Good submitted by DL on July 17, 2016, 5:22pm An inspiring family film based on the 1988 winter Olympian Eddie Edwards. Loved the story and found myself cheering for Eddie a second time the first in 1988 as I watched the Olympics.

great submitted by carolinepbg on August 25, 2016, 8:02pm This is such a good movie.

Better than I expected submitted by mmckenzie on August 30, 2016, 8:51pm I appreciated that the movie didn't make Eddie out to be a fool. It put his drive to be in the Olympics in context. Hugh Jackman did a nice job, too. Well done movie.

Olympic Spirit submitted by shumoon on November 12, 2016, 8:30am One of the best sports movies ever. In the comedic tradition of Cool Runnings and inspirational like Invictus.

Great! submitted by ferielp on June 23, 2017, 12:20pm Inspirational without once making you pity the character for the hurdles he overcame. We could all use Eddie's passion and drive in our lives.
