Though it aims for heroism, Edwards' story doesn't have a dramatic enough arc to be truly inspirational. It's not about winning, it's an ode to participation, which isn't enough for it to get off the ground.

Egerton is a likeable hero -- as he was in Kingsman -- and the movie can easily claim a respectable third place on the podium.

Eddie the Eagle is one of those underdog sports stories we all love so much, with an excellent performance from the likeable, empathetic Hugh Jackman.
September 06, 2016
A rousing underdog film about an Olympic ski-jumper that will send you home with hope in your heart.
January 01, 2017
As Egerton's gurning, one-note performance is beginning to lose its charm, Jackman's A-list grit arrives just in time.
February 26, 2016
It is a rare biopic of any kind, let alone a sports bio, that merely celebrates participation. It's that novelty that makes this simple comedy shine.

Taron Egerton reproduces Eddie's offbeat charm, turning him into an Asperger's afflicted champion of the undertrodden.

Watching this eagle take to the sky still manages to be a cheery delight.
February 26, 2016
For every easy, eye-rolling bit, there's a moment of genuine emotion; the champion jumper's pre-climax speech on what matters in sport is downright joyful.
August 12, 2016
With his milk-bottle glasses, jutting chin and fuzzy moustache, plucky British ski jumper Eddie 'The Eagle' Edwards... remains an endearing figure of fun in this feel-good sporting romp.
February 26, 2016
While it's often cookie-cutter sports movie conventional, you'd have to be stone-hearted to remain un-charmed.
February 28, 2016
Eddie the Eagle tries to have it both ways with its main subject, simultaneously ridiculing and ennobling him. And, amazingly, it mostly works.
