Overall this is a terrifically watchable, heartfelt documentary and a valuable glimpse into a singular life.

Life, Animated may be the best commercial Disney could ask for, but that’s only a side effect. The purity of Owen’s relationship to the material transforms it into something more powerful than the company itself could ever accomplish.

It never addresses Disney's wholly manufactured stranglehold on turning adolescent desire into a consumerist impulse.
