A chamber piece with four characters full of unspoken needs that rarely bursts with the kind of tension required to make an impact.

Directed with keen insight by Matthias Luthardt, it's a sharply written film that plays like an intriguing short story.

The movie had an interesting synopsis but after watching it, Pingpong left me with a bitter taste because the characters are under developed and the situations are superficial and not believable at all. Partially involving but dull. Sometimes I felt I was watching The Graduate remake but with a dull version.
