A Satirical Look At Tonya and the Incident

Rating: 9/10 (7 April 2018)

(Flash Review)
This exceeded the hype for me. Spot on with its tone, this mixes dry humor and wit with realistic moments while completely pissing all over Tonya's mother. Arguably a 'mockumentary', it touches on Tonya as a child while the film primarily focuses on her mid-career through Lillehammer and ends with her boxing shenanigans. Overall, this was just fun film making; creating caricatures of everyone involved, clever editing, with character asides, well-paced, ample smarmy gags, colorful scenes and great acting. It didn't excuse Tonya's behavior but helped to better explain her personality by continually bashing her mom.
