Eddie Reviews

The next hour or so is filled with the Knicks committing turnovers, until a player tells Eddie they'll keep losing until she takes an interest in their personal lives. Wow!

A blessedly obscure little movie that you won't be finding on Whoopi's career highlights reel.

What saves the film from abomination is the basketball.

The basketball stuff is, as expected, well choreographed and shot.

Whoopi Goldberg se esforça ao máximo para prender a atenção do espectador, mas o roteiro (escrito por seis pessoas!) anula suas tentativas com uma história previsível e repleta de clichês.

| Original Score: 3/5

Whoopi Goldberg becomes the coach of the Knicks in this silly and utterly harmless sports comedy. Too bad it just isn't funny.

Full Review | Original Score: 2.5/5

One of those Whoopi Goldberg movies that makes you wonder about her career sense

| Original Score: 1/5

Basically moronic Whoopi basketball comedy.

| Original Score: 1.5/5

It's a fresh, funny, engaging picture that sets up an arresting situation and then follows through on it realistically.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/4

It's a movie that makes you feel cheated and offended, because someone came up with a poster and a marketing plan to which they had to attach an actual movie, and you had the nerve to believe it was going to be a comedy.

Full Review | Original Score: 1/10

There's no doubt she's funny, but she could be so much more.

Full Review | Original Score: 1/4

As long as the hoopsters mix it up with the Whoopster, it's fun. A second-string story keeps interrupting, though.

| Original Score: 2.5/4

If the people responsible for Eddie were trying to make a statement about greed in professional sports with this laughless comedy, they didn't just miss the shot -- they missed the rim, net and backboard completely.

Full Review | Original Score: 0/4

Even cameos from such NYC luminaries as Ed Koch, Rudy Giuliani, Donald Trump, Sirajul & Mujibar, and appearances from NBA legends Walt Frazier, Rodman, the Spurs, Kings, and Pacers can't save this foul dog. And no Billy Barty, to boot.

Avoid.

Full Review | Original Score: 1/5

Easy-going, safe and stale.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/5

A wretched roundball comedy.

This sounds like a sensational scenario, but, alas, almost everything in betweenis recycled out of lightweight sports-movie cliches, and the movie never captures the electricity and excitement of the real NBA.

Full Review | Original Score: 1.5/4

It's a dull, stale affair with suspenseless game sequences, humorless jokes, and pathetic drama.

Full Review | Original Score: 1.5/4

Eddie certainly would have been a mess without Goldberg to add an unexpected feminine view. It probably would have been a failure, too because she's the only thing drawing women to this sports picture.
