Zendaya is tearing it up in Luca Guadagnino’sChallengersin theaters right now, a saucy and sexy love triangle that’s wrapped in some absorbing tennis drama.
If you lovedChallengersor you’re waiting for it to arrive on whichever of thebest streaming servicesyou use, though, and you want a drama with tennis at its heart to tide you over, then look no further.
King Richardplays a lot with the blurry lines between being overbearing or too demanding as a parent, versus leaving things too loose and keeping your kids at too great a distance.
It’s got some nice complexity to offer up on that front, but there’s also no getting around the fact that Will Smith is seriously terrific in the lead role. He’s got depth and pathos to him, but also a lovely light touch when needed, and the Oscar he won was itself not controversial.

The movie scored five other nominations that it missed out on the awards for, making it a pretty unanimously praised pick if you’re looking to watch something acclaimed.

Of course, what it doesn’t have is a bisexual love triangle, so there’s only so much we can do to compare it toChallengers.
Still,King Richardis an ace, and it features a surprisingly great soundtrack – you might not have expected it to include Best Original Song in its list of Oscar nominations, but Beyoncé wrote a terrific song for it that would sound amazing belting out of any of thebest soundbarswe’ve tested in the last couple of years.
