About this movie

In the highly competitive sport of bodybuilding, Shawn "Flexatron" Rhoden has risen to become one of the best athletes in the world. But his rise to glory didn't begin in the gym. Born on the island of Jamaica, Shawn saw his early success nearly derailed by death, depression and alcohol. After two failed suicide attempts, Rhoden decided to change his life's path. Through the love and support of his family and dedication to the gym, he returned to the sport and years later, finally won the Mr. Olympia title in 2018. But this is not just a bodybuilding story, but rather a story of how bodybuilding inspired change and saved a life; the life of Shawn Rhoden.

Ratings and reviews

I found that a really long, arduous watch. I kept waiting/hoping it was going to get interesting....That didn't happen. In terms of being inspiring, the only motivation I found was the compulsion to turn it off. I'll try and watch the last bit another time...but right now I cant face another 10 minutes :/ Zzzzzz......

Such a great movie! So inspiring how to face life adversities and become the best from the ashes. God bless you all

I wouldnt recommend. ALL Thumbs DOWN!
