A condescending & contrived take on Harding

Rating: 1/10 (15 December 2017)

I, Tonya is a *mockumentary* of Harding life & it left a bitter taste in my mouth. Should we start glamorizing & showing empathy to every criminal (regardless of their upbringing)? Is it appropriate to *mock* domestic violence and poor people in a condescending fashion? These are the questions I found myself asking after watching ''I, Tonya?''
Janney as LaVona steals the show as Harding's abusive & vulgar mother. She completely overshadows Robbie, who I felt was miscast even though she produced. Apart from the costume & scruffy hair, her transformation wasn't overly noticeable. I was seeing Robbie, not Harding.
