Marty Supreme Review | Safdie Brothers, Oscar-Level Casting & Absolute Chaos

Josh Safdie turns ping pong into pure anxiety cinema with Marty Supreme (2025) — a fictionalized sports biopic packed with unlikable characters, outrageous casting, and relentless momentum.

On this episode of Thumb War, Jason and Rachel unpack why Marty Supreme works so well: from Kevin O’Leary’s scene-stealing villain turn to Timothée Chalamet’s desperate, pride-driven performance, the film’s Oscar-worthy casting, needle drops, and one hell of a final match.

If you like Safdie chaos, uncomfortable sports movies, or films where everyone is kind of terrible, this one’s for you.
