I was pretty disappointed. Not to spoil anything, but the opening premise is more interesting than the actual twist premise. I wanted THAT movie!

The first 15 minutes or so were spectacular, especially in 3D. But then it treads very familiar territory. Big and bright, at least, and some good vocal work. The pigeons steal the show.

It's doing OK at the box office, but Disney can't be happy that Dreamworks' Madagascar 2 is outgrossing it 2 to 1.

I haven't seen it, but I got a bit of a disappointing vibe off of it. We saved up our family movie mojo for Despereaux, and weren't disappointed.

We had the choice between Bolt and Despereaux. I chose Bolt due to the Disney pedigree. Looks like I chose wrong.

I rather enjoyed Bolt myself. And I wouldn't have wanted to see a movie about the TV show character.

I liked it. I think I'd seen one too many bleak movies recently, and a don't-think-too-hard-just-laugh movie is pretty much what I wanted out of this one.

We liked it. It was a cute film. I agree with James.
