Movie Review: Bigger, Stronger, Faster

Competition is everything in this day an age, and we all try to strive to be the best even with the help of certain drugs. Bigger, Stronger, Faster, is a documentary about these performance enhancing drugs (namely anabolic steroids) and their effect on culture. From our sports heroes to movie stars, to the magazine ads, there is an over abundance of being perfect. This movie interestingly exemplifies this trait in our culture.
My only drawback about this film, is it feels that it doesn't really have a resolution. They gathered a lot of information and got great interviews, but they couldn't figure out a one shot answer (or maybe that's how it's supposed to be). Despite this drawback, I did find this movie to be a good one to watch.
