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

| Original Score: 4/4 | Aug 27, 2018

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.

| Mar 6, 2018

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

| Original Score: 4/5 | Mar 2, 2018

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.

| Mar 1, 2018

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

| Original Score: 4/5 | Feb 25, 2018

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.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Feb 23, 2018

A furiously engaging movie that features Margot Robbie in an ice rink, Margot Robbie at the action end of brutalising domestic abuse and, most significantly, Margot Robbie transforming fourth-wall breaking into a nearly sublime art form.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Feb 23, 2018

One of those rare films that gets better as it continues.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Feb 22, 2018

Compellingly stumped by its own heroine, the film simply can't make its mind up about Tonya Harding. If it did, it wouldn't get away with being such a blast.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Feb 22, 2018

What does emerge from every account is that Tonya Harding was a force of nature, single-minded, very tough and always ready to keep on fighting, even if she had the fatalistic view that people from her background simply weren't allowed to become winners.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Feb 21, 2018

A good story, told with flair if not finesse.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Feb 21, 2018

[Margot] Robbie's sympathetic yet complicated performance imbues it with truth and pathos.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Feb 21, 2018

Robbie and Janney are flawless in a compelling and corrective account of a misunderstood figure; one of the more darkly funny biopics you'll ever see.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Feb 21, 2018

Gillespie's flippant biopic leans too heavily into lightness. Not only does it remain oddly silent on Kerrigan, but it feels flippant about domestic abuse ...

| Original Score: 3/5 | Feb 21, 2018

The movie is a wildly entertaining if imperfect telling of the unlikely champion from the wrong side of the tracks and the violent 1994 incident that would go on to define her life.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Jan 24, 2018

I, Tonya is a depressing tale. Yet, as superbly acted by a fine cast and confidently directed by Gillespie, it's a weirdly entertaining and even quite tragic story.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Jan 19, 2018

[Robbie] transforms what could easily have been just another grotesquerie in a grand guignol into a fully rounded, albeit unsympathetic, character.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jan 12, 2018

[Margot] Robbie's screen presence makes her seem, at first blush, more suited to play Kerrigan. But just a few minutes into I, Tonya, I found myself captivated by the anger and blunt physicality that define Robbie's performance.

| Jan 8, 2018

... while the film doesn't land a triple axel, it's safe to say it doesn't go splat face-first into the ice, either.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Jan 5, 2018

"I, Tonya" turns her tragedy into triumph.

| Original Score: A- | Jan 5, 2018
