Drama Competitive ice skater, Tonya Harding, rises among the ranks at the U.S. Figure Skating Championships, but her future in the sport is thrown into doubt, when her boyfriend intervenes.

	Media	Author	Review
		John DeFore The Hollywood Reporter	"A funny and oddly affecting fresh take on an old tabloid tale (...) Gillespie directs as if he's been mainlining 'Goodfellas'. His camera never rests, sweeping and racing around"
		Owen Gleiberman Variety	"Margot Robbie gives a delectable performance (...) It’s a serious blast, with a plot that zigs and zags (but only because it sticks, within reason, to the facts)"
		Katey Rich Vanity Fair	"With a top-flight cast and a willingness to turn tragedy into farce, 'I, Tonya' is a risky comi-tragedy that succeeds on the power of its performances."
		Brian Tallerico rogerebert.com	"It is something altogether strange and original, and it’s a film people are going to be talking about (...) [A] stunning work from Robbie, the best of her career to date"
		David Ehrlich IndieWire	"'I, Tonya' will make you sympathize with Tonya Harding for the first time (...) Fun enough and full of uncommonly dynamic skating sequences (...) and larger-than-life performances"
		Richard Brody The New Yorker	"Gillespie’s empathy is mixed with condescension; much of the movie’s bluff comedy mocks the tone and the actions of Tonya and her milieu."
		Christopher Gray Slant	"Gillespie mostly lands the film's tricky tonal balancing act (...) The filmmakers' attempts to implicate their audience are 'I, Tonya's broken shoelace, too pat and glib to be convincing (…) Rating: ★★½ (out of 4)"
		Angie Han Mashable	"A memorable portrait of Harding, one that significantly complicates the impression of her that was burned into our minds in the '90s."
		Benjamin Lee The Guardian	"An uneven but often hilarious retelling of her controversial career (...) It’s a difficult balance, between truth and exaggerated truth (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"
