The movie Downsizing, featuring Matt Damon, Kristin Wiig, and Christoph Waltz, tells the story of Paul Safranek (Damon), a regular guy, and his wife, Audrey (Wiig). They decide to try a radical procedure: shrinking themselves to a tiny size to live in a miniature community, hoping to reduce their impact on the environment. It’s a permanent change, but Audrey gets cold feet at the last minute, leaving Paul to navigate this new life alone. After finalizing their divorce with an oversized pen, he discovers that even a smaller life can have big problems. While Downsizing didn’t wow critics or audiences, it still has some appealing qualities.
