Lilo & Stitch

Translated from swedish: For long stretches, the live-action version is a carbon copy of the 2002 animated original, but that's fine: it has aged more than well. The updates that have been made do pay off, and the result is once again a delightfully chaotic and genuinely heartwarming story about dysfunctional families that stays on the right side of saccharine and sticky sentimentality.

Translated from swedish: "Lilo & Stitch" is a surprisingly successful balance between charming reinterpretation and respectful nostalgia. The result is touching, entertaining, and a welcome reminder that "ohana" still means family.

Translated from swedish: The 2025 "Lilo & Stitch" stands on its own as a heartwarming, visually stunning, and emotionally rich film that honors its predecessor while creating its own identity. It's a delightful experience for both new and longtime fans.

Translated from swedish: My expectations for Disney's live-action remakes have personally plummeted lately because the concept feels lazy. But now! In this case, the film gets a fresh new feel with a beautiful tropical climate that elevates the setting for the story.

Translated from swedish: "Lilo & Stitch" is undoubtedly the best adaptation of an animated source that Disney has ever offered. It's even so successful that it surpasses its original by miles. This is a heartwarming, well-crafted, and dedicated film that's impossible to resist.

Translated from swedish: Disney's latest remake has much in common with the original, where the setting and chemistry between the sisters are top-notch. Unfortunately, the humor is rather uninspired, which ultimately delivers a family-friendly feel-good movie – but nothing more.

Translated from swedish: It's undeniably heartfelt and brings a warm, fresh glow to the story we already loved back in 2002. While it doesn't surpass the original, it's a successful return to a world worth revisiting.

Translated from swedish: Of course it's not in the same league as the original, which I hold as one of my favorites from Disney's catalog. But I bought into the relationship between Nani and Lilo, and the acting from both felt believable and good in my opinion. Plus Stitch is his old self and is just as wonderful as he's always been. For me, these three characters are the most important ones to get right, and they've succeeded with that here.

Translated from swedish: A hyperactive space creature, technical brilliance, and a few amusing moments aren't enough to save this bland and formulaic Disney product about being an outsider and finding belonging.

Translated from swedish: "Lilo & Stitch" starts off as a cozy family film, but it loses momentum and gets lost when Disney tries to innovate without actually creating anything new.
