Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 2/4 --
Danish documentarian Janus Metz-making his first feature, and working from a script by Ronnie Sandahl-feels the need to hold our hands and oversimplify these two titans of tennis.

RogerEbert.com
3 stars out of 5 -- [W]hile Borg/McEnroe is structured like a standard sports movie, director Janus Metz Pedersen’s ambitions are loftier -- aiming to get inside the minds of two great rivals and competitors.
Empire
Rating: 7/10 --
Metz's film leaves us with sympathy and curiosity about the sport and the characters that defined the sexiest decade in tennis history.

Maybe not game, set and match, but Borg vs. McEnroe definitely reaches a solid match point.

What I Watched Tonight
3 stars out of 4 -- As for LaBeouf, with an off-screen rep as a hothead to rival McEnroe's, this protean talent rips into the role like an actor possessed, playing Johnny Mac as a volcano ready to blow...
Rolling Stone
Rating: 3.5/4 --
A psychological portrait of competition, friendship and a complicated, temperamental prodigy, whose outbursts and lack of self-control threaten to derail what promises to be a fruitful athletic career.
