Tony Robbins: I Am Not Your Guru is a 2016 documentary film directed by Joe Berlinger. It goes behind the scenes of Tony Robbins’ annual seminar "Date With Destiny" in Boca Raton, Florida. The film captures the efforts of producing the seminar as well as the effects on the participants.[1][2][3]

Cast

Reception

The documentary received mixed reviews after its debut on Netflix in 2016. Critics noted that it felt more like a tribute to Robbins rather than an exploration of his life and work.[5][6] After the film’s debut, Business Insider interviewed Berlinger, in which he said that he intentionally wanted to make a positive film, and noted that he received encouragement from fellow documentarian Michael Moore for “going forward with an uplifting project he believed in, even though he predicted critics would harshly judge his decision to do so.”[7]
