Disney's live-action Lilo and Stitch remake and Tom Cruise's supposedly final Mission: Impossible outing have opened as two of the biggest films of the year in a record-breaking weekend at the box office. Lilo and Stitch, which revisits the 2002 animated family favourite, exceeded expectations with takings of $341m (£252m) around the world.

With 'Lilo & Stitch's journey to live-action, at least one character didn't return from the original 2002 Disney animated film.

So if you want the standard Lilo & Stitch review, we’ve got you covered. But if you’re a premium format fan, a representative of the United Galactic Federation, or someone who wants to learn more about Earth people’s obsession with the movies, consider yourselves Ohana and stick around!

Some children in Chicago with special needs got a private showing of the new Disney movie as miniature therapy horses greeted them at AMC theaters in Schaumburg. It's part of a program by the nonprofit Mane in Heaven called Minis and Movies.
