| Movie HabitMarty MapesSellout? Tool? Dupe? Better to just get to know the real Burt than to judge. |
| Globe and MailKate TaylorIn its tight focus on the man, and its leisurely pace, the film creates an intriguing portrait of a figure caught between the Sixties and the present, and the self and the image. |
| Spirituality and PracticeFrederic and Mary Ann BrussatA documentary about a Maine recluse who at 76 years of age makes public appearances as the icon of the Burt's Bees brand. |
| Moveable FestStephen SaitoShapiro's film finds a way to flourish without ever feeling ordinary, taking a page from its subject who despite extolling the virtues of a simple life leads one that's satisfyingly complex and quite deserving of the big screen treatment. |
| Movie MetropolisChristopher LongBurt's not your typical entrepreneur. He's not your typical anything. |
| Village VoiceAbby GarnettShapiro seems far more invested than his subject in telling the story, which sometimes makes the film feel a bit underhanded. |
| Los Angeles TimesSheri LindenIn engaging but not always satisfying fashion, Jody Shapiro's film reveals the man behind the logo to be a taciturn, plain-living refugee from city life and an unlikely globe-trotting corporate spokesman. |

| Film-Forward.comNora Lee MandelLaconically recognizes his deal to be a symbol as latest reinvention of himself. Equally charming and annoying, his quirkiness and stubbornness play to the company's benefit. |
| Shockya.comBrent SimonIf there was a film school class about burying the lede, it would be difficult to think of a more fitting example than this aimless doc, which gets to its most essential questions only an hour into its running time or leaves them entirely unasked. |
