Ever hear a movie title that instantly unlocks a forgotten childhood memory? It’s like a hidden part of your brain wakes up, reminding you of those slightly strange, but beloved, films you watched as a kid. Movies like Troop Beverly Hills, Ritchie Rich, or A Little Princess have that effect – they feel like a hazy, wonderful dream you’re not sure actually happened.
The 2000 film Life-Size, which also happens to be the first live-action Barbie movie, tells the story of Casey Burns, a young woman struggling with the loss of her mother. Hoping to bring her mom back, Casey tries a magical spell, but instead accidentally brings her doll, Eve (played by Tyra Banks), to life. This leads to a lot of humorous chaos. The movie is known for being over-the-top, silly, and delightfully ridiculous. For a while, it was hard to find on streaming platforms, but it’s now a popular hit on Disney+, ranking just behind The Fantastic Four in viewership.
The Power of Nostalgia Wins Again
Fans have been eagerly waiting for Life-Size to become available on Disney+, and it’s finally back! There was a lot of guessing about why it wasn’t streaming before – some thought it was due to music licensing issues, while others believed Disney didn’t have the film rights. Now that it’s available, viewers are thrilled. One fan shared, “I loved watching this as a kid! The sequel didn’t capture the magic of the first movie and felt strange.” Another viewer said, “I remember that movie, it was awesome and Lindsay Lohan was my first crush!”
People are reacting to this movie in wonderfully weird ways, just like the film itself! One viewer gave it 5 stars and compared it to the feeling of watching Tyra Banks randomly type on a work computer – and that pretty much sums it up. If you’re looking for a nostalgic, lighthearted trip back to your childhood and just want to have some silly fun, Life-Size is a great way to spend an afternoon.
