This review is from: Lilo & Stitch 2: Stitch Has a Glitch (DVD)
I got to see Lilo & Stitch 2: Stich Has a Glitch, on Sunday, July 17, during the last day of San Diego Comic Con International. The presentation was part of Comic Con's "Kids' Day" program, an acknowledgment that some of the biggest comics fans are indeed actually little bitty kids. The audience for the film (which was projected onto a screen from a DVD) consisted of my husband and myself, plus a room full of families with little kids. The room was filled to capacity, and people had started lining up at least half an hour before showtime.
I'm pleased to report that, for me at least, Glitch is a welcome return to the spirit of the original movie. The animation, even projected on a large screen, is fabulous. I was especially impressed by the use of shadows. But, it is also very fluid, and the character designs, though noticably different from the original film (somehow, everybody comes out looking "rounder"), are true to Chris Saunders' unique drawing style. This film also captures the emotional pitch of the original movie, while in some ways, deepening the characters. One main plot thread involves Lilo attempting to win the annual hula competition. For the first time, the movie explicitly mentions her mother. Lilo is initially depressed, because she doesn't have a mom to help her make her costume for the contest. Moses perks up her interest by showing Lilo an old scrapbook, with pictures of her mom, winning the hula contest! A very cute touch: mom is a ringer for little Lilo. Lilo is also searching for inspiration for her hula dance, which must, of course, convey the spirit of aloha. The King himself provides a welcome hint. Stitch's story is a little darker in tone. It begins with a bad dream about coming back to wreck havoc on the Island, including threatening his friend Lilo. Something is making Stitch lapse back into his old, naughty ways. Jumba, in making his diagnosis, reveals at last the story of hiscreation of Stitch, and how something that went wrong may spell doom for our little alien friend. This sets up the main conflict with Lilo: is a victory in the hula competition, her attempt to get closer to the memory of her mother, more important than her continued friendship with Stitch, who suddenly seems intent on wrecking everything? I won't tell you how it comes out, but remember to bring plenty of Kleenex--near the end, many young'uns in the audience were openly bawling, as was a certain adult. Oh, and try not to sip your coke while Lilo is thinking up ideas for her hula dance, as you'll probably snork it up your nose!!

Back To The Magic,
By Mike Sehorn "Rezo the Dezo" (APO, AE United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Lilo & Stitch 2: Stitch Has a Glitch (DVD)
"Lilo & Stitch 2: Stitch Has A Glitch" picks up the title as a worthy sequel to the original Disney masterpiece, in the stead of the somewhat-dissapointing "Stitch! The Movie". Though this film never made it to theatres for reasons unknown, it goes all the length to reinvigorate the specialness of the original film, supplying us with the original animation and voice cast (with the exception of Dakota Fanning replacing Daveigh Chase as the voice of Lilo...but more on that, in a moment).
L&S2 supplies us with a story that's more of a drama between the characters, rather than the comedic space opera that the original one was. Nonetheless, despite the lack of space battles and Captain Gantu, the film more than qualifies by supplying the viewer a story of Stitch and Lilo's conflict with the blue alien's mysterious malfunctions, filled with many traditional-L&S wittisisms (without falling back on pop culture references), music by Elvis Presley, and touching/amusing/priceless Stitch/Lilo interaction. Staying true to its originality and presentation is a feat undaunted by switching voice actresses for Lilo; fans need not worry, for Dakota Fanning fills her shoes with all the heart and emotion needed to make her come alive as she did in the original film. Within five minutes of watching the film, viewers will most likely forget to notice the transition, or at least cease to be troubled by it. Doubtlessly the only true and worthy successor to the original "Lilo & Stitch", "Stitch Has A Glitch" goes all the way to touch upon the audience the meanings of friendship and Ohana, all whilst ingesting the brash-yet-delicate humor that served to make the original film just so good. "Lilo & Stitch 2", plainly said, is a more-than-worthy sequel. All fans of the original film or franchise should be sure to see it.

Saw it and it's... GREAT!,
By Disney Dad (Joliet, IL) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Lilo & Stitch 2: Stitch Has a Glitch (DVD)
Okay, so we're back from California and the Comicon. Saw a lot of cool stuff, but one of my favorites was "Lilo and Stitch 2". It was mobbed. I almost didn't get in. But it was worth it! The movie is awesome. It's as good, if not better than the first. The characters are fun. The animation is awesome. And Dakota Fanning was great as Lilo. I don't want to spoil the story for you, but it's called "Stitch has a Glitch"... so Stitch is up to no good. Funny. Touching. A+
OLD POST: Hey. I'm so excited! I'm going to see the new "Lilo and Stitch 2" movie at the Comicon in San Diego, California THIS SATURDAY!!! I loved the first one and I can't wait to see this one. I hope it's good... more like the first movies and less like the tv show. The reviews look promising. I'll let you all know what I think when I actually see it.
