Bolt

Pros: Interesting Characters, Decent Plot, Great Concept, Sharp Dialogue.
Cons: None.

I went to the early showing of Bolt yesterday, managing to avoid the long lines.  The crowd was surprisingly mixed, with predominately younger children, but a few teenagers mixed in.  My ten year old son seemed to have plenty of company ...

Pros: Good vocal talents and engaging story
Cons: Story has heavy and mean-spirited moments

People tend to have a special bond with the pets they know. It's just not expected between a Hollywood child actor and her canine co-star. That bond, though, does develop in the animated feature "Bolt," about a dog action star and the girl he rescues ...

Pros: Great animation, voice acting and story.  Wide variety of humor
Cons: Predictable all throughout

Bolt has managed to prove that there is life outside Pixar, symbolizing the resurrection of Disney Animation Studios, who will be releasing the 2d-feature, Princess and the Frog in 2009.  It shows that Pixar doesn’t dominate the entire ...

Pros: Great visuals and voice-acting, lots of humour, a hamster called Rhino...
Cons: ... starts off a little too slowly, rather predictable.

Bolt is a highly enjoyable animated movie by Disney, written by Dan Fogelman and Chris Williams, about a dog who thinks he's a superdog.  There is a reason for this of course - from a very young age he has starred in a TV show, only no-one ...

Pros: Nice stylized animation, fun superheroing, nice movie for the kids...
Cons: Some pacing problems, animals-in-peril might be scary for the pups.

After two weeks of Christmas vacation, I've been sledding with my boys five times, shoveled my sidewalks and driveway at least six times, and I'm really ready to be back in my classroom next Monday.  But before I go back and face those kids, we ...

Pros: animation, voice overs, action, bold colors
Cons: the ending was not Disney worthy and I was dissapointed in it.

My daughter has had the pleasure of seeing this movie twice now. However the first time she was quite disappointed since she only got to see part of it due to the screen being blocked by adults. So when it came to our area I told her that since I had not ...

Pros: Entertaining, Funny, Action, Enjoyed by both kids and grown-up kids
Cons: None!

Movies are highly reinforcing for my seven year old son (who has Autism), so of course - when a new kid-flick comes out, especially by Disney... we take him.  Ok, Ok, so the kid wanted to see it - but so did my husband and I.    Off ...

Pros: Flawless plot, pacing, acting, animation, its just brilliant.
Cons: The Agent is so annoying it actually detracts.

Bolt! (2008) Directed by Byron Howard and Chris Williams.Bolt: There's a guard. Rhino: (A hamster in a ball) I'll snap his neck.Bolt is an American White Shepherd, beloved partner of Penny.  Penny's father is ...

Pros: Cute story, nice animation and one heck of a Hamster.  (Great in 3-D)
Cons: Plot unspools in a very predicatable way.

BOLT won’t win any prizes for originality or for breaking new ground in CGI animation.  But I sure won’t hold that against it, because for its 90 minute running time, I was thoroughly entertained.  (I also saw the film in ...

Pros: Cute dog.  Funny characters.
Cons: Dragged on a bit in the middle.

I was surprised that Disney would release a movie so close in time with the major blockbuster Twilight but they did…. And Bolt is the little engine who could!THE MOVIEBolt is an animated movie that is playing in both regular ...

Pros: Nice visuals, Some cool action, Great voice acting
Cons: Meanders, Filled to the brim with cliche's, A little too predictable

"Bolt" will naturally be competing for the #1 spot next weekend with teenybopper favorite, "Twilight" and rightfully so. It's had a solid marketing campaign, and it has the same wide appeal as other films like Madagascar 2, just without the sequel pull. ...

Pros: Engaging characters, some really funny lines (especially from the cats).
Cons: None really...animation not up to Pixar standards but not bad at all.

Let me start off with two qualifiers:First, I am a Disney fanatic. Second, I am NOT a fan of non-Pixar Disney CGI flicks. "Chicken Little" was just plain awful and "Meet the Robinsons" was missing the spark that differentiates the best Disney fare. ...

Pros: Rhino, CGI
Cons: At time characters and plot unoriginal

I had the opportunity to see Bolt this past weekend.  It wasn't my first choice of movies, but my friend won the coin toss.BoltA super-hero dog finds out that off the set of his Hollywood action show he isn't so ...

Pros: Quality animation, good storyline, funny characters
Cons: None

I went to see Bolt over Thanksgiving weekend with little expectations and was pleased to come out pleasantly surprised.  I am a big fan of Pixar, but in my opinion, Disney Animation Studios hasn't been at their level for a ...

Pros: A little something for everyone.
Cons: Miley Cyrus!! But I don't like her and maybe you do.

Bolt, 2008, is a nice well rounded family film that I got to go see by simply walking to the downtown theater in Ephraim, but if your lucky enough to live in a big city, you might catch it at your local dollar theater and just know I am ...
