Marty Supreme is a drama set in New York City during the 1950s, where up-and-coming table tennis star Marty Mauser goes to hell and back in pursuit of greatness.
IGN – “Chalamet is completely mesmerizing as Marty Mauser. The character’s tendency to use his razor-sharp wit to talk his way out of corners isn’t dissimilar to Uncut Gem’s Howard Ratner. Both are insanely confident and driven to win, and both can be described as narcissistic, exploitative, and manipulative.” (full review here)
Empire – “Marty Supreme is also not your usual handsomely staid period drama. There’s a giddy messiness and electrifying volatility to the crazed plotting, as Marty turns to hustling, thieving and even ransoming a stolen dog in order to secure cash for his Tokyo trip.” (full review here)
Mashable – “Long after the Oscars have been handed out and the fanfare has died down, Marty Supreme will be remembered as one of the supreme New York movies. Exploding with chaos, character, and kinetic energy, Marty Supreme is a movie about the city’s scoundrels, their sins, and why we love them anyway.” (full review here)
