Product Description: Inspired by true events, Eddie the Eagle is a feel-good story about Michael "Eddie" Edwards (Taron Egerton), an unlikely but courageous British ski-jumper who never stopped believing in himself - even as an entire nation was counting him out. With the help of a rebellious and charismatic coach (played by Hugh Jackman), Eddie takes on the establishment and wins the hearts of sports fans around the world by making an improbable and historic showing at the 1988 Calgary Winter Olympics. From producers of Kingsman: The Secret Service, Eddie the Eagle stars Taron Egerton as Eddie, the loveable underdog with a never say die attitude.

Weekend Box-Office: GODS OF EGYPT No Match For DEADPOOL

"Deadpool" held his own at the top of the box-office for a third consecutive week while big-budget epic "Gods of Egypt" flopped in second place. The other new wide releases "Eddie the Eagle" and "Triple 9" also had a hard time in the Top 10.

In Theaters: GODS OF EGYPT, TRIPLE 9, EDDIE THE EAGLE, CROUCHING TIGER, HIDDEN DRAGON: SWORD OF DESTINY

It's the Oscars weekend, and ironically, there aren't any amazing new movies out in theaters. We have the Razzie-worthy fantasy epic "Gods of Egypt" which has prompted some furious reactions from critics, and then there are the crime thriller "Triple 9" and the biopic "Eddie the Eagle", both of which received a lukewarm reception. In limited release you can catch the sequel "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon: Sword of Destiny", although even this one doesn't seem to be very good. More about each movie after the jump.

New EDDIE THE EAGLE Clips, Featurettes and Posters

The semi-fictional biopic "Eddie the Eagle" opens today in theaters, so here are some new clips, featurettes and posters.

The critics weren't all that happy with the film's ode to participation. While the feel-good inspirational tone and contagious enthusiasm work for the most part, it's certainly nothing new despite the rather unique true story it's based on, and it ultimately succumbs to genre cliches.

Directed by Dexter Fletcher ("Wild Bill"), the film stars Taron Egerton, Hugh Jackman, Christopher Walken, Jo Hartley and Edvin Endre.
