Beautiful movie! I enjoyed every minute of watching it. Eddie is such an inspiration to never gibe up no matter what the circumstances. I'm glad to see this movie. Excellent actors especially Taron Egerton. 😍😍

The trailer was all right but did not leave me with the feeling I would enjoy this movie. But I was bored so I watched it anyway. Quickly I wasn't so bored anymore. This movie was terrific. Isn't it amazing how the best stories are true. You don't make this up. So I suggest getting a glass of milk. Sitting the kids in front of the TV and watching this movie. Just don't jump off the roof after. Your not an eagle.

Remember the plot for Cool Runnings? The Story of the hopeless Jamaican bobsleigh team who with the help of disgraced USA bobsleigh coach John Candy fulfill there ream of competing at the Calgary Winter Olympics. We'll move on twenty years and we have the story of Britains Eddie Edwards who with the help of disgraced former USA jumper Huw Jackman who by the way makes a great advert for alcohol and nicotine abuse. We see our hero fulfill his dream of competing at the Calgary Winter Olympics. And here is the problem the films virtually mirror each other when in reality the Eddie Edwards story is a fascinating one and did not need this Hollywood makeover He was not the hapless bafone the film portrays him, he was an accomplished skier and an intelligent man who went on to complete a law degree in later life. I only hope he got paid some serious money for this movie as it does him no favors

Easily one of my favorite films of all time. So inspirational especially for all the dreamers out there. Never give up it can be done! An amateur Ski jumper goes for it all in this epic emotional journey through trial and tribulation. Not even severe broken bones will be enough to push Eddie out of the spotlight. Good bad and indifferent he always seems to stay optimistic no matter how many times hes told he'll never be an athlete.For anyone out there currently struggling to remain positive about their life goals I highly recommend you see this movie. It may be just what you need to put that extra pep in your step!

A pretty good movie, just the right amount of lightheartedness with it and great storytelling, makes Ski Jumping a very interesting sport even to those not very familiar with it at all. Very highly recommended.

This is a great comedy about Eddie the Eagle. I knew it was a struggle for him but I didn't know the snobbery behind the Olympics Committee...it's well acted, well made and well funny. Definitely worth a watch even if you don't know who Eddie the Eagle is...!

It's sad that we live in a time of piracy and fast forwarding through life. This is a solid movie and was overlooked by many.

Taron Egerton is wonderfully awkward in this crowd-pleaser the likes of which don't seem to get made very often nowadays, at least not this succesfully. It's a nice little throwback to feel-good sport dramas like Rudy and especially Cool Runnings. Devoid of any cynisism and concerned only with leaving the audience cheering for the underdog. It's full of clichés, but also full of heart and positivity.
