Pumping Iron (1977)

Lack of infos about bodybuilder life
19 June 2019
Warning: Spoilers
I watched the movie because I'm interested in the life of bodybuilders. I expected that the movie will show everything about the preparation of the Mr. Olympia, including workout plan and how hard a diet can be for a bodybuilding competition. After I watched it, i didn't feel about the film the way I wanted. Arnold Schwarzenegger showed that he is a bit unsportsmanlike because of giving bad advices to his opponents and making them nervous before the show. I understand that they should do anything for the trophie, but I think a 7x Olympia winner shouldn't behave like that.

Also, I'm glad they introduced the other competitors, but I'd rather show the competitors that reached higher places.
