Bolt review

Pixar. Ahhh Pixar. What can I say? They have once again succeeded in making a beautiful movie. Now, the opening scenes are of Bolt performing a number of heroic acts, and does things that only a 'superdog' could do. A little after this event, it's revealed that all of these acts are staged, and are being shot for a popular show about the dog. The dog has been made to believe he is actually a superhero, and his owner is basically his sidekick. So throughout the movie he encounters different characters who have seen him on TV and begin to convince him he actually isn't a superhero. He realises this, and gets upset, and then his sidekick gets into trouble and he saves her. Endletsallhugandkissandgiveflowerstoeachother.

I realise this is an animated movie(Seriously, duh), but I felt it needed a review. I think John Travolta was a perfect choice for Bolt, maybe there could have been another fitting actor, but who am I to know. The story had shades of Monsters Inc., I guess because of the whole 'saving best friend' thing. Not the greatest of comparisons, but meh.

The score of Bolt..All I can say is wow. Seriously, I don't think I've heard a better soundtrack for another Pixar movie than this, apart from maybe Toy Story, but then this one is awesome. Seriously, It just fits the action scenes perfectly, and the inclusion of Miley Cyrus and John Travolta performing a track didn't hurt. I'm not a fan of Cyrus, nor do i hate her, I just don't think Hannah Montana is all that great. Anyway, not the time. But if you haven't heard it, I suggest you give it a listen, if your a fan of movie soundtracks/scores. Also, "Barking at the moon" by Jenny Lewis is pretty sweet too.

This is a good movie, perfect for children, Pixar have never disappointed me, unlike some people who just try to be something they're not *cough*DREAMWORKS*cough*. but yeah, good movie, if you've ever been a fan of the other Pixar movies, you won't be disappointed.
