Movie synopsis

Far, far away, on an alien planet, a rogue scientist named Jumba has created a bright blue creature called Experiment 626, through illegal genetic research. This new creature loves destruction and chaos; he's considered dangerous enough to be exiled to a deep space lockup. But 626 steals a spaceship and escapes, touching down in Hawaii, where he ends up in a dog pound. He's adopted by Lilo, a spunky young girl, who renames her new pet "Stitch."Stitch turns out to be quite a handful--his destructive impulses are on full display as he trashes Lilo's house, among other naughty acts. Lilo is being raised by her older sister Nani (their parents died in an accident), and they are under surveillance by an evil social worker, Cobra Bubbles, who wants to take Lilo away from Nani. Lilo must tame Stitch, or his bad behavior could be held against Nani by Cobra. Meanwhile, Stitch is being pursued by his creator Jumba, who has followed him to Earth to try to recapture him. But Stitch becomes steadily more thoughtful and well-behaved as he grows to love Lilo and becomes a part of her family. The film's animation is done in the traditional 2-D style, complete with beautifully drawn watercolor backgrounds which give it a dreamy, colorful handcrafted appeal.

Editorial reviews

"...Involving and enjoyable....The film is a real gift -- both a treat for family audiences and a treasure for animation buffs..."
Premiere - Glenn Kenny (07/01/2002)

"...This is a happy throwback to the time when cartoons were cinema's most idiosyncratic form....LILO & STITCH makes excellent use of the best of Disney's animators..."
Los Angeles Times - Kenneth Turan (06/21/2002)

"...The colors in this comedy are ultra-vibrant and rich....Best of all, the movie has an endearingly cheeky attitude....Witty, touching and well paced, LILO & STITCH is ideal family fare..."
USA Today - Claudia Puig (06/21/2002)

"...An example of quiet, confident craftsmanship that tells a sweet, charming tale of intergalactic friendship..."
New York Times - A. O. Scott (06/21/2002)

"...LILO & STITCH lives up to the uniqueness of its characters....Perhaps the only movie in recent memory that actually practices what it preaches..."
Box Office - Wade Major (08/01/2002)

"...Delightful....Bright, smart, funny, with lots of pop culture jokes..."
Chicago Sun-Times - Roger Ebert (07/28/2002)

Sight and Sound - Kim Newman (10/01/2002)

"...There's a warmth and lushness to the action that few CG-tweaked 'toons possess..."
Total Film - Dan Jolin (11/01/2002)

My Child w/ Autism LOVES this movie (and so do I)!

Created: 08/03/08
Is Barney making you crazy?

I have an 11-year-old son with autism (low functioning). Until he got hooked on Lilo & Stitch, he'd only watch Barney and Sesame St. videos (he resists switching to DVD so he still uses videos). I've never sat down to watch the entire movie but, believe me, I can quote it nearly verbatim because he plays it constantly. It's so wonderful to hear all the Elvis music coming from his room versus the Barney and Sesame St. tunes I've heard over the last 10 years!

The movie and the music are adorable, and it features a misfit little girl (Lilo) who recently lost her parents and is struggling to accept her older sister as her only parent/guardian, and the older sister who struggles to become a responsible parental figure to her younger sibling.

I know there are a LOT of moms and dads on ebay with at least one child with autism since it affects 1 out of every 150 children in the U.S. I'd highly recommend this movie if your child is stuck on Barney, etc. Lilo & Stitch has helped me maintain my sanity! It's a very cute movie, nothing obnoxious about it even though my child has it playing almost constantly for about two years. (He still loves Barney and Sesame St. but only reverts back to them occasionally now.)

It is wonderful to wake up to a beautiful Elvis song for a change. I have put the Lilo & Stitch music on his MP3 player as well, hoping that he will soon become more interested in "real music" versus the same old baby tunes.

Nothing against Barney and Sesame St. They have provided my son with learning entertainment for many years. But now that my son is nearly 12, it's time for him to move on to something new.
