Product Description

Comedy sports drama directed by Dexter Fletcher and inspired by the true life story of Michael Edwards or 'Eddie the Eagle', Britain's most famous ski jumper. Taron Egerton stars as the title character, who, with the support of his trainer Bronson Peary (Hugh Jackman) trains for and competes in the 1988 Calgary Winter Olympics. The first British skier to qualify for the Winter Olympics, the entirely self-funded far-sighted plasterer became an emblem for the British ability to heroically fail. The story follows Eddie on his Olympic journey which famously saw him finish last in both of the events he competed in.

... this feel-good biopic about lovable underdog Eddie Edwards a sweet, if a bit generic

Reviewed in the United States on August 23, 2016

Verified Purchase

Egerton and Jackman are charming enough to make this feel-good biopic about lovable underdog Eddie Edwards a sweet, if a bit generic, treat. As he did in Kingsman: The Secret Service, Egerton again plays a working-class English bloke who winds up doing something extraordinary. Egerton plays down his considerable polish to appear more like the slightly goofy-looking Eddie; he inhabits the character with the earnestness and guileless discipline that you'd believe is historically accurate. And Jackman's hard-drinking Bronson is the ideal foil -- a man jaded and angry at how he long ago threw away his own Olympic promise.

Director Dexter Fletcher stays true to the movie's predictable underdog plotine: there are comical-but-inspiring training montages, an ongoing suggestive joke about how ski-jumping is like sex (it's all about the release), and intimidating antagonists (in this case, Eddie's father -- who thinks he's wasting his time pursuing an impossible dream -- as well as the Scandinavians and the snobby British Olympic officials, who are offended by Eddie's belief that he deserves his place among the Olympians). While it's not quite Rocky -- the portrayal of Eddie is a bit too vanilla to qualify as well rounded -- this is a simple, sweet story about one man who defied the odds to make his dreams come true.

GREAT FUN TO WATCH FILM

Reviewed in the United States on September 29, 2016

Do you wanna feel good?
Do you want to have a marvelous evening with a feel good movie?
This movie was made this year and I mean it if you watch this film, you will feel good for at least 3 days.
This guy Eddie has at least 3 reasons that he cannot go to the Olympics and win the Sky Jump race.
1. He was crippled when he was young and that made him keeping from not able to be practice properely in his early age not like other athlates. He is already late and more over, he is not even made up his mind what kind of item he will choose and it was the very last minute that he made up his mind that he saw the ski track and he said it was a vision and he finally thinks that it is cool looking and he will do that for the olympic.
2. UK his country does not support the ski jumping at all since they don't have budget for that.
3. Eddie has no idea at all, I mean at all how to do the ski jump and it is absolutely dangerous to do so. He is still not like others, his jaws are not normal, he still is not 100% like normal.

But what he is good at?
He never give up, I mean he really never never never give up that is hillarious and that makes us really think and makes us so so happy.
We all should really be happy about it.

When we see his final competition and see him does the game playing we all will stop our heart and maybe it will never beat again!!

We will fall in love with him and maybe even if you are a man you will ask him to marry him.

This movie has nothing to do with tears, dark shadow or anything that is related to unhapiness.
It will make you feel that you are lucky to see this film and you are alive.

Grab this movie and enjoy that we are alive and the fact that we are with this fun to watch film.
Although some of them are complaining that the story line is a bit loose It really doesn't seem that much since the film itself is a marvelously charactor driven one and it really is a successive one.

Enjoy.

You'll Want to Stand Up and Cheer

Reviewed in the United States on October 27, 2018

I'm generally not a fan of fanciful high-action thrillers, so when Hugh Jackman of "Wolverine" fame was billed as one of the primary characters in this film, I wasn't particularly thrilled. However, my son recommended "Eddie the Eagle" highly, so I thought I'd give it a try. I loved it so much I bought the DVD, and it has become one of my all-time favorite films; certainly in my top 20, if not the Top Ten. Most of us like movies about the disadvantaged guy who manages to come out on top, but a completely separate class should be created for this film. It has a great story line, humor, terrific acting, and more heart than any movie I've ever seen. Although loosely based on a true story, the simplicity and determination of the main character, Eddie Edwards, has been brilliantly preserved and comes through with flying colors onscreen. The producer, director, and stunt coordinator--indeed, everyone connected--have all gone to extraordinary lengths to portray accurately the actual conditions, equipment, and skiing techniques in use during the time period in the 1970s and '80s during which the film is set. The action shots are stunning, like nothing ever seen in any movie about skiing, ever. Except for one scene with Jackman, it's all real--NO CGI or computer-generated effects. Initially, stuntmen who ski well were tapped for the action shots and told they would have to use the same, identical equipment in use back then. They came, looked at the actual ski jumps they would have to ski down, and said, "Forget it. You're going to have to get professional, competitive ski jumpers." An interview with Hugh Jackman in Extra Features sums it up perfectly. Basically, he says, "You're gonna love this movie. It'll make your heart sing." He was right; it does. Be sure you buy the edition with the Extra Features to watch how they filmed the real, live, action shots. Whether you're a fan of ski jumping or not, it's totally amazing.

Sweet and Inspirational

If there was one thing Eddie Edwards never let stop him, it was the word 'no'. And while this movie takes its share of creative licenses and embellishes Eddie's true story, that doesn't make it any less heartwarming, fun, and inspirational. Taron Egerton, fresh off the success of Kingsman: The Secret Service, does a complete 180 from his role of Eggsy and brings the sweet Eddie to life, complete with thick glasses, an underbite, and a smile that is impossible not to reciprocate, while Hugh Jackman takes on the role of a fictional coach who at first is dead set against the unqualified 'athlete' even attempting the jumps but soon becomes his biggest fan.

The movie is truly a delight and something I would watch with anyone at anytime. I love it!

I bought this for a laugh and i quite enjoyed it, by no means a classic but its worth a watch.

Don't go expecting 'Cool Runnings on Skis' because it's an unfair comparison as (a) no film of this type is ever gonna be as good as Cool Runnings and (b) CR was highly dramatised for the sake of a better story; from the characters, to the results, to the politics, it's only very, very loosely based on reality. This film is (more or less) trying to tell you the actual story of Eddie; when -at his best - he jumped 30m worse than the rest of the field, the film doesn't make out he missed by inches, it shows him as he was, miles away from being international class. So why make a film of a loser?

Well, as a kid in the 1980s I always viewed Eddie's skijumping as 'glass half empty' because he was not remotely in the same class as the top Pros, he was up to 40m behind them. What this film shows beautifully, is to think about Eddie the other way, that his performance was 'glass half full', because this was a Plasterer taking up the sport in his 20s who risked life & limb to jump 40m FURTHER than anyone else might have given the same circumstances. The fact he even attempted the big hills is (and I say this as someone who has tried plenty of jumps & tricks on ski holidays) absolutely staggering - that he landed some of those jumps is incredible.

The biggest theme of the story, is arguably not skijumping at all, but about Eddie; about his drive, his struggle and his risk-taking. You get a great sense of why he did what he did, his life-long mission to represent his country, and also how ridiculously brave he was. Far from the 1980s cartoon imagery of a daft Brit who got famous for being mediocre, you find a man who literally risked his life - not because he thought he could win - but because he had to try his best, he refused to give up, he had to try and get to the Olympics.

Taron Egerton does a really good job of playing Eddie - he really captures the uniqueness and the quiet inner steel.
Hugh Jackman's role is the film's one shameless copy&paste Hollywoodism (washed-up ex-star with alcohol issues, turns his life around finally becoming a good guy, redemption etc.) Considering most viewers have a fair idea about how Eddie's story turned out you might argue that the co-lead's story should not have been entirely predictable from the first 30 seconds he's on screen - but never mind. In fairness, Jackman brings a vital bit of pizzaz and the interplay with Egerton is warmly played.

The extras - including interviews with the man himself - are q satisfying, and I certainly now see the Legend, Eddie 'the Eagle' Edwards in a new light. Now i'm not sure we need a film about 'Eric the Eel'... but maybe I need to be educated about him too.
