It was just put up about an hour ago at http://robustothemovie.com/

Just finished watching it. The production quality was really good and it kept my attention for 40 minutes or whatever it was. I also thought it was cool to hear the dad's/family's perspective on the whole thing. But I felt it was too negative for many of the parts. Always talking about him losing money and being stuck however many tens of thousands. Besides the talk of SNGs there really wasn't anything mentioning him even winning money. What did you guys think?

I thought exactly the same. I really liked it...BUT...it felt like it was only PART ONE of the story. I was sitting there watching the end credits and thinkin, WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED TO MR.X????? In ANY good movie, Mr.X has to lose -- and the Hero always beats the villain AND gets the woman (happily ever after). Smile

One very positive note. He inspired me to get back to working out and running starting tomorrow morning. He's got that part absolutely right. He's definitely thinking like a professional - except for all of the partying which will eventually catch up with him -- if he is doing it all of the time. Smile

Yeah. It seemed like lots of good introduction stuff was provided, building a solid foundation for something to happen. But nothing did.

I watched it, like, and was quite surprised, like, how many times, like, a grown man, like, can say like, like, in any conversation, like.

The gym scene near the start was painful to listen too....his friend could even be worse.

Having said that, good show but I didn't Robl a particularly interesting guy.

My notes:
-Mila is the new Venus
-His laptop is fckn awesome!
-He decorated the apartment wonderful
-Andrew squats like a girl
-His friend has huge guns
-He stares 2times at Katie Lindsays boobs during the trash talk interview
-His routine at school,playing poker,working out etc. is almost the same as mine LOL
-OMFG @ 24.30
-Again, his biceps curls are done poorly eventhough there is a personal trainer right next to him
-If I would ever be extremely Robusto,this would not be the lifestyle I would choose to live
-Very cool !!

Yeah, pretty cool. Always interesting to get an insight into the lives of pro players.

Squat form sucks though
