The Bolt

The jokes aren't a match for Pixar's best, and there's too much sentimentality (as if Lasseter were determined to keep Disney's cartoons just that little bit less cool than Pixar's), but this is still an above-average children's film.

The plot is sentimental fluff. But this has energy and invention enough to keep Lasseter top of the heap.

Tremendously lovable and funny stuff.

Clearly, Disney animators have taken a few notes from their Pixar pals.
