Muscle Movies: What are the top muscle movies of all time?

[George Spellwin]

Bros,

I am working on an article about the top muscle movies of all time and I need your help.

Here's my list of the top muscle movies in no particular order:

Hercules – 1958
X-Men Origins: Wolverine – 2009
Bloodsport – 1988
300 – 2007
Conan the Barbarian – 1982
Fight Club – 1999
The Rocky Series – 1979 to 2006


And here's a link to the article on the top muscle movies of all time. What do you think are the top muscle movies ever made?

 

[Nelson Montana]

It's one of the worst movies of all time but the Rocky with Dolf has both guys in amazing shape.

 

[ConanX]

Most Arnold movies....Predator, Commando, Terminators, etc

Of course, the one and only, Pumpin' Iron...but that was more of a documentary than a movie

No crazy muscle but the movie Troy.

You can prob pick a Vin Diesel movie or 2 also.

how about "American History X"?

in addition to a pumped up ed norton, several of the guys in the prison scenes look darn good.

 

[rnch]

has anyone watched the old classic "how to catch a millionaire"?

there's one poolside scene with jane russell surrounded by with what is supposed to be the American olympic swim team..those guys were in darn good shape for the time period.

and of course "top gun".

Very true. I cannot believe the shape Norton got in for that movie. Prisons house some incredible physiques. Which brings the question to mind how important is diet. I mean look at what some of these guys eat very under on cals. I however am a firm believer in diet and think it is very important!

Technically, it is a documentary film, but Pumping Iron is my all time favorite muscle movie!

The movie soldier comes to mind, and pretty much any arnold movie.
