My review is really a 3.5 star rating. Here is why I am rating as such.... Please do not read this will contain spoilers.....
1. Cobra Bubbles/Social Worker
- This one wasn't a huge change and made some sense until the ending. Why did they take out that they didn't know of Alien intelligence? They weren't freaking out when the aliens came down to grab stitch?!?! What?
2. No Captain Gantu
-The villain of this story isn't Gantu it becomes Jumba! What?!? That's a huge change from the original movie. Why make a live action if you aren't going to follow the script!
3. OHANA - "Nobody get left behind or forgotten"
-I can understand the concept of the movie to have Nani not forgetting herself while trying to keep her little sister as she herself is young, but she did leave Lilo behind, with her neighbor to go to college???? IF this was the case, why wouldn't the neighbor have helped in the first place? (did we forget that the neighbor let Lilo go into the pet store and she obtained a dog (aka Stitch??) and let her bring it home without so much as asking Nani!!!! (if anything it was the Neighbor's fault in the first place that Lilo got stitch and ruined Nani's chances)
Overall, the movie was sweet and had my attention up until they didn't add Gantu...I kept waiting to see if even a small mention of him would be added but nope.... I don't know why i keep trying live action, if there are going to be major changes such as these.
