Dumbbells attracted media attention in France in January 2016, when Netflix released a dubbed version of very low quality. The French version, which had been recorded in South Africa by non-professional actors, was called "the worst dubbing in history".[5] Netflix reacted to the negative reception by removing the film from its French platform[6] and ordering a redub by Titrafilm studio.[7]
