BOLT- A fantastic movie****

The movie I am going to talk about is titled” Bolt”. It is a fantastic movie. The movie amazed me, especially the climax. It was touching. The climax is a beautiful mould of love between the pet and the owner. Subsequently, many profusion scenes show the love between them. Though I watched it quite a number of times, I never got sick of it. That is the only evidence that can prove how the movie impressed me so much. It is a very gripping story. This is how the storyline goes…..

A girl named Penny (Miley Cyrus) and a dog named Bolt are stars on television hit series called Bolt in which the dog character has various superpowers and must constantly defeat the villain, Doctor Calico. To gain a more realistic performance, the TV show's producers have deceived Bolt his entire life, arranging the filming in such a way that Bolt believes the television show is real and makes him think that he really has superpowers. After filming the latest episode, Bolt escapes from his on-set trailer mistakenly believing Penny has been kidnapped by the television villain. He attempts to break through a window, knocking himself unconscious as he falls into a box of Styrofoam peanuts. With no one aware Bolt is in the box, it is shipped from Hollywood to New York City. In New York, he meets Mittens (Susie Essman), a female alley cat who bullies pigeons out of their food. Bolt, convinced and threaten Mittens which looks exactly like the villain‘s cat but it is not to help him get back to Hollywood, and the two start their journey. Meanwhile, in Hollywood, Penny is deeply saddened over Bolt's disappearance and did not wanted to continue filming. But she is being forced by the studio to continue filming with a dog that exactly appears like Bolt. As their adventure a proceeds, after many scoldings from the cat, Bolt starts to notice that his superpowers are not working, and rationalizes this is the effect that Styrofoam has on his body.
Surprised at his first feelings of both pain and hunger, Bolt is shown by Mittens how to act like a cute, but needy dog, and is rewarded by food. They meet Rhino (Mark Walton), a fearless, TV-obsessed hamster and huge Bolt fan who joins their team of continuing the journey to Hollywood. Mittens tries to convince Bolt that his superpowers aren't real, but their discussion is cut short by the arrival of Animal Control, who captures them both and transports them to an animal shelter. After being freed by Rhino, Bolt’s realization of his non- real powers made him sad. But Rhino’s motivation brightens him up. They rescued Mittens from the shelter and escape, allowing them to continue their journey. Along the way, Bolt learns to enjoy typical dog activities (such as hanging his head out the window), but Mittens refuses to go further. She tells Bolt that his Hollywood life is fake and there is no real love for him there. Her emotional rant reveals that she was once a house cat, but was abandoned by her previous owner and left to brave the harsh streets alone and declawed. Bolt refuses to believe that Penny doesn't love him, and continues on alone, wishing Mittens the best. Rhino, learning of Bolt's departure, convinces Mittens that they must help him, and the two set off to find Bolt once again.
Bolt reaches the studio, finding Penny embracing the dog that looks like him. Unaware that Penny still misses him and that her affection for that dog was only a part of a rehearsal for the show, he leaves, brokenhearted. Mittens, on a gantry in the studio, sees what Bolt does not - Penny telling her mother how much she misses Bolt. Realizing that Penny truly does love Bolt, Mittens follows Bolt and explains. At the same time, the Bolt-lookalike panics during filming and accidentally knocks over some torches, setting the sound stage on fire and trapping Penny. Bolt arrives and reunites with Penny inside the burning studio, being rescued as they succumb to smoke asphyxiation.
Penny and her mother subsequently quit the show when their agent attempts to exploit the incident for publicity purposes. Penny herself adopts Mittens and Rhino, and moves to a rural home to enjoy a simpler, happy lifestyle with Bolt and her new pets. The show continues, but with a replacement "Bolt" and "Penny"- "Penny's" new appearance being explained in the show as being serious injuries necessitating her undergoing facial reconstruction surgery and adopting an alien abduction storyline.

In total, this is an infallible movie. Please watch it!
