Dumbbells is a 2014 American independent comedy film directed by Christopher Livingston and starring Brian Drolet, Hoyt Richards, and Taylor Cole in leading roles. The film was written and produced by Brian Drolet, who also stars in the movie as one of the main characters. The story of Dumbbells revolves around Chris Long (Brian Drolet), a washed-up former college basketball star who finds himself out of shape and out of work. In order to make ends meet, Chris takes a job at a run-down gym in Los Angeles owned by a sleazy, wheelchair-bound entrepreneur named Jack Guy (Carl Reiner).

Chris is initially unenthusiastic about his job as a gym trainer and is constantly annoyed by the gym's colorful cast of regulars, including an over-the-top bodybuilder (Hoyt Richards) and a group of oddball senior citizens (Jaleel White, Tom Arnold, Mircea Monroe, and Jay Mohr). However, things change when he meets his new co-worker, a beautiful and ambitious personal trainer named Jamie (Taylor Cole).

As Chris and Jamie work together to whip the gym's members into shape, they become romantically involved and team up to save the gym from financial ruin. However, their progress is threatened when a rival gym owner (Olivia Munn) tries to steal away their clients, leading to a series of comical and over-the-top gym-based set pieces.

Throughout the course of the film, the characters face a number of setbacks and challenges, but ultimately come together to overcome their personal demons and save the gym. Along the way, they learn important life lessons about self-improvement, teamwork, and the value of hard work.

The film is a lighthearted and entertaining comedy that blends elements of satire, romance, and sports movies. The performances from the cast are strong across the board, with Brian Drolet showing off his comedic chops as the film's lead, and Taylor Cole bringing both charm and athleticism to her role as Jamie.

Hoyt Richards, Jaleel White, Tom Arnold, Mircea Monroe, and Jay Mohr all turn in standout performances as the eclectic group of gym regulars, adding extra layers of humor and depth to the film. The movie also features cameos from a number of well-known comedians and actors, including Carl Reiner, Oliver Stone, and Andy Milonakis.

The film's script is witty and full of clever jokes and one-liners, with plenty of references and parodies of classic sports movies and gym culture in general. The direction from Christopher Livingston is solid, with the film's soundtrack and cinematography adding to its high energy and fun-loving vibe.

All in all, Dumbbells is a fun and entertaining comedy that is sure to appeal to fans of sports movies and irreverent humor. With a talented cast and a unique premise, it manages to stand out from other films in its genre and deliver plenty of laughs and heart along the way.

Dumbbells is a 2014 comedy with a runtime of 1 hour and 40 minutes. It has received poor reviews from critics and viewers, who have given it an IMDb score of 3.5 and a MetaScore of 24.
