As a gamer, I’d say: “This game has a charming, humorous narrative with adorable main characters and a down-to-earth scope. Despite being made on a smaller budget than usual, it stands out as a fantastic remake candidate. It manages to carve its unique identity without being overshadowed by the original.

As a devoted admirer, I can confirm that this creation is cheerful, quirky, and endearing. It masterfully brings its charming title character to life through CGI (and an impressive voice performance by Sanders), perfectly capturing the essence of the original. – The Daily Beast’s take on it.

In this quote, Slant Magazine points out that ‘ohana’, in the context of the film, represents more than just family; it encompasses community. The movie effectively demonstrates the significance of uplifting one another within our communities.

In addition to Chris Sanders returning as the voice actor for Stitch, this movie also features the talents of Maia Kealoha, Sydney Elizebeth Agudong, Billy Magnussen, Hannah Waddingham, Courtney B. Vance, Zach Galifianakis, Amy Hill, and several other notable stars.

The movie, similar to the 2002 comedy-drama, tells the story of Lilo (Kealoha), a six-year-old girl. Following the loss of her parents, she feels more isolated than ever while under the care of her elder sister Nani (Agudong).

When her neighbor, Tūtū (Hill), proposes that she take in a stray dog from the local pound, Lilo instead brings home an extraterrestrial fugitive named Stitch, unwittingly, from the Galactic Federation. As their friendship blossoms, they embark on a humorous and touching journey of found kinship.

After the hit performance of the movie, it’s been officially announced by Disney that they are working on a new installment for the live-action version (according to Deadline). However, specifics about the project are being tightly guarded at this time.

Lilo & Stitch is now available to buy or rent from Prime Video and Apple TV+.

The latest print edition from Digital Spy, featuring Oasis – Live in ’25’, is available! You can grab a copy at your local newsstand or purchase it online for only £8.99.
