ExNotes Review: Arnold

By Joe Berk

Susie and I were channel surfing on Netflix a few nights ago and a new documentary popped up:  Arnold.

Arnold is a three part series (one hour each) documentary on the life and times of our former governor and my all-time favorite actor, Arnold Schwarzenegger.  The series was very well done, it is told by Arnold himself (interspersed with comments by folks who figured prominently in his life, including James Cameron, Danny DeVito, and others), and in a word, it was great.  The three segments cover the Governator’s early life and body building career, his movie career, and his stint as governor of California.  The show doesn’t pull any punches, and the last segment includes the affair with his housekeeper and the son he had with her.

I’d heard of Arnold Schwarzenegger and sort of had a vague idea that he was a movie star/body builder before the movie Terminator was released.  When I saw Terminator and Terminator II and I thought he was great in both.  Then I saw Predator, and I liked him even more.  I watched (or rented the VHS tape back in those days) of just about everything he’s ever done.  When Arnold ran for governor of California, he had my vote both times.  I’m a fan.  I like the guy.

If you are a Netflix subscriber, queue up and watch Arnold.  You’ll like it.
