REVIEW SUMMARY
Lilo & Stitch is one of Disney’s most adorable, emotionally sincere live-action remakes to date. With charming performances – protect Maia Kealoha at all costs – an incredibly cute Stitch, and a heart as big as the world, Dean Fleischer Camp proves that there’s room for new versions when they’re made with soul and purpose. The human-alien relationship remains the driving force of a simple yet deeply moving story that reminds us of the true meaning of “ohana”. It’s not perfect, but like its protagonists, it’s perfectly imperfect. And that’s enough.
