"My Life" is a disease of the week plot: a man is dying of cancer so he decides to make videos for his unborn child teaching him about everything from love to shaving. The plot is borderline ridiculous at times, especially when a flashback about Keaton as a kid expects a circus to show up in his yard because he wished upon a star acts as a plot device for suppressed memories. All of this isn't the problem, the problem is the film has a LOT of lighthearted jokes that diminish the seriousness of the film and reduce it to simple milquetoast. The film has its moments, but in the end it falls short of the mark.
