Leave your thoughts about Not Your Typical Bigfoot Movie.
| Combustible CelluloidJeffrey M. AndersonThe film has a lot of "information" about Bigfoot, but though Delaney would clearly like to believe in him, the film wisely focuses on something more emotionally tangible. |
| Slant MagazineEd GonzalezIn the end, it probably doesn't matter if you think Not Your Typical Bigfoot Movie is in fact a documentary, because the film's psychoanalysis is dull and reductive. |
| User ReviewJonelle VThis is an amazing documentary. A moving story about 2 men in a depressed part of America, pursuing their passion for 'researching' the ever elusive bigfoot. |
| User ReviewJim BDallas Gilbert and Wayne Burton, best friends from a dying former steel town in Ohio, are out to convince the world that Bigfoot exists. They have amassed a vast library of video footage and still photographs of proof (their website is highly trafficked) after years of venturing into the forest, day and night, to the capture shots of the legendary creature in its native habitat. Dallas is the gregarious of the dyad is a Reiki master who uses Sasquatch calls into the wild and claims to have a sheep's bone in his skull; some claim Dallas to be one of the world?s leading big foot researchers. Wayne is the repressed, emotional of the gang- a former high-school bully who currently works at a car wash and is living paycheck to paycheck. Seeking fame, fortune, and notoriety, Wayne and Dallas's friendship is tested when a nationally recognized high-profile California BF researcher makes a stop in their town. Director Jay Delaney's honest and often funny look at their lives, proves that Bigfoot certainly is alive and well in Wayne and Dallas' world. |

| User ReviewSean LPretty much just a couple of guys talking about how many times they have seen bigfoot and how hard it is to convince people. They are very funny and the film is actually really really good. |
| User ReviewNathan NWhile Not Your Typical Bigfoot Movie is an awful title for a thoughtful and interesting film, it's an accurate description of the film. This ISN'T a movie about bigfoot but about two odd men. Driven, interesting but odd. This film, while short, tells a moving story about relationships between grown men. |
| User ReviewJohn BSurprisingly affecting doc about two old friends just looking for a reason to keep on livin'. |
| User ReviewAdam PVery amusing. If Bigfoot will be discovered, it will be by these two guys. |
| User ReviewJane PThe Grey Gardens of bigfoot research. Folie à deux-deluxe. |
