Life-Size (2000) Movie Review

The good version of Chucky.

 So we start off with Casey Stuart (Lindsay Lohan) trying to bring her dead mom back to life. 

Drew McDonald (Anne Marie DeLuise) gives Casey an Eve doll. Some of Eve’s hair winds up on the hairbrush that belonged to Casey’s dead mom. Casey performs a ritual, and…

This is how Chucky movies start.

Anyway, Eve (now played by Tyra Banks) comes to life. Shenanigans ensue; but, Casey is able to start coping with her mom’s death.

In the grand tradition of Disney dads, Casey’s dad/Ben Stuart (Jere Burns) is too busy for Casey. Ben has also started to fall in love with Eve, and…

This is how Chucky movies/1980s rom-coms start. 

Anyway, Eve is able to provide Casey guidance on getting through the grief process; however, Eve is starting to miss being a doll; so, she turns back into a doll. Ben and Drew get together and the film ends with a dance number.

Life-Size is a slightly above-average TV movie. It has a TV movie feel to it and some of the acting is stilted; but, Lohan is good at the emotional scenes.
