BOLT (2008)
SYNOPSIS
For super-dog BOLT (voice of JOHN TRAVOLTA), every
day is filled with adventure, danger and intrigue—at
least until the cameras stop rolling. When the star of a
hit TV show is accidentally shipped from his Hollywood
soundstage to New York City, he begins his biggest
adventure yet—a cross-country journey through the
real world to get back to his owner and co-star, Penny
(voice of MILEY CYRUS). Armed only with the delusions
that all his amazing feats and powers are real, and the
help of two unlikely traveling companions—a jaded,
abandoned housecat named Mittens (voice of SUSIE
ESSMAN) and a TV-obsessed hamster named Rhino
(voice of MARK WALTON) —Bolt discovers he doesn’t
need superpowers to be a hero. Directed by Disney
veterans Chris Williams and Byron Howard, BOLT is a
hilarious, fun-filled, action-packed animated comedy
adventure in Disney Digital 3-D.

Disney's has a winner in the form of a little dog named Bolt. Bolt (voice of John Travolta) has grown up on
a sound stage believing he is a superdog complete with special powers unfortunately he has no idea that
his superpowers aren't real. The producers are careful to keep this secret from Bolt so he really believes
he can melt metal with heat vision and destroy things with his Big Bark. Through a mishap, Bolt ends up
in New York City and must find his way back to Los Angeles to be with his beloved Penny (voice of Miley
Cyrus) . On his trip home, he teams up with a cat named Mittens (voice of Susie Essman) and a hamster
named Rhino. Bolt is a part Homeward Bound and part The Truman Show. Take the whole family, Bolt is
a must see for this holiday season. Be sure to see in 3D!.
