‘Lilo & Stitch’ Review: Another Disney Update Plays It Safe but Works

  • On May 23, 2025, Disney debuted a new live-action adaptation of Lilo & Stitch, primarily set in Hawaii and featuring familiar characters and themes from the original story.
  • The remake continues Disney's project of transforming animated classics into live-action films, following the 2002 original which was widely beloved.
  • The story follows Experiment 626, aka Stitch, who escapes imprisonment and crash-lands on Earth where he befriends a lonely girl, Lilo, and her guardian sister, Nani.
  • The film runs 108 minutes, has a PG rating for action and thematic elements, and highlights the Hawaiian concept of 'ohana' emphasizing family and community care.
  • The remake strengthens the emotional bond between the sisters and retains the original’s ethical core, appealing to families and longtime fans despite some critique of its aesthetic aspects.
