Luca Guadagnino has made some EXQUISITE movies before which I truly adored, but this is not one of them. Dont believe the hype...
The bad: I blame the casting firstmost, because these 3 leading actors just did not ooze any charisma. There wasnt any actor's chemistry of any notice either. Quite a failure in casting these mediocre actors.
More bad: this story is BORING. Try making a tennis match dramatic. Not gonna happen. What would have been possible is to make a love trio dramatic and exciting. Did they succeed in that? NO! There simply is no true intense drama. There isnt even a hot romance.
This movie is just going through the motions. Earlier fans of director Luca Guadagnino's work be warned, this is definitely NOT his finest hour. It's his worst!
