"I, Tonya" is one of those movies that only excels because people know it's based on a true story. There are a couple well done stylistic choices made also, but the meat of the story is like some sort of real life Coen brothers variation of bumbling criminals, only somewhat lacking. And there's a reason the Coens keep going back to dumbass crimes, it works.

Having lived some 10 miles from the ice rink where Tonya Harding trained, I look back at my childhood as a montage of melancholy and missed opportunities. When I was playing Mega Man in my mom's den, I could have been part of something big. And now instead of having my own construction company and triple-axeling the competition on Dancing with the Stars, I just write snarky movie reviews and dream about how things might've been different. Fuck you, Mega Man.

The characters talking to the camera mid scene was just irritating and didn't work, the tonal shifts were a bit jarring at times and any comedic scene with that Shawn character didn't really work for me. Quite a few niggles drag my score down for me, but I suppose I enjoyed it as a whole. Janney and Robbie were great and the praise well deserved.

It has its problems, but in a movie where performance is king it's pointless to note that there really isn't a single scene where I was impressed with Margot Robbie's skating. Elle Fanning in Somewhere would be her Oksana Baiul in more ways than one. I appreciated the emphasis on her refusal to accept responsibility for literally everything that goes wrong. I just wish everyone else would appreciate my tendency to do the same.

Pretty tragic and (sometimes) sympathetic movie about Hardings rise and fall in the skating world and her rough life as a child. A lot of the people portrayed in this movie were dysfunctional or just mean, but the movie is here to inform you on what supposedly happened by telling the story through the perspectives of different people connected to Tonya. Still, I felt bad for her. Overall the movie is really well made and the acting is superb. I'd recommend it if you're interested.

An entertaining movie with a good, but maybe a little too showy Oscar-winning performance from Janney and an also Oscar-nominated one from Robbie (well-deserved). More could have been done with the contrasting of different perspectives. The little that was done was pretty cool, though. I'm a sucker for that kind of thing. My one major gripe with the film is the actors breaking the fourth wall. When will filmmakers realize that this is always super lame? Just communicate it in a voice-over, man.

Despite some minor issues during its tonal shifts, I, Tonya is quite a fitting biopic for Tonya Harding. It balances her spunk with the dramatic consequences of her incident with Kerrigan, and Margot Robbie's turn as the infamous skater shows her range better than any of her other roles. Allison Janney and Sebastian Stan do excellent supporting work as well, and director Craig Gillespie does a good job making a movie about figure skating be as vicious as the sport surprisingly is.

I, Tonya is about a lot of things. Domestic violence, abuse, class, determination, the media, and figure skating. Maybe in that order, but you could probably make a case to juggle a few of those around. It does a lot with these themes, makes us laugh, makes us sad, makes us angry, and does it all with a bit of different packaging and fantastic acting. It's entertaining from start to finish, it does a lot in its two hours, and it's one of my favorite movies of the year so far.

Viewed November 27, 2017. Kind of a dumb movie. Craig Gillespie attempts to emulate Martin Scorsese's style with such intensity that you have to wonder how no one ever stepped in to steer him into an even slightly less derivative piece of filmmaking. For a movie about one of the three or four biggest headlines of the 1990s, it sure has a lot of 70s classic rock on the soundtrack. Nothing says young love like Bad Company's "Shooting Star."

I think you have to approach this as a comedy first and foremost. Even the opening disclaimer lets us know that the "truth" is anyone's guess. So, for what it is, it's great. There is a lot laughter and disbelief. Janney's performance is spectacular, and Robbie's is almost as good. Overall it's definitely one of the most entertaining movies of the year.

If you're looking for answers, forget it. They don't even lead off with the usual "based on true events", but rather, "Based on irony free, wildly contradictory, totally true interviews with Tonya Harding and Jeff Gillooly." As for Tanya's mother, they had little to work with, so Allison Janney created one of the most evil villains in cinema history. Only a mother could be that wicked. You got straight up comedies, dark comedies, and now this, patho-comedies.

Great performances & the film's more than watchable (how could it not be? Lousy parenting & scandal, like car crashes, are inherently compelling), but things take a giant turn for the worse when the filmmakers give Tonya - the kind of damaged, angry & impulsive idiot who keeps making bad decisions - the last word & turn this into yet another liberal screed that lays the blame for her predicament on everything BUT her stupidly returning to a batterer. Blame society/media: much less complicated!

While it is hilarious at some points, with this portrayal of the characters, it's hard to sympathize with Tonya or anyone else. All of the acting is great, especially Paul Walter Hauser, but adding Robbie's face to another skater during those scenes was a bit distracting. I do like the way they had them talk to the audience and the interview scenes.

Tells an interesting story in unique fashion. The faux interviews worked less for me than the fourth-wall breaks, which were a sardonic pleasure. Strong performances all around, though the quick-clip format focused more on entertainment than empathy; in the end, it did achieve both, if in more measure the former than the latter.

I was really looking forward to I, Tonya and it did not disappoint. It takes the supposed events of Tonya Harding's roller coaster life story and adds a humorous flare.

Told with energetic aplomb, this is a stylish and unconventional look at Tonya Harding and the “biggest scandal in sports history.” Robbie is fantastic to watch, and Janney is an absolute scene stealer. The editing was flawless and, for my sense of style, pacing, and movie making magic, rivaled Dunkirk and Baby Driver for best editing on the year.

Towards the end of the second act of "I, Tonya", there's a moment. A career defining moment in which Margot Robbie, as Tonya Harding, stares through the screen and into your soul. She laments how the public went from loving her, to vilifying her, to forgetting she existed entirely, a punchline to a cultural gag. Abused by those around her all her life, she says, to us, "You are all my attackers, too". Everyone has their own truth. Whatever happened between Tonya and Nancy Kerrigan, this is hers.

Really good despite some poor choices. I disliked the framing device a lot, and the contrived (really - why on earth do this) talking to the camera mid-scene in particular. Additionally I find this kind of subjective scoring-based sport to be thoroughly uninteresting. All that said, the performances are fantastic all around, Robbie and Janney in particular. Once the "incident" comes into the narrative it becomes a really interesting, entertaining film. Cannavale should do more humor.

This years Wolf of Wall Street, not just because all the acting deserves all the awards but everything else falls just short of being award deserving. It's crazy, crude, and expects the viewer to be smart enough to not automatically take Tonya's side even tho it follows her. She is shown in all her sides and the movie benefits greatly from it.

Tonya Harding gets a spiritually suitable biopic in I, TONYA, which also stands as the first real showcase for the acting talents of Margot Robbie. After more than two decades as a pop culture punchline, Harding perhaps deserves a little more than the fast and loose treatment here, but the film's embrace of controversy and its mixed signals only seem fitting. The Kerrigan incident is the showstopper, but it's buoyed by consistently great work from Robbie, Janney, Stan, and the rest of the cast.

The love for Scorsese and The Big Short is strong here, but it's a lesser film, not having the same energy. Despite that, Robbie is great as the titular Tonya, and the way Rogers approached writing this was for the best; I had no interest in seeing this but the opening bit intrigued me, I thought I might come out loving it. It dragged, rarely hit the comedy notes it wanted to while also never delivering the drama like it needed. Has too much good in it to merely be average though.

The truth of what really happened doesn't matter, because everybody will always attach their own narratives onto the Tonya Harding story anyways. The movie ambitiously tries to cover a lot of ground: class struggle, media sensationalism, the cycle of trauma and a meta-narrative on the nature of storytelling itself all while trying to tell a biopic that's different enough to avoid formulaic tropes, and honestly, it's does a decent job of all them, even if all the sylistic choices didn't quite fit

I really enjoyed learning about Tonya Harding's side of the story, and I liked this cinematic/documentary style. I think this movie did a great job portraying the same incident through different perspectives, and I came out feeling sorry for how Tonya lost so much of her career by such a careless man who was just a no-body. After watching the movie, I did some searching around on Youtube and found that the producers really stayed true to the facts and details from news broadcasts and interviews.

An amusing send-up of Scorsese crime movie tropes with excellent performances bolstered by even better period-specific makeup and costuming. Robbie in particular is incredible with both the traditional biopic material and the ironic comedic angle. The movie's treatment of Harding's story is somewhat dubious, but it's a surprisingly good, darkly comic piss-take of crime movies that accentuates the absurdity, tragedy, and humanity hiding behind tabloid stories.

The mix between levity and shocking domestic violence often feels confused, but the winner of the day is Margot Robbie.

Although Robbie is good, she can't at all capture Harding's spunkiness, and the use of snippets of popular music to add energy and emotion to a sequence has definitely reached saturation levels in contemporary cinema. Nevertheless, despite being stylistically derivative, this is mostly quite enjoyable, never boring, well worked out, and, once or twice, hilarious. Reminds me of THE WOLF OF WALL STREET in the sense that po-faced critics of the film seem to forget that it's essentially a comedy.

A fascinating story brought, brilliantly to the screen. The performances by Margot Robbie and, particularly, Allison Janney are astonishing, and both raise this film to another level (though Margot doesn't look like Tonya). There are minor CGI issues, but you'll be able to overlook these. The interview-style narrative, also adds a bit of ambiguity to the film, distorting the truth, keeping us wondering as to what really happened.

I was indifferent to the Harding/Kerrigan story to begin with, and the film didn't change my mind at all. The fourth-wall breaking by the characters, aside from being annoying and unfunny, felt superfluous given that we were already seeing several characters being interviewed. I guess the director thinks the audience is dumb white trash. The pop-song soundtrack - aside from songs she actually skated to - did not fit at all.

A well paced film that doesn't hold any punches (literally and figuratively). Lots of great stylistic touches on display, and some great bits of humor. The use of music was particularly on point. And of course the acting from Robbie and Janney was outstanding, but the acting from Hauser was equally as good, or who knows maybe I'm just in love with the way his character was written. The fact that Hauser's character is (presumably) a mostly accurate portrayal of a real person makes it even better.

Let's be honest Craig Gilespie has obviously seen A LOT of Scorsese movies. I mean a lot! The movie is basically divided into to parts, before and after... The Incident. Before the incident it's the Allison Janney Show, but afterwards Robbie gets to flex her muscles a bit. The movie is a fresh take on a story people over 30 remember all too well. I honestly hope that at least one of Janney or Robbie gets an Oscar, both deserve it. Funny, harsh and once again very scorsese like...

Robbie is quite good even if she stands out at times as being quite obviously way older than the other actresses playing peers. The movie is tonally a bit weird. They shoot some serious scenes with levity and that includes some of the clear child abuse scenes. So the movie wants laughs at parts that are terrible for Tonya and then has a part where they try to make people feel bad for laughing at her expense in the 90s. It's quite interesting and not a typical biopic but I'm not sure it's great.

Ambitiously made sports drama that verges on thriller (not to mention has plenty of dark laughs) that may've been too spectacular for its own good if it weren't for how consistently ferocious it is, particularly with showing how dreadful Tonya's mother and husband treat her. The shit-show that was her life is shown with gusto, suggesting how it affected or strengthened her determination, of which is stunningly brought to life by Margot, along with the talents of Janney and Stan.

"ya böyle bir olay vardı" görselleştirmesi gibi işlev görüyor. kullandığı kameraya konuşma numarasını da döküdrama-vari röportajları anlatıya yedirmeyi de beceremiyor. her ne kadar medya kültürü eleştirisi yapmaya kalkışıyorsa da virajları alamadan dümdüz ilerlemeye çalışıyor film ve bu açıdan sadece senaryo problemi değil, ondan çok daha ciddi bir yönetmenlik beceriksizliği söz konusu.

I had my doubts initially. I did not enjoy Craig Gillespie's other sports drama, "Million Dollar Arm". But this won me over. It's a pop culture movie about a pop culture icon, but as such it has a certain sincerity (I don't mean historical accuracy, just sincerity about its own narrative), is really well made and I dare say, sweeping.

Being born after the event itself, I was able to live through the moments that Tonya Harding had gone through. Overall, a good movie that brought light to a significant event in history.

Way better than I expected. An excellently-told story. Probably one of the year's best.

Delightful, fun mockumentary style. Great soundtrack and performance by Allison Janney in particular.

Despite solid performances all round, I didn't enjoy I, Tonya. The blend of pithy comedy and biographical elements interspersed throughout the film made the experience more palpable, but I found the characters unsympathetic and unlikable. Coupled with my disconnect and disinterest in the real life events, I couldn't get into this film. If I need a cinematic ice skating fix, I think I'll stick to Blades of Glory.

Everything except Janney felt overrated. Narration is awful, Robbie is mediocre, even the makeup is bad.

"korkunc" cgi lari gormezden gelebilirseniz filmin anlatiminda tercih edilen bazi zevksiz secimler genel konsepte iyi hizmet ediyor. Margot Robbie ve Allison Janney muthis oynamis. Kendini siradan spor biyografi filmlerine gore farkli bir yerde konumlandirmasi arti puan.

Socko, transformative performances from Janney and Robbie make the film worthwhile, but Gillespie's irritatingly overdone direction (borrowing liberally from Scorsese, especially GOODFELLAS) overwhelm the story - it's telling that the most effective moments are the quasi documentary sequences - the film would have been all the better had this minimalist style been carried over to the main narrative. Still Janney and Robbie are well deserving of any and all accolades coming their way!

I, Tonya is, in a way, an anti-redemption story, about a would-be superstar who grew up in a prodigal house and a judgmental industry, and somehow succeeded in spite of all that. Then she sabotaged her own career (with plenty of help). And then, miracle of miracles, she was given a second chance.

The first two acts of I, Tonya were carried by it's quick cuts and blunt humour. It isn't until the third act where Robbie really comes into her character, grabbing the audience through her ability to show true grief and desperation. I left the theatre much more impressed than I thought I may, however, it won't find a spot in my 2017 most memorable films.

Craig Gillespie lived on Goodfellas. It's why he became a director. These are claims I haven't verified, just what I know after seeing I, Tonya. The film floats, jumps, surprises, simmers, and employs storytelling tactics like Goodfellas. It's rare that I find a film so enamored with another film. Yet, unlike Scorsese's masterwork, Gillespie falls just short of the finish line. I, Tonya always flirts with greatness, but never finds it -- apart from its cast, of course.

Act I and Act III are great, when it's a movie about abuse and class. Act II, when it turns into the Gang Who Couldn't Shoot Straight for 45 minutes, is pretty damn lame (even though Sebastian Stan is a better actor than I thought he'd be). Allison Janney is flawless as usual, though I don't really think she should be winning all these awards when there's Laurie Metcalf in Lady Bird. But it's Margot Robbie's movie. Goddamn, I had no idea she had that kind of performance in her.
