Bolt – 2008
You can’t go far wrong with animation these days and it has come a long way the last 20 years. Bolt is a lovable dog and the star of a major TV series, when he gets separated from his owner and co star he must travel the length of the county to be reunited with her.
Thinking that he has super powers as possessed in the show he must battle the elements to reach home. Along the way he meets an alley cat and an over excitable hamster who show him what the true value of being a dog is all about. It’s a heartwarming story and not just for the children, a lot of animated films are targeting the adults with in jokes.
While Bolt might not have all the style of Pixar it will certainly be a huge hit! And had some great laugh out loud moments.

Please feel free to comment on this film, I would love to know what you think and I will do my best to respond!
I would recommend the ‘Super Rhino’ short on the extra. It is worth the watch and almost contains as much laugh out loud humor squeezed into a 5 min short than the whole of the Bolt movie.
