I, Tonya

About This Movie

I, Tonya is a fascinating blend of comedy and drama, diving into the tumultuous life of Tonya Harding. The film's tone shifts deftly, balancing dark humor with heartfelt moments. You get this gritty, almost raw atmosphere that feels very real, thanks to a mix of excellent performances, especially from Margot Robbie, who embodies Tonya's complex character. The pacing is a bit unconventional, with flashbacks and interviews interspersed, giving it a documentary feel. It explores themes of abuse, ambition, and media sensationalism in a way that feels both personal and larger than life. Plus, the practical effects during the skating sequences are done remarkably well, adding to the authenticity of the performance.

Skating sequences are particularly well-executed. · The film offers a unique perspective on media portrayal. · Character dynamics are compelling and layered.
