This cartoon film in a word is Genius! Disney has finally stepped away from fantasy and cute fuzzy characters and made a cartoon about real people, real situations, and real reactions. The only farfetched aspectare the aliens.
You have Lilo and Nani sisters trying to make it on their own after the loss of their Parents, This I have seen personally in my life and felt the emotional attachment to them. I felt bad when Nani was losing jobs and when Lilo was was being tormented by fellow students and acting out to gain attention, and having to deal with Social Workers whose main existence is to break up families. Even stitch Pleaded that "My family is a bit broken, but still good"
The scenes when Lilo and Stitch are searching for families are more emotional than any other disney feature I have ever seen. I do not understand why Critics like Ebert and Roper gave this film a bad write up, they must not watch Real Life tv shows very often.
Now there is the lovable and evil character of Stich, who was made to be the ultimate weapon but learns what the meaning of family is and is taught to create and not destroy. His voice and his antics make him adored by moviegoers from the beginning, and when he suffers so do the fans. I don't believe I have ever seen a more emotional attachment to a movie character
all in all I give this Film a Ten... above episode 2 above spider man... see this movie this summer!
