    I just saw it today.

    Kind of long - definitely could have been edited down a lot, but overall I give it a positive review. It did a good job of explaining what steroids are and what they aren't, and pointing out what BS all the media hysteria is.. Definitely takes the position that steroids are over-regulated and the risks and dangers are over-exaggerated.

    Greg Valentino makes an appearance and despite being his usual douchebag self, sounded surprisingly level headed at times.

    Hopefully some of mainstream america will see it and open their eyes, but the theater was pretty empty, so i doubt it.

    Because it was only SELECT theaters.

    I cant wait for it to go on video, and for people to rent it

    I wonder why other films were allowed in theaters, but this one pertaining to AAS in a POSITIVE manner is allowed so scarcely to be seen.

    I think it's just demand. Not that many people want to pay $12 (or at the Arclight theater in LA, $20) to see a documentary about steroids. They'd rather see Iron Man

    I heard Leonard Maltin talking about it tonight, he said it was a well made movie, and showed some clips from it.... but, then again, Maltin like the movie Gorgo (UK version of a Godzilla type monster)....
