| Spirituality and PracticeFrederic and Mary Ann BrussatAn edifying glimpse into the life and work of a TV celebrity transformed into a passionate critic of climate change. |

| The Hollywood ReporterMichael RechtshaffenNye's openness extends to a clear-eyed examination of his personal life — one which has often taken a back seat to his career pursuits, impacting his ability to sustain meaningful relationships. |
| The New York TimesAndy WebsterIn the film Bill Nye: Science Guy, Mr. Nye, the 1990s children’s-television personality with the signature bow tie, warns of “an anti-science movement” afoot in this country. And this delightful, revealing documentary, directed by David Alvarado and Jason Sussberg, offers evidence supporting that assessment. |
| IndiewireSteve GreeneWhile Bill Nye: Science Guy may not spend all its time on the man himself, it proves that the guy behind “Science rules!” hasn’t gone anywhere. |
| Washington PostLora GradyAn absorbing and entertaining portrait, of both the science evangelist and the guy behind him. |
