The story has a nice set-up: since Stitch is Experiment 626, where are the first 625 invented by Dr. Jumba Jookiba? Odds are the island paradise will soon be spaceport central for many more aliens. As with other made-for-video Disney titles, the animation is not as complex or rich. This hurts this sequel even more since the original film had such a unique, pastel beauty. Unfortunately, the other elements of the film are just as flat. Even though most of the original voice cast returns, the entire production lacks the same spirit and charm, and the story's theme is recycled (get ready for more "Ohana means family"). On the plus side, the film starts with an Elvis Presley song ("Slicin' Sand") and is only 64 minutes long. The movie sets up the Disney TV series The Adventures of Lilo & Stitch. --Doug Thomas

    A pointless prelude to a children's series. Clearly produced simply to make a few extra bucks. And did I mention the 1 hour length?

    It's better than expected, but Disney should have stopped making sequels to the original feature films. It lessens quality.

    The animation is kinda blah...a bit of a shock from the cool look of it's predecessor. But..Sparky is adorable.

    Eh...it was okay. But not nearly as good as the origional or 'Stitch has a Glitch'. The animation is pitiful compared to the last one, and the characters are less appealing. They could've done much better with this one.

    Not as good as the first one, but Ohana does mean family, and family means no one gets left behind or forgotten

Less substantial than the original, but still quality family entertainment that's light-years ahead of most of its competition for the eyes and hearts of pint-sized viewers. Full Review

Bill Chambers, Film Freak Central

The film's brevity is due to sacrifices in character, not plot, and that's a shame, since it wasn't exactly the chaos of Lilo & Stitch's narrative that made it so ultimately charming Full Review

It is missing a great deal of the original movie's heart... This one's more sitcom-y, less endearing, a little bland. Full Review
