What to Know

Critics Consensus

Led by strong work from Margot Robbie and Alison Janney, I, Tonya finds the humor in its real-life story without losing sight of its more tragic -- and emotionally resonant -- elements.

Robert Daniels 812filmreviews How much Harding knew or didn't know about the attack on Kerrigan is somewhat secondary, if that can be believed. Rated: 4/4 Aug 27, 2018 Full Review Nikki Baughan Sight & Sound 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 Full Review Tara Brady Irish Times [Allison Janney's] undiluted unsentimentality is the perfect compliment for a sporting underdog movie that disobeys the rules. Rated: 4/5 Mar 2, 2018 Full Review JD Duran InSession Film Craig Gillespie’s ambitious direction and self-awareness made I, Tonya a refreshing and hysterical look at Tonya Harding’s life and what drove the events of her downfall. Aug 7, 2024 Full Review Don Shanahan Every Movie Has a Lesson 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. Rated: 5/5 Sep 4, 2023 Full Review Eddie Harrison film-authority.com …isn’t a feminist polemic, but a serious-minded black-comedy… Rated: 4/5 Aug 1, 2023 Full Review Read all reviews

Savannah G Margot Robbie- I am not sure if there is a film I dont like with her in it- Her ability to get into the character to the T with her flare is really impressive. The story itself is pretty devastating I appreciate how close to the actual story it got which is really when I enjoy biopics. Margot though and her leading role and ability to stand out as an impressive actor is the reason for this film for me. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 11/19/24 Full Review Jelisije J Probably the most over the top biopic that you will ever see. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 11/06/24 Full Review Edward P Una película fantástica, con una comedia cruda pero que funciona muy bien para contar una historia tan sensible y que te llena de muchas emociones. La actuación de Margot Robbie es simplemente perfecta. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/16/24 Full Review Audience Member Enquanto os minutos de I, Tonya passavam, não pude deixar de pensar sobre quão expressiva é a ambiguidade que o filme transmite, a trilogia nacional A Menina que Matou os Pais conta o mesmo caso criminal sob diferentes perspectivas e precisou de três longas para isso. I, Tonya poderia ter sido uma obra biográfica dramática, assustadora ou com um teor que buscasse inocentar a protagonista, mas Craig Gillespie não escolhe percorrer nenhum desses caminhos, a melhor maneira de retratar a realidade é através do humor, I, Tonya tira sarro da América e de toda a sociedade americana, Tonya Harding não é uma escória da sociedade, sua vida é um dos relatos mais pontuais sobre o modo de vida estadunidense, Tonya pode ser um monstro ou uma heroina dependendo de quando é conveniente para a mídia que ela seja. Mas como numa tragédia grega, nós ainda torcermos para que Tonya vença, mesmo sabendo desde o primeiro minuto de projeção que ela não vai. O filme é consciente sobre suas limitações quanto a verdade do incidente, a verdadeira-verdade é inalcançável e transita pelo meio de todas as versões do caso, Gillespie está mais preocupado em contar uma boa história, se o filme buscasse moralidade, hoje estaríamos assistindo a cinebiografia de Nancy Kerrigan. E claro, o êxito de I, Tonya não seria possível sem Margot Robbie, com uma performance que passa desde The Red Shoes até Carrie. -publicado 3 de agosto de 2024 no letterboxd @stollendance - Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/16/24 Full Review freya n I think about this film a lot.. a must watch!
