Review of Eddie the Eagle (2016) by Jimmy W — 28 Feb 2017
On Wikipedia they say: "Eddie the Eagle's amiable sweetness can't disguise its story's many inspirational clichés - but for many viewers, it will be more than enough to make up for them."[22] On Metacritic the film has a score of 54 out of 100, based on 34 critics, indicating "mixed or average reviews".[23] Audiences polled by CinemaScore gave the film an average grade of "A" on an A+ to F scale.[24].
Alonso Duralde of TheWrap wrote, "Eddie the Eagle is designed for audiences who will throw their weight behind the film's schmaltz and sentimentality. Anyone unwilling to commit to the movie's shamelessness will feel like they've hit the ground headfirst."[25] proving their jadedness. They do not present all the positive reviews (here 80%) and again try to make fun of him, shame him! I loved the movie.
