The tone of this film mirrors Roger Federer as a player and human being: elegant, classy, detached and cool.

Like its subject, the film is not particularly revolutionary or groundbreaking in its approach. But again, like its subject, it is a work of unmistakable quality and class.

Federer was unique at being: mild. It’s why so many crying dads love him. On screen this doesn’t play so well.

Unlike the tennis star at the center of the film, this played it far too safe, ultimately to the films detriment.
