Disney’s “Lilo & Stitch” continues to break records ... she makes a wish and then finds herself face-to-face with Stitch, a dog-like alien experiment whose sole purpose is to create destruction.

Walk into any Disney theme park and you won’t go long before seeing the face of Stitch, the rambunctiously charming, big-eared, koala-like blue creature from 2002’s “Lilo & Stitch.” ...

The contemporary setting and grounded realism of the issues our characters face helps situate “Lilo & Stitch” in a different tonal register than its live-action remake predecessors.
