Every Margot Robbie Movie Ranked From Worst To Best
8. Bombshell (2019)
Bombshell was designed to offer a scathing look at the very real accusations from several women working at Fox News of sexual harassment by its founder and CEO Roger Ailes. Add in the star power of Charlize Theron, Nicole Kidman, and Margot Robbie, and the film had the makings of something big.
What was ultimately released was a hard-hitting piece based in and around the allegations made, though it failed to go deeper into the gritty realms as promised. Bombshell is about empowerment, certainly, but it never gets further than skimming the surface of the sexual assault at the heart of the subject. It could have gone so much further.
To call Bombshell tame would perhaps be a little harsh, however, it feels as though the talent on screen could have been used for a further exploration into such a real issue. That being said, it is still a strong movie, in no small part thanks to the performances of all three lead women (to the surprise of absolutely no one).
In particular, Margot Robbie is at the top of her game, receiving an Oscar nom for Best Supporting Actress. It's not hard to see why.
