Film Review: Eddie The Eagle

I went to see Adam Riches in Coach Coach at the Soho Theatre the other week and I thought that managed to squeeze in every sports movie cliche in the book. But then last night I saw Eddie the Eagle and I think Riches might have been trumped. This film has it all, from alcoholic coach seeking redemption to working class hero going for gold. The only thing it doesn’t have is working class hero winning gold. But as the film’s pay-off says, winning isn’t everything, doing your best is.
