Review of Eddie the Eagle (2016) by Mahmus — 25 Sep 2020
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.
A feel-good movie in the best sense.
