Synopsis

Bill Nye is retiring his kid show act in a bid to become more like his late professor, astronomer Carl Sagan. Sagan dreamed of launching a spacecraft that could revolutionize interplanetary exploration. Bill sets out to accomplish Sagan's mission, but he is pulled away when he is challenged by evolution and climate change contrarians to defend the scientific consensus. Can Bill show the world why science matters in a culture increasingly indifferent to evidence?

tsheldon-64322 A biographical piece on Bill Nye. It will probably be most entertaining to people that grew up on his show from the 90's. Creationism debate is featured prominently.
travmanwilliams This movie was absolutely fantastic, Very well done. I had a smile ear to ear from start to finish. A big thank you from Rachel and I to Bill and the whole team for letting us see a new side of this amazing man. If anything at all, I have a new level of respect for Bill and only hope to see him succeed further. All the best in the coming days!
mr_v68 Well organized feature that presents the human being Bill Nye. As I see it, the film makers more than adequately covered the life, passion. struggles and conflicts of Mr. Nye without being saccharine or condescending to his detractors. Glad I contributed to this effort.
Mary Mangan I didn't know what to expect from the film going in, but I thought it was a learning experience ultimately. I learned about some of the things that drive Bill Nye that I didn't know. Why does he continue to talk to rabid opponents of science? How does he examine the evidence? Revealing personal and professional details that are sometimes unflattering helped to give this film s bit of self-awareness that's not always present in follow-this-famous-figure films. Some things are left unanswered--is Nye's the right strategy for dealing with some raucous topics in science? What will his legacy ultimately be? I think it's worthwhile to see the stories of folks on the front line of science battles as we think about how we want to make decisions on education, health, and environmental issues going forward. It's not easy to stand there, but I'm glad some have the courage to take it on. And seeing them as regular people may be helpful.
