Bolt ***

"Bolt" is a clever story about a dog who thinks he really has the superpowers he possesses in his television acting role. When he lands in the real world he has a lot to learn. For adults, the story is predictable and has its dull spots, but is enlivened with a real sense of fun and some inside Hollywood humor. The 3D version is very good, and adds a lot to the animation.

Rated PG. 103 minutes. Byron Howard - Director, Chris Williams - Director / Writer (screenplay), Dan Fogelman - Writer (screenplay), Clark Spencer - Producer, John Powell - Composer, Tim Mertens - Editor. Produced by Walt Disney Animation Studios. Distributed by Wlat Disney Studios Motion Pictures.

Principal voices: John Travolta, Miley Cyrus, Susie Essman, Mark Walton, Diedrich Bader, Malcolm McDowell, and Nick Swardson.
