We could be a proper country again if Disney would just give us one of these super solid inspirational sports movies every year like they used to
Patrick WillemsJul 20, 2024Girl just wanted to swim. Well, that led to so much more. There’s something so inspiring about people who fight to be anywhere but where they are. The courage not to accept what’s given. Daisy Ridley’s phenomenal and paired with a superior sports drama here.
KyloDec 23, 2024Joachim Rønning has directed the worst Pirates movie, an utterly bizarre Maleficent sequel that’s a metaphor for Trump-Hillary, and this plucky little Disney classic sports inspirer. For his next act, he will direct the third Tron movie. Insane career.

Quite shocked by how much I was pulled in by YOUNG WOMAN AND THE SEA. Daisy Ridley’s endearing performance as Trudy Ederle, the first woman to swim across the English Channel, is a constant delight. Possibly my favorite performance from her yet. But the real star is Amelia…

This movie is fantastic. Although they took a few liberties for the movie, they still stuck very closely to the true story. This is such a powerful movie that brought me to tears. Top ten movie for me this year so far!
zxki is "meh" onYoung Woman and the SeaSaw the trailer to this and before anything the title put me off, sounds generic as can be. The casting put me on though. I was looking forward to maybe some epic visuals, which there are, but not on the level of me recommending it. The story itself gets annoying quite a bit. As heartwarming and…
Alex likedYoung Woman and the SeaWOW! this was an amazing movie! I had the privilege of watching it with Daisy Ridley. The action, storytelling, and acting were just perfect. I was really invested, especially in how some people were trying to sabotage her. I'm so happy she achieved her goal—it was inspirational☺️

I'm disappointed to give this a mid rating, as it had great potential and looked promising in the trailers. Daisy Ridley has like 3 lines total, the victory feels unearned, and the setbacks and villains are clichéd. It's a shame to see such a important story fall flat like this.
Hardcore Epic Fanboy-Stan-Worshiper likedYoung Woman and the SeaA pretty solid coming of age movie. It’s nothing groundbreaking and definitely has issues, but it makes for a solidly fun time. The characters are likable, the story is investing, and the acting is good. Overall, just a good movie, that’s worth a watch if you’re curious.
Jana lovedYoung Woman and the SeaI just really love films like this about amazing athletic accomplishments in the face of such negativity and skepticism. Humans have done such incredible things. Trudy was a groundbreaking inspiration for women athletes. As a former swimmer I adored this.

A very interesting movie about a real superwoman! And I don't know if the jellyfish wall part is real, but...DAMN. Wow. I shed a few tears at the end. What a story. What a movie... AND WHAT A WOMAN!
Mcfly1202 lovedYoung Woman and the SeaIt’s truly amazing how different it was back in the day. What she did was truly a feat of stamina, strength and min over matter. Dealing with those freezing cold temps. Simply incredible!
Skyler Burgess lovedYoung Woman and the SeaSolid sporting movie! I’d totally watch again a few times. Pretty interesting story and her impact on athleticism in New York at the time. Makes me want to go for a swim hehe

Young Woman and the Sea doesn’t reinvent the genre in any way, but it keeps us engrossed for every strenuous stroke.

With “Young Woman and the Sea,” Gertrude “Trudy” Ederle finally gets the movie she deserves.

Based on Glenn Stout’s nonfiction account of the same title, “Young Woman and the Sea” gets by on the careful engineering of clichés, Daisy Ridley and a really good piece of irresistibly rousing history.
