Lilo and Stitch Review

 

Lilo and Stitch Review.

To celebrate its 20th anniversary and I thought I might do a review for this film to celebrate 20 years of this film. It was the last good Disney animated film until Princess and the Frog. 

The film focuses on Stitch, whose alien and the experiment code name is 626. He's only meant to destroy anything he sees, and he's super intelligent too. 

The film focuses on Lilo wh,o is a young girl who lost her parents in a car accident and has no friends. She only has her older sister Nani a former surfer champion who gave up her career to raise her younger sister. Now the two don't get along, but this film is about family, finding your home, and sisterhood something, the director of this film called out Frozen for saying they did it first.

It's true if you think about it. Lilo and Stitch did it first, and the film director had every right to call them out for that. 

Now getting back to the review in the film, Stitch escapes from being executed and hunted down by his creator Jumba and an alien named Pleaky. The film has great animation, especially how the ocean is made in animation. It looks so natural. The characters in the movie are great and very relatable too because it's about family, struggling to support everyone you love. Also, in the film, Lilo might get taken away because the social worker Cobra Bubbles doesn't think Nani is fit to raise Lilo without a full-time job she struggles with getting or keeping. He's not a bad guy. He knows Nani is trying, but he believes this is what's best for Lilo if she lived in a foster home. 

Also, there is Nani's friend David, a surfer, who wants to help her and date them because he's in love with Nani. 

The film also has some excellent action scenes, funny moments, good fight scenes, and moments in the movie that will make you cry, like when Stitch goes outside with the Ugly Duckling and says

This scene made many people cry; even my mom cried watching this scene.

The film's villain in the movie is Captain Gantu, who basically if you think about it, the guy was just doing his job, but it gets out of hand, and he loses his job. That's why he's one of the main villains in the spin-offs and sequels. 

Ohana. 

Nobody gets left behind.

Love that quote. 

At the film's end, Stitch finds his home and his family with Lilo and Nani because he learns he doesn't have to destroy anything like his program. Also, Jumba decides to join the family with Pleaky and agrees to work with Stitch. The film ends on a good note and shows everyone being a family. That's what Lilo and Stitch are about: family and the struggles of having or wanting a family. 

The cast in this film did a great job voicing their characters, like Chris Sanders as Stitch (Who also directed this film.) Daveigh Chase as Lilo (It's hard to believe she's 32 now, and she played the Ring.) Tia Carrere as Nani (Who I met once at a comic con, she's very nice.) Ving Rhames as Cobra Bubbles, Kevin McDonald as Pleaky, the late David Ogden Stiers as Jumba, Jason Scott Lee as David, and Kevin Michael Richardson as Captain Gantu.   

I give Lilo and Stitch an 8 out of 10. It's a great film to watch, and it was one of the last great animated films from Disney in the 2000s because they didn't really come out with anything significant till 2009. It's a classic, and you can watch the sequel films and the tv show. Also, this film is getting a live-action remake, so they might ruin it, but hey, I hear Chris Sanders is coming back to voice Stitch, so that's good just hope it works. That's my review. Let me know what you think. Let?
