Gems or Good Time, you already know what Safdie does. He takes obsessive, chaotic men — usually trapped in their own compulsions — and puts the camera so close to them you feel physically uncomfortable. The editing makes your chest tight. You don't watch his films, you survive them.

Now he's pointing that at ping-pong. Which sounds absurd until you think about it for two seconds. A hustler who lives or dies by a paddle. A subculture built on ego and speed. Underground rooms in New York City where money and pride change hands at a table. That's a Safdie movie waiting to happen.

His whole filmography is about men who can't stop. Marty Reisman reportedly couldn't stop either. That's why this makes sense.
