Bolt

There seems to be alot of animation movies recently and coming up. Bolt is another one and yes, animal animation. Bolt was a canine adopted by Penny and later on they went on to do a TV show, Bolt, about a superdog saving the world from evil green-eyed man. And to ensure that the dog believed that what it does in the show was real, bolt was shut out from the real world. Living in a trailer and only let out around the studio when filming required.

Penny was sad that she can't live with bolt normally and during one of the episode filming where penny was captured. Bolt really thought it was real and managed to get out of the trailer. Then started his journey across the country to "save" penny, along the way came several cockanathan pigeons, Mittens, a cat bullying the pigeons and .... his #1 fan, Rhino, a hamster actually.

There was a few problem actually, biggest one was Bolt thought he still has all the powers, super strength, super bark, super stare, etc. Along the way, his delusion subsided as he started to realize and also with the help of Mittens. And this hyperactive and abit eccentric rhino spices up matters throughout the journey.

In the end, Bolt did saved Penny in real life. A fire started during an episode shoot and ironically by the replacement "bolt". Bolt returning to see Penny save her with his actual bark which was amplified through the duct. That was heard by the firemen and lead them saving Penny and Bolt. The start was abit like watching an action pack cartoon but on and off laughs did came along later on. 7/10
