We saw this movie over Thanksgiving weekend and enjoyed it.  Unfortunately it didn’t quite captivate Scott and I as much as it did the kids.  I thought it was a cute story but just wasn’t sucked in like I am with so many Pixar movies.  Was it entertaining?  Yes.  Was it mind blowing?  No.

The movie is about a dog named Bolt who has grown up believing he is a super hero.  He has powers such as laser vision and a super bark which are all special effects but he doesn’t know that.  He thinks his human has been abducted and ends up across the country looking for her.  He makes some friends along the way that help him discover the truth about him self and learn to accept who he is.

This does have a PG rating and I guess it could be considered a little more intense than The Incredibles because a lot of “bad guys” get blown away in the beginning of the movie.  We took all three boys to it and none of them had problems (ages 3-7).

I would recommend this movie but more as a good family activity and less as and “OMG this was a great kid movie!”  Have you seen it?  I’ve talked to some of you and I know you loved it.  Tell me why?
