just bought it and watched it last week, pretty good production values. unlike the previous dvd's of cutler this seems to show him more of as a person who bodybuilds, as opposed to a bodybuilder and nothing more.
pretty much covers the weeks leading up to the 2008 Mr.O and right after and includes footage of the pre judging and his loss to dexter in the finals and his thoughts about it including an interview backstage and then later.
working out at gold's in venice, some posing there and at his gym in vegas.
first time interviews with his father and kerri
talks about his dogs
more of his daily activiites besides lifting (i.e. going to the post office dropping off his merchandise for fans)
showing off his backyard pool (sweet!)
and him sitting down (seemingly more animated than usual) about his career, his thoughts for his present and future,etcetera.
now for the downsides to this dvd: 1) it's only 1 dvd and plays for only an hour and a half. kind of pricey cost for 1 dvd and only for this short of time!
the announcer guy: think a poor man's james earl jones! lol! and the writing that went along with some of the lines this announcer guy had to say: i mean for instance showing jay cooking some chicken and the announcer in his very serious james earl jones voice:
"every meal is portioned, the chicken is cut, then diced, then cooked, and blah blah!" for me, unintentionally funny! i mean he's cooking food?! i think what he is doing is pretty much self explanatory on the screen!
later as jay is at the post office dropping off his merchandise: announcer: jay is dropping off his merchandise for his fans all over the world, he knows their name as well as they know his? uh huh!
overall, high production value, not heavy on the actual seeing jay workout, entertaining to see him talk a bit more animated and seeing him NOT just as a bodybuilder, but a person who has plans once he retires, downside, too expensive and too short running time for the cost and the announcer and the writing kind of weak.
