Very entertaining
TheLittleSongbird9 July 2011
Leroy and Stitch was a film I found very entertaining. I don't think it is as good as the original, which is wonderful and one of Disney's better movies of the 2000s, but I would put it on par with Lilo and Stitch 2:Stitch Has a Glitch, and a notch above the TV series. All of these though are better than Stitch the Movie, while not absolutely terrible, I did find it disappointing and mediocre to say the least.

I did think Leroy and Stitch was a little too short, and a little rushed at times. Also while the story was fast-paced and fun to watch, more could have been done with it, namely Nani and David's relationship and the platonic friendship between Lilo and Myrtle.

This aside, the animation is still lively and colourful, and the soundtrack is bright and breezy. The writing is witty, funny and warm, and the characters still have their infectious personalities, Lilo and Stitch are still cute, Jumba and Pleakley are still funny and Nani's personality thankfully is less distorted than it is in the series. Leroy is a worthy character too, and the voice work is also top notch. All in all, very entertaining. 7/10 Bethany Cox

better than expected
barrys8221 September 2007
It was good, trying to follow the same formula as the previous movies, but I feel they didn't get it completely.

The story is decent and with some funny moments but also I feel that they were just recycling and repeating the previous movies stories. The plot was decent and convincing with a very good rhythm.

I like the music very much and the animation was great as it is always on Disney's movies.

The cast of voices was very decent and good.

In conclusion, this wasn't the best movie of the series by far, but I think its pretty enjoyable and entertaining to spend a good Sunday afternoon with the family.

A solid conclusion to the lilo and stitch tv series and a fun movie overall
lewisdabson7 June 2023
Lilo and stitch was a big part of my childhood in that I loved the first movie so much as a child and even still do as an adult. It was mature, well written, adorable, heartwarming, funny, beatufulllly animated, nice music and acting, fun characters, good morals, good story, It's the full package. The francise I do think is also really lucky in that it's sequals and TV show were not bad at all. I would say they are all good fun and contuine the messages and heart of the oringnal movie well. They don't have as much substance with it themes, but the heart and charm remains in them. I think the reason why they worked compared to other Disney sequals is how they expanded on the world and lore of its ailens/location etc. They do a good job at showing that family's are not always perfect but we love each other regardless. The characters have flaws but oh man are they so lovable and goofy. The animation in this movie is not bad, the music is solid, the action is fun such as the climax, the characters are funny and fun, the story is likable, silly, easy to follow and has a good ending to it all. The themes of ohana play out well here and even tho stitch learnt the same lesson he already knew in the first movie doesn't bother me much due to the happiest he had with having such a great prize. He clearly still loved his ohana as well as jumba and pleakey did but sometimes we forget the things we learn and thats OK. Stitch is my favorite character in Disney in genral and I loved how he is still the same lovable goof ball throughout this francise. He is short tempered and is reckless at times with how he is chilidish but then again we can all be like that from Time to time But at the same time he is very loving and caring to those he cares about. He is loyal, cheerful, kind, silly, adorable and has a good character design. The writing is decent etc. The story itself tho is not groundbreaking, certain scenes feel rushed, mertle could have a better redemption arc, but I loved that gantu and rebean had a good change. Hamaterviel is funny tho not outstanding. Overall I don't get why this movie has low ratings and some hate, there are people who like this movie and I am one of them. A good ending to a good francise.

another great ending
brian2-150-3895563 September 2011
To all the director and development teams out there please follow this style of ending. I have seen this brand evolve from the beginning from the first movie to the TV series to the video games to the amusement park involvement to the ending. This was by all means a good ending of the brand. Me being in hong kong last year there was one thing that i have to say. Lilo and Stitch is a HUGE and when i say HUGE i mean like crazy huge. Last summer the theme was Summer Blast and who would be doing the blasting well who would be better than stitch. Everything was dressed up as that style and was truly spectacular. Now i feel that this movie really did it justice to the brand. Could it have been better yes of course but most films can be better. I feel maybe they could have played off alittle more on the "key" cousins but in order to do that it would need a longer period than 1 hour. So for the time they had been given i feel it did a good job. And the best part was that they summed everything up with a simple word.

Aloha

I love stitch!
KILERQUEEN29 May 2023
I cannot believe I have never seen this movie! I put it on as something simple to watch why I play on my iPhone. I love stitch. This was such a cute movie. I would definitely recommend it for any age. I started looking up more details on the characters on google. Did you know Lilo is autistic? I had no idea! It makes this movie and her character even cuter! I believe it said this movie is 21 years old. My 15 year old were debating on what came first this movie or Pokémon. Because of similarities and it ends up being Pokémon is 27/28 years old. So my daughter won that argument. I would definitely watch this Disney movie again! Stitch is the best!

A Straight-To-Video Sequel as a Series Finale?
TheMysteriousReviewer3 November 2023
Leroy and Stitch gives the Lilo and Stitch series a nice conclusion. I'll admit that it could've took more time to make the finale something amazing and it can be at times melancholy. But it has ended the series well with an exciting villain arc and characters getting new development as the show's finale, along with limited but nice animation. And during the end credits, it is fun to look for names of all 626 experiments not just for the show, but even those that never appeared there as well. By the way, some of these names that didn't make to the show are kinda silly. Have you watched the series, even as a 2000s kid? Then this will satisfy you. The purpose for this is for the grand finale of Lilo and Stitch The Series, and it's definitely for those that have watched the entire series to check out. Not as great as the original, but it succeeds in ending the series on a good note.

Cute...
RosanaBotafogo16 January 2023
In this animation, the villain Dr. Von Hamstervial (Jeff Bennett) breaks out of prison and immediately begins work on a devious new creation: "Leroy", who looks like the gentle alien Stitch and is sent to Earth to destroy everything in his life. Path. To defeat the mad doctor and his wacky experiment, young Lilo (Daveigh Chase) must reunite with Stitch and his other extraterrestrial friends; unfortunately, the only thing that can stop Leroy is a performance by Elvis himself.

Very cute and cuddly like all the drawings in the franchise... I skip the action part (and there are many scenes of escapes and explosions), I really like the jokes, I love that skinny one with 1 eye, and the big one, but the duo, Lilo and Stitch are cuties personified...

Pointless
r96sk20 July 2020
A pointless fourth film from the 'Lilo & Stitch' franchise.

While still not absolutely terrible, 'Leroy & Stitch' isn't one that's worth watching. Not helped by a plot that is all over the place, the new characters also fail to bring any intrigue with them. I do appreciate a follow-up on the ending of 'Stitch! The Movie', at least.

Cast-wise, it's decent to hear Daveigh Chase back as Lilo while Jeff Bennett and Rob Paulsen do fine jobs as Dr. Hämsterviel and Reuben. The rest, e.g. Tia Carrere (Nani), all take a backseat.

I guess they were due a wholly bad film eventually, still pleasing that none of them are truly horrific though.

Leroy & Stitch
studioAT6 July 2022
You can hear the cow being milked if you listen carefully enough.

Again, as with the other straight to DVD films this is fine, decent enough stuff, but it never becomes anything other than passable.

Fine only if you are a die hard fan of the original.

An excellent swan song to the TV series.
rdatsun27 July 2006
Warning: Spoilers
When the L&S movie came out way back in 2002, I didn't really think much of it other then the fact that is was different from the usual Disney fare (Fairy tales, etc) not to mention wholly original. However ironically I wouldn't get on the fan wagon until the TV series to which I then watched the movie. Granted they were two completely different monsters with the series focusing more on adventure but still I dug it for what it was and enjoyed the expansions of all the characters within (save for Cobra Bubbles whose VA couldn't be bothered).

But alas it's the end of the line now as the L&S series takes it final bow with its fourth (Yes FOURTH) and final movie in the series that wraps everything up…and actually does it quite nicely.

Premise: The 626 experiments from the TV series have all been caught, reformed and been given their one true place on Earth. As such Lilo, Snitch, Pleakly and Jumba are regarded as heroes but what more surprising the latter three have now been given a chance to leave Earth and find their own true places as well, but of course this mean they'll have to leave Lilo and Nani behind. If that wasn't bad enough, Hamsterviel (the main thorn in our heroes side since Stitch the Movie) has once again escaped from prison with yet another fiendish plan of his own that involving making a duplicate of our favorite blue koala looking alien only of course evil and then trying to conquer the universe. Can Stitch, Lilo and their ohana stop him?

To say the least the movie wraps things very well with a few shade of the themes from the first film (though not as heavy handed) and actually falls back on continuity of the series for fans of it though you don't have to watch it to truly understand all of it. Plus we get some rather cool battles as well, nothing mind blowing but still enough to whet your appetite. Whats even better we get to see all the experiments (even some that wasn't featured in the series) take a quick spotlight role especially near the end when everything hits the fan. So fans of the series(myself included) shouldn't be disappointed here.

The only downsides I can think of is some issues not getting resolved ranging from minor (Do Nani and David ever really get together?) to major (Lilo and Myrtle's platonic friendship which was barely touched upon in this film. In fact I thought the latter's involvement in the film was kinda tacked on. And why aren't there more scenes of Victoria or the "Yeah" girls, there're just a part of this as Myrtle is?) But other then those issue, there not much to complain about.

Overall is a nice send off to a very great franchise and fans of the series shouldn't be disappointed. I'll admit am gonna miss this series but then again, going off by the ending of the movie, we may not have heard the last of the quirky little Hawaiian girl and her "mutant" dog ;).

No more creative juices? Yes for Disney.
Straph14 October 2007
Warning: Spoilers
I liked all the Lilo and Stitch movies. The TV series weren't that great, but I put my opinions of the series aside when I watched this movie. And I must say... It was bad.

One thing I found disappointing was the animation. Yes, you heard it. The animation. I found its quality greatly degraded since the first movie. Its quality was only as high as the TV series', something which I did not expect at all. If you're looking for eye candy, don't expect anything much here. Also, the animation failed to portray any serious moods. Even in the supposed sad scenes, I didn't feel anything for the character, another downgrade from the first movie.

The next, was the absolutely horrible voice acting. I found it very, very unconvincing, and wondered why, Disney, with all its riches and glory, couldn't afford voice actors with real talent. The voice actors' skill were just as annoying as the one in the series. I tolerated the one in the series because, hey, who wouldn't be tired out when made to voice act for so many episodes? Heck, I don't even know how many episodes there are (Theoretically, there are 624, but I just can't believe that). However, I thought that the voice acting would improve in the movie, and I was put down in the face by the truth, that what they could do in the series was already their best.

Next, was the horrible script. It was cheesy beyond redemption, and the writers just try too hard. They try to put some jokes in, but I just found them annoying. Maybe it wasn't the voice acting, but the cheesy dialogues that ruined the sound section. (On the upside, the soundtrack wasn't too bad, and matched the mood quite well.)

Fourthly was the problem with the storyline. I predicted everything, and the storyline was what made the characters so unoriginal and unlikeable all of a sudden. You have the aliens get new positions and responsibilities inouter space. After the initial hype, they realize that they actually didn't like it and miss their old life.

Meanwhile, the evil villain gets broken out of jail after a very 'action packed' action scene and breaks in to Jumbaa's lab to steal his experiment. The experiment was then cloned into 100 others and the hamster wants to conquer Earth. When the main characters find out, they try to stop the evil hamster but gets confronted in some cheesy final showdown against the experiment and owns him in an extremely lame excuse for trying to make the series to look cool. The characters then give up their new privileges and return to Earth to resume their life. Seriously, how many other movies has used that ending already? The that storyline was extremely short and formulaic, so don't expect too much from it.

So Disney has failed in sound, graphics and storyline. The only charm of the series was the original characters, and how they managed to retain the 'feel' of the characters, but even that wasn't able to save the movie. I tried to like it, I really did, but I give it a rating of 4/10. Another Disney failure.

Will the real Stitch step forward.
michaelRokeefe7 March 2010
Warning: Spoilers
That lovable space alien Stitch finds himself in an adventure as big as the galaxy. A mean spirited Dr. Hamsterviel breaks out of prison and creates a whole army of evil Stitch twins. Jumba is forced to create a trouble-making twin of Stitch named Leroy, who has the undesirable need for destruction. Lilo, Stitch, Pleakley and even Jumba must somehow defeat the evil doctor and his minions to save the universe. Ruling the stars is not an easy undertaking...and Hamsterviel is thwarted.

Not exactly the best of the genre, but a Walt Disney animated adventure is safe for the whole family to enjoy. And you know Lilo...there just has to be a few Elvis Presley tunes included. The story is not too busy and definitely not too long; but just right to fit into a lazy afternoon.

The vocal cast includes: Daveigh Chase, Chris Sanders, Tia Carrere, Kevin McDonald, David Ogden Stiers, Jeff Bennet, Zoe Caldwell and Ving Rhames.

Leory and Stitch Not that Bad
zakima225 June 2006
Warning: Spoilers
This is a great follow up to the series, we get to see all the experiments in a flash cameo. The animation was good, not up to snuff with the original film, however much better than Stitch The Movie! This is set after the series, when all 625 experiments are captured and turned from bad to good. The Grand Council Woman gives Lilo Stitch , Pleaky and Jumba jobs in fields they feel they are best in, which splits apart the ohanna. Jumba back at the Lab, Pleakly a non teaching teacher at GCAC, Stitch now has Gantu's job and Lilo is sole protector of all the experiments. The jobs are what they want but this little family can't stay apart forever as a new experiment, experiment 629 is created by Jumba by force of Dr. Hampsterwheel. The film comes to a show stomping show down when all 626 experiments take on all 100,000 Leroys which were cloned by Hampsterwheel. This is a film that wraps up the Lilo and Stitch Series nicely. This film gets an 8 out of 10 from me, only because it is ending the series. However another movie would be great, as David and Nani are still not married and we all know they belong together.

So amazing and outstanding for a franchise
arielsiere23 September 2022
Lilo has a book of cousins, he meets an alien named Ruben who likes to make sandwiches and other types of foods, then it appears a villain called Dr. Hamsterviel who creates a red clone of Stitch named Leroy, it even has a good soundtrack, from Elvis Presley such as Jailhouse Rock when Dr Hamsterviel and the clones of Leroy are in jail while dancing, at least is way better than Lilo And Stitch 2: Stitch Has A Glitch, an awful direct to video sequel just like Mulan 2 and Tarzan 2, which the three of them are bad Disney direct to video sequels from 2005, the movie called Leroy And Stitch is a great movie from 2006 just like Bambi 2, Brother Bear 2 and Cars, and way better than The Fox And The Hound 2 and The Wild (2006).

My favorite Lilo and Stitch movie.
vessalalizadeh19 April 2022
Warning: Spoilers
For me, this is a top 10 favorite movies of all time. It's also in my opinion the most upbeat of the series.

All of the 626 experiments have been found and become part of Lilo's Ohana, which means family. Dr. Hamsterviel once again escapes from prison by the help of Gantu and goes on a plan to dominate the galaxy and destroy all of the experiments or just the half member of the Ohana by creating 50,000 Leroy clones which are the copy of Stitch but with red color and evil manners. Lilo, Stitch and their Ohana need to team up to fight against Hamsterviel to defend the Galaxy from him and for them.

The movie is a beautiful wrap up to the series. This is Lilo and her Ohana at their best, it's pretty much like Avengers Endgame, not as the tone of the film but because all of the characters are in this movie. Just like Endgame which has all of the heroes inside, this one has all of the members of the Ohana including the experiments of course in one movie. Even after 16 years since the film released, this movie still holds up, it's still pretty good. It's not a flawless film, there are some issues that could have been corrected but this is still an excellent film. The final climax battle at the end of the movie is spectacular. Is in my opinion one of the greatest battles I've ever seen in any film. For me, is right up there with the climax battle in Snyder Cut, the climax battle in endgame, the climax battle in no way home, and in any of my favorite movies. Just a perfect battle. The ending scene of the movie where Lilo and her Ohana are all together forever is by far the best scene of the entire Lilo and Stitch franchise.

Leroy and Stitch despite being a television movie and a direct to sequel, is still in my opinion the best direct to sequel and one of the greatest things that ever happened to Disney. Also, I really want in the future to be released a sequel series to this film where we can see Lilo, Stitch, Angel and their Ohana with all of the experiments having beautiful adventures together with spiritual messages and moral lessons.
