Rating: 60%
Nothing much to say right now except here's Disney review #41: Bolt.

Plot: Bolt is a dog who is raised to believe that he has super powers in order for him to star in a TV series along with his owner, Penny. Then the show is set so that Penny gets captured in one episode leaving Bolt to believe that she's really in danger. This leaves Bolt to escape from his trailer and accidentally knock himself unconscious into a box going to New York. He bumps into a cat named Mittens who he believes is in league with the main villain of the show which brings her to be forced to take him back to Hollywood. So the two make the journey to Hollywood where they befriend a hamster named Rhino who joins them.

If Walt Disney Pictures had their own version of Cars even without the 3-D animation and the fact that both main characters have a lightning bolt as their symbol, this would be it. I mean the main character is trying to get home, he's a superstar, was raised as one kind of person until the journey and his new friends change him, etc. But like Cars, this was an okay movie. I mean like Cars, the journey the main characters take isn't very original, a good amount of what happens was predictable, some of the comedy was pretty cute to be fair, but all around, it's just okay.

Characters:
Bolt: Bolt himself was just okay. I mean again, his journey was predictable. I mean the only good things I can think of was that he at least wasn't arrogant like Lightning McQueen in Cars and that he did look like a really cute fluffy dog.
Mittens: Like Bolt, she was just okay. I mean to be fair, while her back story is not creative, it works a little bit at least.
Rhino: Rhino I liked a little more. He just had the cuter moments out of the three characters.

Music: It was nice. Nothing really stood out.


And that's my review for Bolt. It's just an okay film that's pretty much the same thing as Cars only that it's Disney and not Pixar.
