Lilo & Stitch (2002)

'Lilo & Stitch (2002)' is a beautifully animated and wonderfully endearing picture that not only shines a light on a culture not often seen in cinema but also makes it - along with its prominent female leads and story of familial acceptance - an integral part of its narrative. This makes the piece an incredibly inclusive experience, in terms of its portrayal and its messages, that makes a point of pointing out the misfit in us all and making the most of the emotional satisfaction that occurs when it finally finds a home. It is easily one of my favourite Disney movies, mainly because of its positive outlook and emotional connectivity. It's also so effortlessly entertaining, funny and charming throughout that a lesser narrative - one that isn't as layered or as effecting as this - might have been forgiven, so long as the fantastic animation and now iconic lead characters were still intact, of course. 7/10

Lilo & Stitch is a great movie with a well developed plot and a terrific voice cast. It is certainly one of Disney Animation's riskier films and I believe it proves people like different. The main protagonist is a dog like alien creature, Stitch is not a flawless character, nor can he even speak English, and yet he is lovable all the way through. I did feel that there could have been a bit more sentimental moments, there are not many running gags or aspects of characters that we are taken back to later on, things like that bring us closer to the characters and help us form a connection with them more. It is relaxing and fun to watch, the Hawaiian theme, the Elvis music, the whimsical characters and the heartwarming relationship that develops between the title characters are just several aspects that make this film worth your while. Funny and sweet, Lilo & Stitch is a great watch for all ages, would recommend to anyone looking for a good family film. A young girl adopts a dog, unbeknownst that it is actually an alien creature who has crash landed on earth.

My analysis for the movie Lilo and stitch was a very funny and heart warming movie. It taught me that when you aren't looking for something it will always be there. I think that when stitch was all alone and he was looking for someone he is didn't realize that what he was looking for was a family. In the movie there're was a phrase family never gets left behind. I think that it was an extremely sweet when Stitch came back to save Lilo. When I watched this movie I had a lot of laughs, it may or may not seem like a funny movie, but if you watch the movie then you could really learn that family is everything and that they will always be there for you mono matter what. You may learn a different lesson, but the main point that the director is trying to get across, is that family everything. This movie was very funny and I think that the next Lilo and Stitch movie will be even funnier. To sum up what I've said is that the moral part of the movie is that family is every thing and no one gets left behind.

Sweet, funny movie, ideal for all ages.The story of a rather malevolent mutant alien that is banished from his planet. He then accidentally lands on Earth and befriended by a little girl who thinks he is a dog. Hijinks ensue, especially as his home planet has sent some people to recapture him.From the outset the movie is engaging and funny. Ends up making some good points re belonging, family and how people can change for the good. Meant for kids but has enough humour and emotion for adults to enjoy it too. Good voice casting, with the known names being Tia Carrere, Ving Rames and David Ogden Stiers. Daveigh Chase and and Chris Sanders do well as Lilo and Stitch, respectively.
