Plot

The decade of the 90s. Tonya Harding (Margot Robbie) is a promising American figure skater, the second in history capable of completing a triple axel jump in competition. Of course, Tonya also became famous for one of the most sensational scandals in the history of sport. In 1994 his main rival for the Juegos Olímpicos de Lillehammer was his compatriot Nancy Kerrigan (Caitlin Carver). Shortly before the start of the competition, Kerrigan suffered an infamous attack by a bully, who tried to break his leg. La sombra de la sospecha recae entonces sobre el entorno de Tonya, desde su ex marido Jeff Gillooly (Sebastian Stan) hasta su guardespaldas, Shawn Eckhardt (Paul Walter Hauser). El matrimonio se verá entonces envuelto en problemas legales y fue así como comonenza la decadencia de la carrera de Harding.

The most positive review

_I, Tonya_ is a fun and interesting biopic. Margot Robbie is fantastic in almost every role she does, and that is no different here. I absolutely loved her as Tonya, although there were a few times her Harley Quinn voice snuck in there but it worked. Julianne Nicholson was great as Tonya's mom, she had this cold a gruel demeanor that was very sharp and funny. Sebastian Stan is excellent, the raw anger and emotion he demonstrated was captivating. For a supposed comedy biopic I did not laugh all that much, but that is 100% okay with me as the tone was light enough to have an amazing time with this film. Music choice was excellent throughout.
**Score:** _90%_
**Verdict:** _Excellent_

The most negative review

With the Oscars only a week away and the 2018 Winter Olympics on right now, it seemed like the appropriate time to finally watch _I, Tonya_, the movie for which lead Margot Robbie has received her first "Best Actress" Academy Award nomination.
2017 has had a lot of biopics, and a good number of those garnered awards buzz/consideration, and for all of them, I had (to varying degrees) the same complaint: They're to much about the "what" and not enough about the "who". _I, Tonya_ bucks that trend completely, and gives us a movie in which I felt I truly got to know these characters. Now how accurate those "characters" are to their real life counterparts is another discussion for another time, but contained within the movie itself, I was very satisfied with the insight I got in _American Ice Skater Story_.
_Final rating:★★★ - I liked it. Would personally recommend you give it a go._
