This received rave reviews. I disagree, technically a good movie, yes. I was dismayed to see Kevin O'Leary playing another version of himself (much the same version, ironically), but - what most I disagreed with was the lack of sympathetic or likeable characters. We're supposed to be cheering for Marty, who wants to be the world's greatest ping-pong player, and yet he does every heinous thing he can do to get there. And his sphere of acquaintances - girlfriend, mistress, wife, etc - they are all no better.

Too much shouting. 

In the end, the redemption for Marty is that the ends somehow justified the means, and I beg to differ.

PS. Apparently based upon a true story. Still "Meh".
