It's not about "who is Tony?" Film asks the question, "How can six days be arranged so that the maximum number of 2,500 attendees, assisted by 100 volunteers and Tony, can transform and have life-changing experiences?"

It's not about "who is Tony?" Film asks the question, "How can six days be arranged so that the maximum number of 2,500 attendees, assisted by 100 volunteers and Tony, can transform and have life-changing experiences?"

In this the film is fair and balanced and informative. The standout attendee story for me was Dawn, from S. America, right in the middle of the film. She stands up s one of the people thinking about suicide. She clearly hits Tony with a story he was not expecting. The result is magical for many people. Later we learn Dawn sold everything, even her furniture to come to the training. We also learn she was given $50,000 gift from another attendee to further her goals and $40,000 of additional gifts, not including the gift Tony Gives her.

The film will tell you zilch about NLP. The level of technique used, the patterns he works are more in the realm of group process, leadership and whole-team support of attendees so as many as possible can arrive at their own Aha!s and breakthrus. Tony does this masterfully and the film documents this masterfully.

An interview with Director Joe Berlinger is on July 25th podcast of The Business at KCRW.com podcasts.

A well-made documentary that focuses on Robbins and his motivational seminars. I like Tony Robbins - he seems like a good man who sincerely wants to help others, and what goes on in his seminars is fascinating to watch. But missing fromA well-made documentary that focuses on Robbins and his motivational seminars. I like Tony Robbins - he seems like a good man who sincerely wants to help others, and what goes on in his seminars is fascinating to watch. But missing from this film is any sort of critical approach to his work. Does this kind of quick-fix, high energy therapy really help people with entrenched psychological and relationship problems? The ending especially was a little too warm and fuzzy imo. Expand
