How to Live Forever Ratings & Reviews
Arizona Republic
Bill Goodykoontz
Wexler, whose father is the brilliant cinematographer Haskell Wexler - still filming movies at 89 - wisely focuses on the personalities as well as the anomalies.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
If someone could give you a pill that allowed you to live for 500 years, would you take it?
New York Times
Rachel Saltz
It may sag a bit in places, but Mr. Wexler's film about aging and what it means to grow old is remarkably spry and lighthearted.
Boston Globe
Ty Burr
A cheerfully rambling documentary that's much more thought-provoking than the sum of its parts.
AV Club
Sam Adams
Wexler breaks the cardinal rule of first-person documentaries: Don't make yourself the subject unless you're worth paying attention to.
Washington Post
Adam Bernstein
A moderately ingratiating, none too probing and largely predictable essay on the way people fear and embrace their senior years.
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
Wexler gets tired of his own movie near the end of it. The viewer will get tired in 15 minutes.
Los Angeles Times
Robert Abele
A wry, hopeful yet enigma-appreciating documentary about the perils and possibilities that come with growing old.
Slant Magazine
Kalvin Henely
The doc's presentation of its information-overload is scattershot and prosaic.
Spirituality & Practice
Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat
An entertaining and thought-provoking documentary that offers a global examination of longevity, centenarians, and the growing market for anti-aging products.
St. Paul Pioneer Press
Chris Hewitt
I don't know "How to Live Forever," but I can say you're better off not wasting the time you have watching the documentary with that title.

Cole Smithey
We all know life is a crapshoot, but we want to hedge our bets. You could get a few good tips from watching this joyous celebration of the precious seconds we spend on the planet.

Jennifer Merin
Serving as a portal to personal reflection about aging and death, How To Life Forever is a highly relevant documentary with wide appeal. Read my full review.
Boston Phoenix
Chris Faraone
An expert documentary, a responsible yet lighthearted film about the absurd things that folks do in the face of death.
Village Voice
Nick Schager
The film's primary message is of a painfully obvious sort.
The Hollywood Reporter
Kirk Honeycutt
A frisky, inquisitive film about aging and a lively film about death all in one.
Variety
Todd McCarthy
The prospects, advisability and potential methods of prolonging human life are examined in an engagingly multifaceted manner in How to Live Forever.
Film Journal International
Eric Monder
This documentary on longevity is more jaunty than illuminating.
Hollywood & Fine
Marshall Fine
Amusing and eye-opening...makes you think, even as it has you chuckling.
AARP Movies for Grownups
Bill Newcott
A wonderfully funny, thoughtful exploration of what it means to get older, the extremes to which people go to hold off the effects of aging … and the vexing question: How old is old enough?
