Entertainment Weekly
Bolt breaks no great new stylistic ground -- and yet it's a sturdy beaut. - 83
The A.V. Club
For the first time in years, it feels like Disney has done its namesake proud. - 80
New York Magazine (Vulture)
As Bolt, John Travolta is inspired: His voice still cracks like an adolescent’s, and he has the perfect dopey innocence. - 80
Village Voice
Bolt carries two tales for the price of one, both handled by Disney veterans and first-time directors Chris Williams and Byron Howard with wit, grace, and the dazzling craftsmanship we've come to expect from the studio that's hitched its wagon to Pixar. - 80
The New York Times
What keeps Bolt fresh is an unaffected exuberance, a genuine sense of fun, that is expressed above all through obsessive attention to craft. - 78
Austin Chronicle
This is a Disney film, so there's never any real question regarding Bolt and his friends' ultimate success or failure, but the writing team of Dan Fogelman (Cars) and co-director Williams (Mulan) have concocted one of the most witty and often hilarious Disney outings in years. - 75
Philadelphia Inquirer
While this charmer about a canine James Bond does not pack the emotional punch of "WALL-E," it's frisky fun to see the white shepherd get a new leash on life. - 70
The Hollywood Reporter
There's a terrific tenderness in Travolta's performance, while Cyrus and company are similarly effective.
