"A very surprisingly good movie. I figured it was going to be horrible with the inclusion of one Miley Cyrus but one really doesnt notice its her voice. The plot was pretty original in a sense that Bolt had no idea that what he was doing was all staged. It kept my son on the edge of his seat and it was pleasing to my eye. Everyone wins! "

"We’re less than two weeks away from receiving this year’s Oscar nominations, and though none of the major categories are completely predictable just yet, each has at least three or four certain favorites. Meanwhile, the final slots for Best Picture, Best Director and the acting and screenwriting categories may be simply a random grab from small handfuls of rotating contenders. As of now, it doesn’t appear we’ll be seeing any huge surprises come the morning of January 22nd, when the Academy announces the nominees. The Dark Knight is sure to become the first comic book film up for Best Picture, and it won’t even be a shocker if animated feature Wall-E is listed alongside it in the same category. But the ballots don’t need to be mailed out until Monday, so I’m taking one last chance to reach out to the procrastinators within the Academy membership. If you still don’t know who and what to write in, and you’re unwilling to go the safe route and nominate the expected bunch of films and t ... "

"The Academy’s list of 49 tunes deemed eligible for the Best Original Song Oscar this year seems like a lot for the Music Branch to pick through. That is, until you notice that more than one-fifth of those contenders are from the same film (High School Musical 3, which, thanks to a new rule, is only allowed, at most, two nominations in this category) and you recall that last year’s list included many more songs (59) to choose from. The talent involved this year, however, is tremendous, at least in terms of those performers who sing the tunes on the soundtrack (many of whom had a hand in the songwriting). These artists include Mariah Carey, Etta James, Beyonce Knowles (who played Etta James), Norah Jones, will.i.am, Jack White and Alicia Keys, Danny Elfman, Emmylou Harris, Chaka Khan and Regina Spektor. Add to those big names su "

"Warner Bros.’ surprise decision last week to move Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince from November to next July caused quite a stir. Fans were upset. Entertainment Weekly was embarrassed. The only people not bothered seemed to be the Twilight crowd, who benefited in the release date jumble when their anticipated adaptation moved up its opening to fill the vacancy. But why did the studio suddenly push back its major fall tent pole? Especially after receiving such favorable buzz surrounding its recently unveiled teaser trailer? Warner’s official statement seemed little more than a “just because” stance. So, ever the skeptic and speculator, I’ve compiled this list of more likely excuses: 10. Equus - My first thought after hearing the news was that Harry Potter’s penis was the cause. And I guess I think like Roger Friedman, who is claiming it’s the tr "

"Go get ‘em, Bolt! What a good movie! This animated story about a dog is aimed at both kids and adults. The movie opens with a brilliant strategy. Bolt the super dog goes through a wild series of adventures using his amazing leaping, his laser vision, his physical strength, and, most effectively, a bark-growl that works like an earthquake. But when a set crew walks on and starts moving things, we realize it is all a movie happening on a Hollywood set, except Bolt thinks its real. But when Bolt chases two cats and accidentally winds up in New York, he slowly realizes that his super powers do not work--he is just a dog, whatever that is. By starting the movie the way they did, the Walt Disney crew took us through somewhat the same experience Bolt went through. While we sit back and watch the hilarity in 3D, Bolt, a cynical ally cat, and a rah-rah fat hamster make their way across the country to find Bolt’s “person,” the little girl movie star who loves him.

"The film is about Bolt (John Travolta), a small white German Shepherd who has lived all his life on the set of a TV show in which he portrays a superhero dog. As a result, he thinks that his superpowers, and events on film, are real. When he is accidentally shipped from his Hollywood soundstage to New York City, he embarks on a cross-country journey to reunite with his owner and co-star, Penny (Miley Cyrus). Along the way, Bolt teams up with a jaded housecat named Mittens (Susie Essman) and a TV-obsessed hamster named Rhino (Mark Walton) that also happens to be an extreme Bolt fanboy, and eventually he discovers that he doesn't need superpowers to be a herojust check ti at oncehttp://movies.iexplorehere .com/review/794/Bolt.html "

"The song “I Thought I Lost You,” from the soundtrack to Disney’s animated Bolt, is intended as an innocent duet between a young girl and her pet dog, and lyrically there’s not one hint that it’s anything more, but that doesn’t stop me from thinking there’s something terribly creepy about the above music video. Maybe it’s that villainous goatee that John Travolta is sporting. Or maybe it’s just weird to think of the purpose of the song and then imagine Travolta being the beloved pet of Miley Cyrus. The only thing worse, perhaps, would be if Billy Ray Cyrus were the voice of the film’s title character. And that reminds me of the also relatively creepy duet from Duets, in which a father and daughter (played by Huey Lewis and Gwyneth Paltrow)

"The filmmakers behind two upcoming animated epics, Bolt and UP, present footage. 2:53 - Wow, ANOTHER clip, and a bye-bye from Chris and Byron, they’re heading out because this is a very long clip in which Bolt thinks that styrofoam is his kryptonite. 2:51 - So, the premise is that Bolt, the dog, never leaves the set, and he thinks he’s actually this super-powered dog. However, after five years, Bolt gets shipped off to New York City, and thinks that all cats that he encounters are the evil minions of Dr. Calico. Bolt tries to drag Penny back to Hollywood, to rescue her, and hijinx ensue as Bolt starts to “face the facts about who he actually is.” 2:48 - And we’re back. It actually looks pretty darn cute. The footage isn’t finished completely, we saw plenty of storyboard shots and unfinished CGI, and…we’re now seeing another clip. 2:39 - We’re about to see an episode of Bolt’s television show. For the folks who don’t know “Bolt is the star of this Michael Bay over the top TV show, ... "
