Guide Review - "Lilo & Stitch" DVD Review

Lilo loves Elvis and is a pain in the rear to her big sister, Nani, who's been left in charge of raising her after their parents passed away. Lilo's picked on by her schoolmates and Nani, being a loving big sister, decides to let her adopt a dog.

Things at home go from bad to worse when the 'dog' Lilo adopts turns out to be more of a troublemaker than even Lilo herself. Lilo soon discovers that Stitch is not actually a dog, in fact, he's not actually from Earth. He's a renegade mutant experiment-gone-wrong who, in the classic tradition of Disney movies, finds the true meaning of family and love as he and Lilo get hunted down by alien bad guys.
