"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…
Hmmm! I wasn’t sure if I was watching a sentimental edition of “Hawaii Five-O” here or a collection of outtakes from a “Sonic” movie as this rather disappointingly trundles along for the guts of two hours.

RIP Tigra
