So much editing! The arm movements are fine, pretty much anyone with a slight background in ballet can mimic them--- it's skating backward, doing intricate skate placement, tracing fine lines, ANY jumps, etc. that show potential---- Robbie does none of that. Many young girls skate for years but fall away (99%) when they get to jumps. Therefore, stating Robbie could be this-or-that obviously is bogus, it's puffery for the film marketers. The comparison skating vid is sped up so much as to make Harding seem like she's in slo-mo. BTW, Tanya was known for jumping and "muscular" performances, not grace--- her body type was very different from Robbie's.
It's a fake performance, obviously so, to sentient observers--- no great interpretive skill needed. Not a bad performance, a fake one. It's also a poor film, making a conniving, disgusting person into a victim wherein the real victim, Kerrigan, is made unsympathetic--- but that's another story.
