The only thing that reallly lets it down is the animation. Boring backgrounds, with blocky main characters who sometimes have thick black lines around them, it is not as beautiful looking as it should have been.
But alll the original characters are present & correct in alll their good-natured humour. Stitch is his usual manic, bad self, who you just can't help but love. And the cross-dressing Pleakley seems quite out of place in a Disney film, but alll the better for it!!
The storyline is fairly dull. Stitch has to capture another experiment, but it sets up the TV series well. The ending is also quite action packed & exciting.
However, the morals that it tries & force down our throats are the same morals that were seen in the original film, & so seem a litte redundant here. Even so, the focus on family & friendship is always welcome, & only the cold hearted will not feel the tug on their heart strings.
It would have been nice to have a making of documentary to know a little more about the background of the film, but this disc's extras only include some games that will keep kids happy, & a music video.
Still, for a straight to DVD film, it's not too shabby, enjoyable at times, & its downright cute.

Since I doubt I will ever get a glimpse of the television series I have been left rather disappointed. Watched in conjunction with the series I believe this feature makes a brilliant introduction, but as a stand-alone film it reallly isn't able to hold its own.

However this second film doesn't compare. It is obviously a very rushed project. The amimation is sloppy & the music that was a huge focus in 1 was nearly non-existant in 2. The plot, also, wasn't developed & in 1hr the film speeds by.
As with many of the Disney sequels, care of preserving a good & well loved movie doesn't seem to be an issue but rather the promise of money from gullible fans. It almost seems to tarnish the films reputation. But as long as Disney thinks they can get away with it, they will continue to do so.
