The evaluation embargo for Lilo & Stitch In the past today and as we first reported on toonado.com, The bright first social media reactions Do not match exactly what critics say.

The consensus seems to be that the live action remake plays it too safe and essentially serves as a shot-for-shot remake of the beloved animated classic from 2002 on which it is based.

Radio times calls it “Expert-generated, cross-generational that combines the appearance of a wasteful disney production with the unclears of the Oddball charm.”

Screens, swarms, “This time the missions are somewhat higher in the film, and the problems are just as rooted in reality. However, this does not prevent them from being swept away by the joys of the new Lilo & Stichs.”

Indiewire repeats a common criticism of these live action adjustments by determining, “The heart of this story remains firmly intact, but it has something to see them in live action that takes away its inherent magic.”
