Unhappy and lonely after her mother's death, Casey (Lindsay Lohan) attempts to resurrect her mother, but a minor mishap changes the results of her spell and brings an unwanted doll named Eve (Tyra Banks) to life instead. Eve is elated when she first encounters the smells and flavours of real life, but is shocked to realize that she's not the perfect role model she's always considered herself to be. Casey initially despises Eve--she never wanted this doll in the first place and now she's ruined her chances of bringing her mother back to life. But as Eve grows, she brings out the best in Casey, encouraging her to renew old friendships and spurring personal growth and healing. Even Casey's father (Jere Burns) rises above his grief and builds a better relationship with his daughter as a result of his interaction with Eve. This is an entertaining, 89-minute video that juxtaposes the stresses and disappointments of the real world, with their accompanying potential for personal growth, against what initially appears to be a stereotypically idyllic world. What makes the movie powerful is its suggestion that that ideal world is inherently flawed. Performances by Lindsay Lohan (The Parent Trap), supermodel Tyra Banks (Higher Learning), and Jere Burns (US television's Something So Right) are very good. The story, while based on a fairly unreal premise, successfully explores some very real issues facing kids today. --Tami Horiuchi

Format:DVD
I saw this film years and years ago on the Disney Channel, and loved it. I have since bought it on DVD and even though I am 18 now, I still think its great. At some parts who will be laughing, at Eve's mishaps, and then other moments your eyes will fill up. A great film for all ages, although perhaps more of a female than male audience. Its one you can watch over and over again.

The story caused a tear in my eye as the girl tried to get her mum back. Sadly, the plans failed but a positive outcome has an affect also. The story id good and not what I expected at first, but after watching the film I realise how the title matches the happenings of the film. I would maybe reccomend it, to someone who likes a mix of tears and chuckle in a film.

My ten year old loves this film. Especially because it has Tyra Banks in it and she loves watching 'Americas next top model'

Basic
The DVD is a 4:3 format TV version, and looks a little dated now. However, fun film and features the ever-popular Lindsey Lohan.
