Wonderful character development!

Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.
Robert Joyner
The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

I watched this movie out of a morbid curiosity. This is not something I understand, not do I think it is something to be proud of.That being said it did help me understand the psychological nature of these people. They are quite odd in what they do and how obsessed they get. I don't think it is something good.One telling part was when they got into steroid use and only one guy was willing to talk about it, and a woman who was not a bodybuilder. It is such a taboo topic that nearly all of them would not touch the subject.If steroid use is what assists them in getting that far, shouldn't we talk about it? But they know it is bad and harmful at the same time and people feel like it is cheating doing it, so it is avoided.One thing particularly strange is how their back muscles stand out so much and this is supposed to be a good thing. It looks so unnatural. They make them brown so their muscles stand out too.Some characters I was interested in a lot more then others. I would have liked to have seen more about their personal lives.It wasn't a bad documentary, although I felt it could have been more interesting then it was. I didn't find the narration good either.Good look into the lives of bodybuilders if you want one, but this is more about wanting to do their silly muscle show thing and what it took to get there. I would have been more interested in their personal lives and psychological aspects.

Directed and Written by Vlad Yudin, GENERATION IRON is produced by Yudin and Edwin Mejia. Jerome Gary, producer of the cult classic PUMPING IRON, which helped make Arnold Schwarzenegger a household name, was also tapped to executive produce. GENERATION IRON provides insight into the professional sport of bodybuilding today and follows these men as they compete on the International stage. Yudin followed seven current athletes from around the world, including New York, Los Angeles, Japan, and Germany.Mickey Rourke narrates the film, with appearances by Arnold Schwarzenegger, Lou Ferrigno and Jay Cutler.

A documentary that follows top bodybuilders as they train to compete in the Mr. Olympia competition. The trains of bodybuilding and righteousness can't be stopped and their movement brings about reactive forces in the people they affect. The cinematography is stark and bare, with only the soundtrack adding some effect. Other than that, it was an okay film, and I would recommend that people watch it. It's an amazing work and everything I had hoped for. From an artistic standpoint, it holds its own. With good narration from all involved, I have to give this one a final and well deserved rating of 7 out of 10, so check it out now.

Gives an insight to the misunderstood sport of bodybuilding. Great movie that everyone can enjoy and learn from. Has all the top bodybuilder and it shows every ones individual personality that allows you to understand each one and get to know his life story. The movie really focuses on each bodybuilders life story and their goals in life to achieve their ultimate goal to be crowned Mr.Olympia. It really shows that its incredibly hard to become a pro bodybuilder and to even be qualified to compete in the Mr.Olympia contest. Shows the incredible hard work and dedication that these diverse athletes face. The movie is one of my all time favorites that i have ever watched and will enjoy watching it again.
