Not your ordinary biopic

Rating: 8/10 (27 December 2017)

Well I am not really into figure ice skating or anything that happens on the ice at all but I am always into good story and this is truly an interesting character to put on the silver screen.
The film was good because it wasnt your typical straight forward biopic drama, no it was a fresh, foul mouthed comedy with some little thriller elements and of course some tragic turns as well. It was film to really give Margot Robbie the chance to put out all her acting weapons and boy did she deliver! This is so far the role of her life and she deserves every kudos she receives for it. I am sure this will not only end up with an Oscar nomination but also with one of the top candidates for the Best Actress Oscar. Excellent and brave performance. Funny, tragic, sad and always with a bad mouth. Allison Janney was just as good. Sure it already was a showy part to begin with but Janney even put something on top. You never knew if you should just straight up hate her or if there is something good in her. Very cynical, very sarcastic performance. Unlike everything Janney ever did on that level and one of the best performances of this year. She really owned every scene she was in (although some scenes were stolen by her bird). Sebastian Stan was okay but couldn't stand himself too well against those two powerhousse women. The soundtrack was excellent, the direction fine and I really liked the script.
