Christy

Sydney Sweeney gives her all in what is ultimately a formulaic, underdog sports movie. She subsumes her blonde, blue-eyed beauty beneath a brunette mullet and brown contacts to recreate Martin’s look as she rose to stardom in the ‘90s. (Extra special kudos to costume designer Christina Flannery for finding a wide variety of hideous floral prints for the character to wear in an effort to appear feminine.) The star of “Euphoria” and “Anyone But You” glammed down and bulked up for her most demanding role yet, and rose to the physical and emotional challenges of playing this tough but troubled fighter.
