You know you’re big when the director and producers of a three-part Netflix documentary on your life think your first name is recognizable enough to be the title. “Arnold’’ is the story of Arnold Schwarzenegger, and “big’’ is the theme.
Part 1 is “Athlete,’’ in which we see how a boy in Austria grew into a ridiculously muscled bodybuilder. Part 2, “Actor,’’ deals with Schwarzenegger’s box-office domination as an action hero. Part 3, “American,’’ tells the story of his rise to governor of California.
Everything is big about Arnold, and you don’t have to be very perceptive to grasp an unspoken message of the documentary: You, too, could be big at something if you work hard enough at it.
