For me, the real story of the film is the wonderful Barnett family. Daniel’s mum Gemma says that they’ve always embraced Daniel’s passions, and their devotion is a joy to watch. Go to Full Review Kent Hill Film Threat Nov 7

Again, whether you believe in the existence of Bigfoot doesn’t matter. What truly matters about My Bigfoot Life is that it is a showcase and a fountain of inspiration for others with autism, and even those without. Go to Full Review Jennie Kermode Eye for Film Sep 19
3.5/5
Like many of the best documentaries, this is primarily about human relationships, and it doesn’t take long to see the value of the community that has grown up amongst bigfoot enthusiasts. Go to Full Review Robert W. Monk Flickering Myth Sep 18

Marc D Oct 20 While it's wonderful that a curious kid has so much passion for a subject, I think it's a little odd how people put any faith in these "Bigfoot researchers" who have never discovered an actual specimen of this creature which allegedly roams the woods. I mean, how can you be an expert on something which has never been documented in the wild? It is nice that Daniel got to travel to the "Bigfoot hotspots" of the PNW, although it wasn't surprising that they failed to locate "Bigfoot". I could only recommend this film to people who are hardcore "Bigfoot believers" who absolutely must watch every piece of media related to this Cryptid. See more Read all reviews
