The documentary film follows legendary stuntman Eddie Braun as he attempts one of the most dangerous stunts in history. Contemplating retirement and having survived over three decades of hellacious car crashes, explosions, high falls and death-defying leaps, Eddie decides to complete what his childhood hero never finished – the infamous Snake River Canyon rocket jump – an audacious televised event that almost killed famed daredevil, Evel Knievel.

It gets caught up in its own logistics in a way that's a bit of a drag, but Eddie Braun is a fascinating character. Go to Full Review
Dennis Harvey Variety Jul 22, 2021
Well-crafted, the film's appeal nonetheless depends greatly on whether you find Braun's quest brave and inspiring or sort of a pointless childhood dream that did not require adult actualization. Go to Full Review

3/5
Judging by how seared into Eddie Braun's young imagination Evel Knievel's 1974 attempt to rocket across an Idaho canyon was, this film could leave a similarly lasting impression on viewers today. Go to Full Review
Johnny Loftus Decider Jul 27, 2021

Andy Klein FilmWeek (LAist) Jul 27, 2021
A great tribute to Eddie Braun. Go to Full Review
Matt Lynch In Review Online Jul 23, 2021
But ultimately, Stuntman is a sincerely affecting and tense document of this notably more humble undertaking." Go to Full Review
