Anyone seen Eddie the Eagle?

Hello.

I was wondering if anyone has seen Eddie the Eagle.
I have seen the advert for the movie and some interviews with the actors and I am in two minds whether to go and see it.

The film looks interesting...and I do love Hugh Jackman!
But to me this movie looks like it is going to be good or rather lame and possibly a touch crude.
I like “mild” and “family” films that have no or little violence and swearing and do not have crude and adult content.

I do love to go to the cinema because it is an exiting trip out for me (Sad I know, lol) But it is rare that I go the cinema to see a film where I do not have a remote to fast-forward any parts I don’t like lol
So I like to make it count whenever I do get to go to the cinema and I only go if I think the movie is going to be good

Have you seen Eddie The Eagle? If so what did you think of it?
Should I go and see it, or should I just wait and rent the dvd?

What's the movie about?

[imagineer]

It is and underdog story.
It is based on a true story about some guy who decides he wanted to ski in the Olympics in the 80’s, and he surprises everyone and became rather famous for it.

Hugh Jackman plays his coach, although in real life he did not have just one coach but tones of people helping and giving him tips, but for film making purposes they they amalgamated all of those people into one character.

Here it the trailer if you are interested: www.youtube.com/watch?v=6FWAiXll_jw
