MPAA RATING: PG for some mild action and peril
Starring John Travolta, Miley Cyrus, Susie Essman, Mark Walton, Diedrich Bader, Malcolm McDowell, and Nick Swardson
More than just man’s best friend, Bolt is a modern day action hero. Raised on the set of a hit television show, Bolt believes he has amazing powers – like a devastating Superbark! But when he’s accidentally shipped to New York City, Bolt’s daredevil stunts no longer go according to plan. As reality begins to challenge his delusions, Bolt learns his whole life has been a lie. Or has it? Amidst the adversity and hard-knocks, Bolt will discover that a dog’s true superpower lies in his loyalty to the owner he loves. (Walt Disney Pictures)

I'll keep it simple. Good Disney movie for all ages. Well animated film and a nice likable cast of characters.

Saw it in 3D, very cool, the hamster was a crack up!
Hunter Wolf gave it a9:
A very well made movie, fun, touching and well paced. The only down side is that it gets slightly predictable at times but that doesn't ever make it any less fun to watch, Bolt and all the animals he meets are entertaining and interesting as ever ... throughout the whole movie. A must watch for any fan of well made light-hearted animated features.

Why does everyone like these stupid, predictable "Disnep" movies?
Thomas M. gave it a10:
Going into this movie I felt that it may be just another attempt to try and claim some of the reknown that is pixar films. There have been many talking animal movies over the past couple of years and only a slight few have been worth seeing. Bolt totally blew me away by how well done it was, how entertaining and actually quite comical. I have now seen this movie twice and recommend it to any and everyone.
Captain S. gave it a7:
Another great movie from the folks at Disney/Pixar. It had a super new "Cars toon" at the beginning and the whole experience was super family entertainment. I agree with some that it drug in spots, but over all it was an excellent movie for the entire movie. Bolt was good, Mittens was so-so, and Rhino made the flick. A little more Bolt and his sidekick Rhino and this was a winner. This one'll go in the video catalog. Captain Spaulding
Taylor C. gave it a10:
Truly, truly a heart-touching movie. It is truly phenomenal, with a great, original story of the love between a girl and her dog and the friendship of three animals. The script is great, the voice actors are great, and the hamster is one of the funniest characters I've ever seen. There are plenty of laughs all throughout and even some moments that can bring you to tears. This movie is a masterpiece.
