Critic Reviews for Eddie
All Critics (33) | Top Critics (10) | Fresh (5) | Rotten (28)
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!
What saves the film from abomination is the basketball.
It's a fresh, funny, engaging picture that sets up an arresting situation and then follows through on it realistically.
As long as the hoopsters mix it up with the Whoopster, it's fun. A second-string story keeps interrupting, though.
Ms. Goldberg has everything it takes -- terrific lungs, endless wisecracks, that ear-to-ear grin -- to play the New York Knicks fan who is the star of this Cinderella story.
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.
Audience Reviews for Eddie
Whoopi is hilarious, and has got real-life Knicks fans thinking 'Why couldnt this happen in real-life?'
Super Reviewer
Whoopi Goldberg rocks, and this was surprisingly good to have went so unnoticed...it's all the way live!
Super Reviewer
Whoopi Goldberg's quite fine performance but a bit hilarious as the coach of her obsessive fan NBA basketball team after winning a contest to join in.
