2019 • 85 minutes

About this movie

Dorian Yates changed bodybuilding forever. A six time Mr. Olympia champion, Dorian Yates ushered in a new era of bodybuilding physiques by showcasing a then unprecedented amount of mass that was previously seen as impossible. He is the greatest British bodybuilder that has ever lived. Now long since retired, Dorian has revolutionized the sport of bodybuilding with his iconic "blood and guts" training style, a machine-like focus that bordered on the peculiar, and rejecting the California bodybuilding scene that was the dominant influence on the industry from its inception. Dorian Yates: The Original Mass Monster chronicles the life and times of his storied career and the new life he created for himself post-bodybuilding. After facing depression and having his mental health collapse, he now prepares to embark to Costa Rica for a spiritual journey to explore the nature of his consciousness.

Ratings and reviews

Me encantaría poder ver esta película pero desgraciadamente no está disponible para mi país, por lo q me quedé deseoso d3 disfrutarla. He visto varios documentales de Generation Iron y soy fan de esta marca, espero algun dia acceder a este filme d Dorian. En realidad no puedo calificarla.

Really enjoyed the movie. Love Dorian and love blood and guts. This movie def captures the full scope of his life and career and there were some interesting things about his later life I didn't know until watching.

My parents and I got invited to see the Premiere of this film in Birmingham last week, was a pleasure to be there and watch it with Dorian himself (and family), amazing film, definitely recommend giving a watch! ✌️
