This movie's got tons of heart. / It's somewhat repetitive, at times. How many times do we see Eddie failing, sitting at the family dinner table discussing this, only for him to reaffirm he must be an Olympian (queue the cheeky grin)? Halfway through the movie, even I wanted Eddie to just accept the facts and give up.

Flying along with Taron Egerton's Eddie the Eagle has been a pure joy for me. The way he defies his country's corrupt Olympic Association and his genuine pleasure about being a part of a record that will be remembered for generations to come is intoxicatingly inspiring. Hugh Jackman's portrayal of Eddie's coach is also excellent, conveying the concept of a friend or parent like teacher, that is such a crucial message for teachers around the world. All in all excellent work, all of you.

I had watched this for a few times now and i don't regret it. This movie is so inspiring and it motivates me all the time. When other people said that I could not do it, I remember of Eddie (Taron Egerton <3) he never gave up. So you would not regret watching it. I am really glad knowing this movie, I would have gave up to a lot of things if it not because this movie. I loved this movie so much, it not only contained action and adventure but it also contained some comedy as well. But what brings out this movie so much is that kids, teenagers, adults have to know is never to gave up, try your best. Such an amazing movie. ( I cried because how good is the movie)
