INTRO: I have decided to buy this because I have 3 young kids and I try to rent/buy alot of kids movies. This is a great movie. It has nice Elvis Presley music and it teaches how to take care of a pet and shows how to have friendship. THE GOOD It all starts out when Lilo has noone to play with and wants a pet. She goes to a pet store and find Stitch, which she thinks is a weird dog, but he is really a animal from outer space. They become good friends and they try to find a great dance that Lilo can do for her lual THE BAD A social worker named Cobra Bubbles (Ving Rhames) is monitoring Nani's (Lilo's 21 year old sister because there parents dies in a acar crash) progress, as he is concerned that her parenting techniques do not meet the standards required to raise a child and Cobra's organization is considering putting Lilo into foster care. Nani is fearful of this, as Lilo is the only family she has left, and vice versa. Lilo doesn't help, as she doesn't really know what may happen. THE END: Just as they arrive to the shore, it is suddenly revealed that the Grand Councilwoman herself has come to arrest Stitch. Stitch, using his new name and broken English, asks to say good-bye to Lilo and Nani, telling the Grand Councilwoman: "This my family. I found it all on my own. It's little, and broken, but still good." Lilo presents the certificate of adoption from the dog pound which, as a legally binding document, makes her responsible for Stitch. The Grand Councilwoman sees that Stitch has reformed into a civilized creature under Lilo's care, and so Stitch's sentence of life in exile is altered: he's now considered a ward of Lilo and Nani's. Cobra Bubbles is revealed to be a former CIA agent who previously met the Grand Councilwoman at Roswell, and he promises to keep an eye on the family. The movie ends with both Jumba and Pleakley assigned to Earth (they help rebuild the demolished home with some of their alien technology), and with Stitch being fully accepted into Lilo's family.Read full review
A nicely done and very cute little movie. SO loved that Disney started creating more diverse characters of color for their animated films! Just wished that the house of Mouse would create even more funny and entertaining hand drawn animated family films like this one.

I am a huge Lilo & Stitch fan. I love Stitch so much. I understand the lady reviewing with the comment "stupid head," as any parent would agree it is not a nice word and some younger children might not understand it is not nice to say. This movie is great, but I think parents should you should definately watch it with your children if they are young and might pick up negative attributes. I explained to my children, children should not talk to parants like Lilo talks to her sister. I also explained that you should never lock your parents out of the house and a few other negative attributes. Otherwise I think this is a good family movie.
The animation is perfect for telling this unique story. Hawaii is beautifully illustrated. The alien fortress is envisioned with ingenious and thought provoking detail. Character based humor is evident throughout the movie. Stitch is particularly hilarious, and though edgy, never comes across as irredeemably mean spirited. Kids will love his boundary breaking moments but will also relate to the core message of of family loyalty.

I love this film...it's got aliens, beautiful girls, hula dancing, surfing, ELVIS tunes, a cute alien dancing to Elvis, a fiesty younger sister who cares about things in the right way, a HUGE welfare guy named..."Bubbles, yes, I know..." and a great moral, "Ohana means family...and nobody gets left behind..." It's for kids, yeah ok, but it brings ou the kid in me and I am 68 years old!
