In this charming animated film, we meet Experiment 626, an evil creation by mad scientest, Jumba. He is arrested, and 626 is sent to a deserted asteroid. He soon escapes, and lands on Earth. There, a little girl called Lilo adopted him, and names him Stitch. Jumba, and an "Earth expert" called Pleakley are sent to catch him, while Lilo's sister, Nani is having trouble with the government who want Lilo. Stitch doesn't help much in this situition, though. He is then asked to become a model citizen. Lilo decides to model Stitch after her hero, Elvis Presley.

LILO & STITCH is a Disney Production directed by Chris Sanders and Dean Deblois in 2002.
Hawaii. Lilo is a little girl living with her older sister who tries unsuccessfully to make her forget that their parents aren't at home. Lilo adopts a strange little dog who's in fact an alien monster produced by an illegal genetic mutation. As Stitch the alien is beginning to feel emotions towards Lilo, the whole Federation tries to get "it" back.
An excellent movie for you and your children. Highly recommended.
