This movie was nice in the message it portrays, but the characters are bad-looking. Better-looking characters would have made the movie more fun to watch. The focus on the relationship between Lilo and Stitch is very sweet and enjoyable. They have a friend-like relationship, and also, the girl's relationship with her older sister also becomes likable when they patch up after things become serious. The large focus of the movie on sisterly and friendly relationships is rejuvenating and the unique location of the hawaiian island also adds to the story. The white girl in Lilo's dance class is extremely annoying and disgusting to the core. Lilo is right to want to hit her, but she gets in trouble for it. It's over the top when the disgusting child tells Lilo she won't ever be 'as good as her mom'. The movie is emotional and flows naturally.*7/10*

A tropical paradise surrounded by crystal clear blue water and small alien inhabitant best friends with a 5 year old native Hawaiian girl. Lilo & Stitch is a great film for all ages but is especially present in the lives of young, influential minds. This film presents common misconception of the Pacific Islands. Not everyone surfs or wears dresses with tropical flowers or short shorts and a tank top.When we meet Lilo in the beginning of the movie, she is coming out of the ocean and is on her way to hula lessons. We also see her surfing with her older sister and friend and teaching Stitch how to play the guitar. It feels like a vacation advertisement to the Hawaiian Islands where women meet you at the plane wearing Leis and you can drive around the island to the different beautiful beaches with cool blue water and then head to a luau for dinner for some "traditional" Hawaiian entertainment and roasted pig. These tourist images are warping the image of Pacific Island culture into Indo- European views and don't represent the culture outside of what is presented to tourists on their yearly holiday or vacation. The dark skin tone and unique facial features make clear to the audience that Lilo and her older sister and other characters are portraying people from Hawaii. The Pacific Island portrayal is rounded out nicely with a tropical background and a lot of common activities associated when visiting the Hawaiian Islands. The colonial fiction of a tropical paradise where all your worries wash away in the golden sand and indigo waters is built on misconceptions white people have about Hawaii and the tropical islands of the Pacific. Lilo & Stitch is an amazing film that portrays a little girl and her alien best friend on a beautiful, tropical island but also the colonial narrative of what sets America and Indo-European cultures above the rest.

My analysis for the movie Lilo and stitch was a very funny and heart warming movie. It taught me that when you aren't looking for something it will always be there. I think that when stitch was all alone and he was looking for someone he is didn't realize that what he was looking for was a family. In the movie there're was a phrase family never gets left behind. I think that it was an extremely sweet when Stitch came back to save Lilo. When I watched this movie I had a lot of laughs, it may or may not seem like a funny movie, but if you watch the movie then you could really learn that family is everything and that they will always be there for you mono matter what. You may learn a different lesson, but the main point that the director is trying to get across, is that family everything. This movie was very funny and I think that the next Lilo and Stitch movie will be even funnier. To sum up what I've said is that the moral part of the movie is that family is every thing and no one gets left behind.

Sweet, funny movie, ideal for all ages.The story of a rather malevolent mutant alien that is banished from his planet. He then accidentally lands on Earth and befriended by a little girl who thinks he is a dog. Hijinks ensue, especially as his home planet has sent some people to recapture him.From the outset the movie is engaging and funny. Ends up making some good points re belonging, family and how people can change for the good. Meant for kids but has enough humour and emotion for adults to enjoy it too. Good voice casting, with the known names being Tia Carrere, Ving Rames and David Ogden Stiers. Daveigh Chase and and Chris Sanders do well as Lilo and Stitch, respectively.
