Critic Reviews of "Pumping Iron"
TIME MagazineAugust 03, 2008A very good film, beautifully shot and edited, intelligently structured and -- to risk what will surely seem at first a highly inappropriate term -- charming.
VarietyMarch 14, 2007The most fascinating aspect of this film is the dedicated training that turns average-built young men (frequently they refer to themselves as weaklings in their early youth) into superbly-created physical edifices.
Time OutJune 24, 2006The movie is a very shrewd mixture of documentary and realistic fiction, put together with both eyes and ears on entertainment value.
New York TimesMay 09, 2005An interesting, rather slick and excessively long documentary about the small but intensely competitive world of body-building.

Atlantic City WeeklyApril 06, 2007Arnold's "reality" debut
Empire MagazineMarch 14, 2007Fascinating stuff when viewed in the context of Arnie's now notorious political career.
TV GuideMarch 14, 2007Directors George Butler and Robert Fiore never allow their film to turn into a freak show, but neither do they illuminate the appeal of body building, either to those who participate or those who watch.
