Arnold: Netflix’s Take On The Bodybuilding Godfather

Now let me clue you in for a debate, what’s more challenging? To work as hard as Arnold Schwarzenegger or to pronounce his last name? This might be a funny argument but what’s not funny is that you can’t argue that Arnold is the living embodiment of the ‘American Dream’. On June 7th, you can stream this three-part documentary about Arnold on Netflix.

Now, in the ever-growing cosmos of celebrity documentaries, one on Arnold won’t hurt but if those documentaries don’t provide you with some new insides but just rumble on with how they made a business by themselves, it becomes boring.

What a journey he had, from bodybuilding to Hollywood to even revamping politics, he also faced plenty of backlash along the way. One of them is the sexual harassment allegations that he faced during his campaigns for the governor’s post. Not it’s not that he doesn’t deal with these allegations in the documentary, but he also never addresses them in an in-depth manner.

This collaboration between Arnold Schwarzenegger and Netflix seems like an image-revamping one for some viewers but this documentary also deals with some series issues. But that dealing was done on a very surface level.

Arnold Schwarzenegger as a character has depth, has multiple sides. But most of them.will be left undiscovered even when the documentary finishes. This will sound more like a success tale of Schwarzenegger rather than a chance to know him as a person.

Arnold already has a collaboration with Netflix and this is doing bonkers on the platform by becoming the most streamed show of the week. If you are a fan of his, this tale of success story is all yours, go and stream it on 7th June. But if you are outside that category, you can skip it.
