I, Tonya

How much Harding knew or didn't know about the attack on Kerrigan is somewhat secondary, if that can be believed.

Gillespie has imbued his film with black humour, while never undermining the authenticity of the characters or detracting from the abuse that runs through the story.

[Allison Janney's] undiluted unsentimentality is the perfect compliment for a sporting underdog movie that disobeys the rules.

Craig Gillespie directs with all the subtlety of a baton-wielding thug but has made at least one brilliant decision in casting Margot Robbie, who is practically a machine for generating empathy.

Whatever your views on the US in general and Harding in particular, you'll leave this cheering for Margot Robbie. Bravo!

It leaves a sense of several stronger movies half-buried beneath a mish-mash of the poignantly heart-rending and the outlandishly farcical, and just about salvaged from mediocrity by its one sensational turn.

Brimming with depravity and teaming with talent, "I, Tonya" may be the brashest film you will see seen this year and, quite frankly, one of the downright best as well.

…isn’t a feminist polemic, but a serious-minded black-comedy…

I, Tonya is wildly entertaining and well made.

Both Robbie and Allison Janney are excellent, and the film’s frisky style is pretty much Scorsese on ice.
