Documenting Arnold was a star before Arnold was a star,
By A Customer
This review is from: Pumping Iron: The 25th Anniversary [DVD] [1977] [Region 1] [US Import] [NTSC] (DVD)
You will never get a better chance to see a movie star in embryonic form than watching 28-year old Austrian body builder Arnold Schwarzenegger in this 1976 documentary about bodybuilding. Arnold is "Pumping Iron" to win his sixth straight Mr. Olympia title and the future Terminator steals the spotlight from his competitors (including Lou Ferrigno in his pre-Incredible Hulk days) with relative ease. Directors George Butler and Robert Fiore capture the world of competitive bodybuilding on film, but it is Arnold who makes it all seem like such a noble effort. With his natural charm and his single-minded determination, it is easy in retrospect to see why he became such a box officer star. This is a man who has always been comfortable with who he is and what he is doing. Even if you find the sight of muscular men covered in oil to be somewhat disquieting (I am pleading guilty here), you will find this look at their world to be both fascinating and insightful.

Motivating and fascinating,

This review is from: Pumping Iron [VHS] (VHS Tape)
Enter the crazy world of body building in 1975 with Arnie accompanied by Lou Ferrigno, Mike Katz and Franco Columbo. It's a documentary that focuses on Arnie and his main competitor - Lou Ferrigno. You get to see the crazy workouts that each guy has to endure, but you also see Arnie demotivating and playing mind tricks with Lou. Overall this is a superb film for any weight training fan, and I can definitely recommend this as a motivational and entertaining film - excellent stuff.

Pumping Iron gets you Pumping!,
By R.B (UK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Pumping Iron - Special Edition [DVD] [1977] (DVD)
Arrived on time!
This film is very very motivational from start to finish. It just shows that Arnie is one of the best bodybuilders known to mankind. This video would make you want to go to the Gym and start pumping iron. Being a big Arnie fan - this video makes you understand the principal behind bodybuilding and how hard it is to achieve so much. His advice really gets you on track. This video also features many other bodybuilders and how they train to compete together with Arnie. The special features are awesome. They give you an insight on how to train and also how Arnie still uses his bodybuilding principle to everything he does - making him very successful. Must watch and must have is you love working out. The menu works!
