Lilo and Stitch are riding a Hawaiian roller-coaster back into theaters this weekend, but unlike that mischievous blue alien, the live-action remake looks poised to clean up. Tracking for the film's four-day opening over the Memorial Day weekend puts its predicted haul at a record $165 million,
Disney's latest live-action remake, Lilo & Stitch captures a lot of what made the original so great, but doesn't quite go far enough.
I sound like a broken record; whenever I review these Disney remakes, I say they’re an unnecessary cash grab. Even if I like the film, as I did with “ The Little Mermaid ,” I still conclude that corporate greed is the sole reason for its existence.
