      Eddie the Eagle: Are You Ready to Face that Failure?

      I believe that just watching the trailer is enough to be enthusiastic, whether it is the cast: actor and "Ace Agent: Secret Service" actor Taron Egerton and Wolverine, Hugh Jackman's match, or the production. The people are created by the director of "X-Men: The First World War" and "Ace: The Secret Service": Matthew Vaughn and the production team of "Ace: The Secret Service". They are all eye-catching and vibrating. And in this film, the...

      This is Olympic Spirit

      I really enjoy this movie, no matter how ordinary the topic may seem to me. I love Olympic, people with skills and passion gathering around, competing, express themselves and show their own moment. I don't care who is the winner, who are the losers. Those I really care and like are who never giving up their tries and dreams, like "Eddie the Eagle"

      “The most important things in the Olympic Games is not the winning but the taking part. The important thing in life is not the triumph but...

      Why give 10 points, because seeing the end is very exciting and inspirational, just what I or everyone needs

      I watched this movie in two days. The protagonist was adapted from a real story. I was so excited that I was moved to tears at the end.

      I admire Eddie's perseverance. He can stick to his dreams. He has the spirit of never giving up, even if he fails, he doesn't care about worldly vision. I am also very envious of Eddie's family. Mom and Dad did not stop Eddie from moving forward. Eddie also lived up to his expectations. He made achievements that even exceeded everyone's expectations,...

      Fly beyond your dreams

      The disability of legs and feet still can't stop Eddie's participation and love for sports. He has been a sunny teenager who loves sports and has the courage to challenge since he was a child. He fell in love with alpine skiing uncontrollably. Those outstanding athletes who lost their lives in this sport did not make him retreat in fear. His heartfelt love and strong motivation in life made him devote himself to skiing and embrace The belief in victory embarked on an intense sporting journey...

      Sports inspirational film is a good medicine, mint flavor!

      finish watching! The whole person looks like a chicken blood:

      This is the reason why I like sports inspirational movies, no matter how old-fashioned the structure is and how bloody the story is, but this model can always inspire you to be like a warrior, and you will immediately want to try any sports to prove yourself!

      Okay, let's calm down and analyze this movie. It has a very intuitive teaching effect on our creation: it is typical to start from the male protagonist's...

      "The important thing in the Olympic Games is not the winning but the taking part. The important thing in life is not the triumph but the struggle." One of the charms of the Olympic Games is not the result, but the process of participation, because every Every athlete in the Olympics deserves a moment of glory of his own. Dreams and persistence are as important as talent. When you truly fall in love with a sport, you have the opportunity to create history and write...

      Such an old-fashioned narrative and subject matter, but it is so bloody! Uncle Hugh's long legs that have nowhere to go! ! ! taron baby you are so cute! Uncle Hugh didn't even wear protective gear in that jump, I'm not handsome! Remember when they interviewed that Eddie's British record was quickly broken, but his actions inspired a lot of people >

    Evaluation action

    "Eddie the Eagle" is direct and frank, like an inspiring fresh air, exciting. When the audience watched, they would have a big smile at the corner of their mouths, and they would cheer for their dialogue and interesting performances. Taron Egerton perfectly balances the character with embarrassment and cuteness. Hugh Jackman is as charming as ever. From the cynicism before to the sincere encouragement, it is very touching   .
