This delivers another heartpounding movie to resonate the title by the famous Disney. The story is great and makes a true honor to the dog in the adventure he goes through to make it fun throughout. And in many ways does the movie make it great to follow what happens as it goes through. But it doesn't have much more depth then that and sometimes gets slow at certain moments.

Six Point Nine?!!!?!! SIX POINT NINE?!!?!What kind of an idiot rated this movie! Overall,this is one the best animated movies ever made! This is the story of a Dillusioned dog and his return to realty,(Yeah, he sells houses),you know what I mean.That's "reality" for anyone who didn't quite get that.On to the basic story line, A movie company has tricked this dog into thinking he's he's a real dog for their show, and he gets the idea into his head that his owner is always in danger. During the show, his "Person" gets taken away from him and he believes she's been captured in real life.He then sets out on a journey to rescue her and ends up being shipped to the other side of the U.S. Anyways, he meets this cat and this hamster who tell him that he's a normal dog. He then sets out on..... Oh,The Heck with it! Go and watch the movie.

Bolt (2008): Dir: Byron Howard, Chris Williams / Voices: John Travolta, Miley Cyrus, Susie Essman, Mark Walton, Malcolm McDowell: Energetic family animation about dependable friendships. Bolt is a movie star dog whose whole life is movies and he believes the plot lines as real. When he ends up in the outside world he faces hilarious facts about his suppose superpowers. Simple, formulaic but satisfactory. This film will appeal to family audiences as well as present humour around reality TV. Directors Byron Howard and Chris Williams are backed with detailed animated characters as well as a great choice theme about reality and fantasy. John Travolta voices Bolt who learns of real life but just when discouragement threatens to set in, he will discover what true courage is all about. Susie Essman voices cat Mittens with sarcasm. Mark Walton voices delusional hamster Rhino. Both characters work on great comic levels despite their formula driven presentation in subplots. Miley Cyrus voices Bolt's owner Penny who misses him and cannot really perform with the replacement. She will also learn what true courage and friendship is all about. Malcolm McDowell voices the villain in the movies and programs that Bolt is famous for and takes ever so seriously. Well animated family comedy as well as a hilarious attack on reality, fantasy and knowing the difference. Score: 7 / 10

John Travolta plays a dog in this movie. Normally this movie would be nothing special, just a cute little kids film to show your children. But because the dog is voiced by John Travolta himself, that makes the film an absolute must watch for any breathing thing.He truly steals the show in this flick, as he does in every movie he's ever starred in. He enthralls the audience with yet another one of his Oscar worthy performances that movie-goers of future generations can look back at with the same amount of amazement as we do today. The very presence of John Travolta's voice is enough to watch this film at least twenty times a year.
