Better than expected biopic

Rating: 8/10 (13 March 2020)

An unsuspected entertaining glimpse at the troubled life and tainted career of ice skater Tonya Harding (Margot Robbie). Her doomed career destroyed by the intervention of her ex-husband and one of sports infamous scandals: the attack on her rival Nancy Kerrigan (Caitlin Carver) leading into the 1994 Winter Olympics. The skating scenes are commendable. Miss Robbie's efforts may have been her best so far. And Allison Janney as Tonya's mother is a character very easy to dislike...for a long time. Also starring: Sebastian Stan, Bobby Cannavale and Paul Walter Hauser.
Nice soundtrack featuring: Dire Straits, Bad Company, Heart, Laura Branigan and Fleetwood Mac.
