‘’She just wanted to watch some good f**kin tennis!’’ THANK YOU! The ones who get it, get it 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

The timeline changing is basically like a game of tennis, going back and forth.

The tweet that said “who’s the villain in challengers? MONOGAMY”

He doesn’t want your permission He wants your approval They’re different. What a banger of a line

they were all miserable because they all wanted each other. Patrick wanted Art and Tashi, Art wanted Patrick and Tashi, Tashi wanted Art and Patrick. The only reason it got all messy was because Tashi's injury took away her tennis and everything spiralled from there.

Why did i actually scream at this notification 😭😭 I can't believe yall watched this- its my fave movie of the year tbh

There was always unacknowledged sexual tension between Art and Patrick. Their friendship was built on a mix of rivalry and desire. Tashi was in love with tennis and used the guys as vehicles to fulfill that desire. Her love for them depended on their proximity to tennis. The guys aren’t mad at the end because they regain the relationship which was the most important to them (their bromance). Tashi was a proxy for the sexual tension they couldn’t fulfill with each other. If you think that Art wasn’t also attracted to Patrick, consider - he went to school with Tashi for ages and he never hung out with her. Art only sat down and tried to break them up when he knew Patrick was coming back to visit. Tashi being desired by Patrick is what made her attractive to Art.

Nick and Cory should have played the male roles... Art is clearly Cory and Patrick is clearly Nick

This movie was really good. The way they connected everything at the end was amazing. Also Patrick was always the best player but he had too big of an ego to let anyone coach him hence why art became the best with her coaching. At the end they both played amazing.

this movie is so iconic i needed this video right now

They were both so locked in for this movie, love to see it

Lolol I can’t stop laughing at them making moaning sounds after the tennis ball is hit 😂😂

this is just reignited my love of this film after not having seen it for a few weeks - great reaction. You really got the minutiae and how their trio truly works - they're all the worst and they deserve each other.

The way Nick looks stressed towards the end, this movie’s been nothing but intense 😂

You guys have managed to get much of the story in the first watch. I’m impressed.

All the same actors throughout. The aging/de-aging was done really well.

i'm surprised nick saw the signal coming lol

not nick going on a rant at the scene where tashi found art sleeping with their daughter😭

Ayy Nick predicted his serve and it’s funny bc it’s something only they know in their friendship so it’s basically a screw you Tashi as art stops hitting the ball and embraced Patrick instead bc he missed his friend and they’re done letting a girl come in between. Literally all she can do is sit on the sidelines and watch, all she wanted was a real tennis game and ofc the anger fueled art to play like he used to despite Patrick always being the better player. Also love how her face slowly morphed from what we think is anger to her infamous scream from finally getting to witness a good game between the two of them

Taking a shot every time Nick says zendaya’s name wrong 😂

12:25 . "This is like that thing in anime where it's like you're not fighting. You are having a conversation with your fists." Wind breaker reference ?!?!?

The way they made us forget who the villain was is genius. Luca was an excellent choice as director of this film, he knew tennis was an intense sport equivalent to lovemaking and he rolled with it lol

Honestly watch it again and in a cinema if you can. It's so rewarding on a rewatch because all the scenes from the start pay off at the end.

YESSSS!! What a pleasant notification to receive!!!!

I don't think Tashi manipulated them at all. In Atlanta she was vulnerable bc Anna Mueller was winning all the competitions, whom she once was able to outshine by far. The news broadcast in that moment showed Anna and Art side by side and that would have made her feel 2 different ways about Art. Because although Art was flourishing with her coaching, it's not actually her on the court. (Also Art partly is the reason for her injury if not fundamental according to the cast interview) It was Patrick who slid into that weak state of hers and he was able to do that bc they were in somewhat of a similar situation. Once top of their game, now fallen out of track. And for the present time, she never would have guessed Patrick was gonna do the sign cuz she didn't know about it. I think she actually does love Art and went to Patrick only to save their marriage. Because if she wanted to watch a good tennis only, asking somebody to lose intentionally is a pretty opposite way to do it. And by the look of her face when Art asked her to hold him, she and him both knew that Art was likely gonna lose and she was just as heartbroken as Art's. Patrick wanted to save everybody in the right way, hence the serve and it was a really risky move that couldve ruined everything but eventually did bring love back to all three of them. People are usually quick to villainize Tashi but had she not gotten dragged into the drama between the two boys, she wouldn't have lost the biggest love of her life, which is tennis so I actually feel the most for her😅

Zendaya’s acting is truly incredible bc every time I see Tashi I get immense dissatisfaction, loke all the chars suck just for diff reasons

Day 3 of asking Nick and Cory to watch Never Have I Ever

i am absolutely dying at how stressed nick looked at the end HAHAHAHAH

I just recently saw this and loved it. Also, I love the shirt Cory is wearing, it's simple yet flattering lol

Stop motion adultery children’s choir 😭

Tashi's motivations: She wants to feel the same emotions that she felt for those 15 secs when she yelled "Come on!" at her opponent all those years ago. She wants to live, not just survive, and she realises that with Art, she'll do nothing but fade away. She thinks by coaching him she can live those moments again, but it isn't working. Fortunately Patrick shows up to show her that to live again, she needs them both, and all three of them need to be together. Art's motivation: This one's pretty clear. He's the soft and sensitive one of the group. He wants to give up. But he needs to learn that he's not just Tashi's emotional support robot. That the only way he can still feel alive is with _both_ Patrick and Tashi beside him, playing some "good f***ing tennis". Patrick's motivation: He thinks he can live alone and succeed if he just has Tashi back, this time as his coach. But he also realizes he misses Art a lot, and the world isn't too kind to him when he's separate from the pack. By the end, he decides to win Art back and knows that by goading Art into a good game, he'll give Tashi what she wants too, which is a relationship laid out in the shape of some good tennis playing. so she can live her "Come on!" moments again. That's Challengers, a life-affirming story championing living instead just coasting through life, decaying marriages, lifeless relationships, being mostly dead inside.

When she told Patrick “you’re 31, you have a better shot with a gun in your mouth “ OOF 😬 but lowkey he needed to be put in his place. They cut so much out in this film tho, the script was a lot spicier

32:59 this is the exact same reaction i had when watching this scene. I don’t care if Art was a messy, dumb teenager at the beginning of the movie. He did not deserved to be cheated on.

This movie is sooo good and the moans took me out 😭

😂😂 yes she just wanted some good tennis but also I feel like she’s happy they mended their bond because she didn’t want to be a homewrecker meaning like a relationship between art and Patrick they all sucked but jsut iconic at the same time 💀

patrick zweig they could never make me hate you... tbh i feel bad for him because he lost his bestfriend and gf at the same day

Been watching a lot of the reactions to challengers and it’s so fascinating. The reactions to the movie tell us soooo much about the you (the content creators) are as people and your views on the world 😂

GUYS I LOVE YOU I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS REACTION OH MY GOD U MADE MY DAY

It always amazes me how women are forgiveing of cheating but men are usually extremely, profoundly, even violently hurt and willibg to wish death upon the cheater. I hated Zweig and Tashi morally but never hated Tashi as passionstely as Nick, he was truly hurt and it's just fiction, thats crazy

Nick got the entire plot exactly. Tashi manipulated these men because she just wanted to watch some good mf tennis.

i die every time nick says Zendaya's name

I just realized you two taking shots and I’ve been watching your Ginny and Georgia vids lmao, how have I not noticed

This movie really makes you think bc you walk out of theaters wondering what you watched and you start to love it the more you sit on it while realizing sm more that happened so I’d say it does have rewatchability and is open to discussion. Very well directed, great visuals and great performances I mean Tashi saying it felt like they were in love playing tennis (her and the girl in the beginning) and I wouldn’t be surprised if she did play them into competing against each other, thus ruining their friendship and putting on a good game. Her scream at the end is always “that’s what I’m talking about” cause she can really only play vicariously thru them and it makes her sad bc she’s a winner and art losing isn’t her style. Tho she’s also twisted so ofc she sees competition as love or something toxic lol Patrick’s real bc he tells her when she talks too much about tennis while art just lets her, and at the end he realized how blinded he was to getting the girl he lost sight of the game and his friendship instead

I’ve been WAITING for this one

Exactly tashi’s not at fault, if anyone’s meddling it’s art

At this point, I’m convinced all of Nick’s comments are meant as rage bait

after watching this i’m contemplating if i’ve been mispronouncing zendaya for years

honestly this is your best reaction video

patrick is in love with art and art probs desnt know that he likes Patrick. Tashi just wants to play tennis but these two hot men want her so why not.

Finally! Was waiting for you two to react to this. This movie was made for you guys lol

THATS WHAT IM TALKING ABOUT

It’s okay, the music gets worse with each setting lmaoo

I’m happy you are doing this film I was curious to see which of my favourite reactors will watch it

I love how everyone assumed it would be rated r but usually they show a hint of it in trailers and they just made it look intense we assumed it was rated r and it’s only heated kissing between three tennis players lol it’s genius

I laughed so hard when u said "like mortal combat."

*I'M SO EXCITED!* I don't know why I'm surprised y'all are reacting to this, y'all watched Saltburn. 😂🤗💦

I LOVED every messy, complicated, toxic, co-dependent minute of this movie! Best film I've seen for the last few years! Nothing cookie cutter about it. Everything worked...cinematography, music, time jumps (like a tennis match). BRILLIANT!

Art slithered his way in especially while being there during her injury and she settled for him as someone to train since she blames Patrick for her injury and tbh she seems like she likes both of em but secretly hates em for being able to do what she can’t, which is play tennis and that’s really all she cares about

this movie was SO GOOD! I loved it. And zendaya said she practiced air tennis LOL. She said she sucks at tennis. Also in terms of I guess “who she liked more” between them, I don’t think it’s a conversation of who she liked more, because the only thing she TRULY loved, is tennis. Like yea, she married Art, and in a weird way I think she does love him to some degree, but she loved him as much as her heart would allow because tennis was her first love. they all brought out in each other. Patrick and Tashi were alike talent wise, but Patrick lacked drive and ambition and Tashi didn’t rlly like that. Art on the other hand was insecure with his tennis playing and she saw that he was basically malleable and also pretty desperate for her validation. I think the reason she also liked art was because he was more sensitive and emotional in a way, more receptive and he was there for her when she got injured.

To my knowledge, it’s not based on a true story, but it is based on a book.

"tennis is a trash sport compared to pickleball" nick we're fighting

Didn’t expect this considering it’s still playing in theaters till tmrw but I’m excited. 8.5/9 for me

Its basically:- PATRICK loves ART. ART loves TASHI and TASHI loves TENNIS.

Loved your reaction as always. You should watch society of the snow. It's a great movie and I would love to hear what you have to say about that one. If you do watch it I recommend the original language with subtitles, the acting was amazing

i hope yall continue supernatural

ACL, meniscus, LCL, and PCL tears looks and feels exactly what is seems like it would. Surgery was so so bad to recover from it happened to me

29:51 in case you guys missed it, thank me later 😝

Explore each others bodies

Like if you want Zendaya to do to Nick and Cory what she did to Art and Patrick

Great reaction video!

Tashi loves tennis because to her its a relationship. I think thats why shes more sexually attracted to patrick because he pushes back and theres more passion there. But I dont think she loves him because he lacks the drive to better himself. Art is more like a puppy dog who follows her around but it makes him more pliable to become the person Tashi wants him to be. And after her accident she is kind of "stuck" with him because hes her only outlet to tennis, her first and foremost love. Thats why shes so devasted when he wants to retire. Especially when he's also responsible for putting her off her game mentally and causing her accident. And I think Patrick is in love with Art. I think he may be sexually attracted to Tashi too but only really dates her as a way to make Art jealous. Art loves and adores Tashi though. They all win at the end though. Art gets his passion for tennis back, Patrick gets his friend back and Tashi gets a really good game of tennis.

Yea I debated watching again cause I only really watched it in theaters for the cinematic effect (hated the speakers bc the soundtrack was weird) so I’m gonna wait for streaming and make my friends watch lol

I’ve never clicked something so fast in my damn life

Yea tashi’s only love is for the game, for tennis. She symbolizes the tennis ball going back and forth across the net

“My heart rate is so off right now holy fuck” “Call Life Alert” Those last two closing sentences was better than the whole reaction 😂

Thank you guys for translating/describing this movie for me because I DID NOT GET IT AT ALL !!! 👀😖😵😒

the way they keep misprouncing her name has me fkin dying

Art tells Patrick to serve like him if he slept with Tashi so he did, which he later does at the challengers match

Yeah 🎉

if you really think about it, they all win in the end

Lovvve this

They both got Tashi (sort of), they got each other again, and Tashi got to watch a damn good match. In the end they kind of all got what they wanted.

21:45 I’m howling🤣

Guys, you talk over the exposition at the beginning! Precisely about the things you've been wondering and that are given as info through the tv announcer... Anyways, I like you, so I keep watching you 🙂

All art wants is his friend back and tho Patrick’s sleazy for getting with Tashi he still told him so he just forgives him right then and there bc he realized that tennis wasn’t the same without Patrick, his actual soulmate

Patrick was always art’s true soulmate/partner (platonically ofc) and it’s funny bc Tashi kept referring to herself as a homewrecker since she basically ruined their friendship yet Patrick did the same but only bc art was instigating. I guess it’s why they call tennis a relationship bc they lose sight of the actual game and are instead in love with the game (Tashi, who also symbolizes the tennis ball) but overall they all suck with deep issues and a major case of inferiority complex

Tom Holland have been real silent after this movie came out😂

Anyone think that Patrick can't go back to his parents? Like maybe they took him out of their will when they found out he liked guys too.

This movie is risky, but everyone loves anything sewage water-dirty kind of entertainment. Zendaya, Josh O'Connor, and Mike Faist are remarkable actors. They say the grass is greener on the other side, and that couldn't be any more true in this context.

Watched the movie 2 hours ago in the cinema. How is this possible? Haha

32:58 - 33:12 that’s exactly how I felt😭😭😭

You guys missed where it said Tashi and Art were married lol

Confused and frustrated sexually or not is probably the definition of toxicity 😂

Tashi love tennis more than anything and she had issues not playing due to her injury and for me Patrick loved Art more than Tashi. No secrets between them and there were secrets with Art and Tashi. All three had a lot of issues and so far it's my favorite 2024 film

i saw this in the theater with my sister and it was something else, fr awkward to watch with your sister 🥲

I work at the movies and the rule with Rated R movies is as long as someone 17+ is there with anyone under that age they can come too. I had parents bringing their 5 year olds to see this movie. I have no clue WHY they did. Maybe they saw Zendaya but I had parents getting upset with me. Buddy I told you it's Rated R. Why are you mad at me?

Ive never seen these two so quiet and serious with a movie before .haha weird

Patrick is an Alpha Male and Art is the Omega male. Patrick will always dominate Art. In tennis, in relationships, in love and in life. He couldn’t help it. I think that’s the part of Pat that Tashi responds to. Although she also wants the stability and equanimity that Art offers. But, in life, as in tennis, as Art says, “you can only win the points that matter.”

Zendaya bites him.--Nick
