Bigger Stronger Faster*
Is it still cheating if everyone's doing it?
Synopsis
Bigger Stronger Faster* (2008) is Chris Bell's documentary you can watch online on iFILM. The director turns the lens on his own household: he and his two brothers grew up worshipping Arnold Schwarzenegger, Hulk Hogan and Sylvester Stallone — and all three ended up using steroids.
Rather than preach, Bell asks questions. He sits down with his brothers, doctors, coaches, athletes and politicians to figure out why a country obsessed with being the biggest and the fastest quietly folded performance-enhancing drugs into its own dream. One brother chases pro wrestling, the other a powerlifting record. The camera catches the swagger and the bill that comes with it.
What makes it stick is the refusal to settle for an easy verdict — the tagline says it plainly: is it still cheating if everyone's doing it? Smart and a little wry, it's a treat for anyone who likes sports docs that argue with themselves. Stream Bigger Stronger Faster* (2008) online on iFILM.
