Such a frustrating disappointment
If you don't like this, we can't be friends.
everything you have heard about this movie is true.
It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.
What a climax. Magnificent feel good movie and hilariously funny on top of that. What a great underdog story. This movie is based on a true story of an olympian underdog ski jumper. I still can remember this dude when I saw him live on tv during the olympics back in the eighties. But I never knew that as a kid eddie had a severe injury to his legs. The story of him as a kid wanting to be an olympian medal winner is just cute, as would be with any kid. But when the boy got mature this dude still wanted to be an olympic competitor when he was still rubbish at sports and had literally NO help for training at all.Started watching this movie based on the upbeat hilarious trailer. The movie itself is somewhat slower and more seriously and the lead character eddie doesnt really sparkle as an actor, but he sure has charisma and will power, although he is the utlimate dork. It is truly a heartwarming story, with a super feel good climax. Christopher Walken plays a very short supporting role but is the most powerful actor in the whole picture. What a joy to watch. I Feel Good ! Go Eddie Go !
As i am a athlete. This was very inspirational to me. Acting was perfect from both Hugh and Taron. its about a skier who want to be a olympian. Then he decides to do skein That needed nearly 10 years of training but he does it in a year He becomes famous cuz he was the first British ski jumper
As a movie, it was so thrilling and engaging. I loved it... Hugh Jackman is one of my favorite actors in Hollywood and he didn't disappoint me in this flick also. Taron Eagorton gave us a promising performance as Eddie the Eagle. The 1:45 hrs was worthy and I thoroughly enjoyed it. My small advice to those who haven't seen this movie is, "don't check more on Eddie in internet or elsewhere...just watch the movie and forget this was a biopic..." and that will definitely help.
(Flash Review)I still remember Eddie the Eagle from the 1988 Olympics. The soaring ski jumper who was notable for basically finishing last place while full of spirit and glee as he was so happy to be competing. This is the story of him and his endless drive against all odds. The film starts out rather silly as they try to illuminate Eddie as a child and his passion for competing at the Olympics. He failed over and over and over again at different events but made an effort as the only British Ski Jumper. The film is very funny, told very smartly and you just have to root for this quirky fellow. This is a true fell-good movie. Even better because I remember watching him with my Dad on TV.
