Iron Temple

Not a big documentary fan more action for me. But this kept my interest throughout, especially the narrative part. I recommend this as a good inspiration story.

Captivating and perfectly written to depict Tony to a 'T'. The fact that the Director, Aaron Abelto, created a new genre with his Docu-Narrative is absolutely Brilliant! Must watch!

Based on the really interesting true story. Good scenario, cast, filming and music! This movie makes you think on some things. Definitely worth watching!

A unique take on a biopic meets docudrama, of an equally unique life. This movie has it all, dreams, motivation, trials and tribulations, friendship, setbacks and comebacks! Very entertaining, well cast and definitely worth watching.

A few weeks ago, I decided to go to the movie theaters for the first time during the COVID-19 pandemic but I didn't want to see the same old superhero action movie and I stumbled upon Iron Temple. Sitting down in the movie theater I knew the film had to do with bodybuilding but I had no idea what would unfold after that. It was an amazing story about perseverance in a man who went to great lengths to reach his goals. In this pandemic, it's easy to lose motivation but hearing what our protagonist went through and all the obstacles in his life was very very inspiring. I had no idea that the real protagonist portrayed himself in the movie and for never having acted before I thought his performance was brilliant. For those of you who love real life stories and documentaries I would highly recommend this film. It has a balance of camera footage and movie scenes with acting, which are blended perfectly together to make a well-crafted and engaging documentary, which is the first I have ever seen done in a film before.
