Bolt

Cast: John Travolta, Susie Essman, Miley Cyrus, Nick Swardson and Mark Walton
Release date: November 21
Why you should see it: Bolt (Travolta) is the doggie star of a TV show in which he—a la Lassie and Benji—often saves the day with his heroic canine actions. But because Bolt has spent his entire life on the set, he believes he really is a heroic dog. So when, through a comedy of errors, he makes his way into the real world, it's with a false sense of his capabilities.
Box office bottom line: Travolta's Bolt is an endearing character, but if you've seen the trailer you know that Walton, as hamster Rhino, steals the show. The movie's the first kiddie flick we've been looking forward to since WALL*E, and we're already anticipating the Rhino desk toys we’re going to find in our stockings this holiday.
