'Bigger, Stronger, Faster'
By examining the impact of steroids on American popular sports and culture, Chris Bell, the director of Bigger, Stronger, Faster, exposes something that Michael Moore's documentary Roger & Me exposed nearly 20 years ago: America is less the land of milk and honey and more the land of very sad people.

This review makes the movie sound depressing. It isn't, it's AMAZING, and the best movie I’ve seen this year. It is funny, really thought provoking and has hilarious throw back clips of 80’s hulk culture clips and music. Comparing the movie to anything Michael Moore has done is unfair, since this doc is not a biased, holier than thou diatribe at the ‘powers that be.’ it’s a thoughtful, balanced and humorous look at a really pervasive and influential drug and how it can effect a family as well as a country. See it.
This was one of the top film picks by the Fool Serious group of SIFF passholders.
If you want to see a documentary like this, this is a good choice.
Saw it. Loved it.
