Bolt is a 2009 American computer-animated action-adventure comedy-drama movie, produced by Walt Disney Animation Studios and distributed by Walt Disney Pictures. It is the 48th movie in the Walt Disney Animated Classics series. The movie is about a small white pet dog who lives on the set of a television series and thinks that he has super powers. When he believes that his human owner, Penny has been kidnapped, he goes on a cross-country journey to "rescue" her. Bolt is aided by a cynical cat named "Mittens" (who was abandoned by her human owner) and "Rhino" a hampster. Bolt finds Penny and actually rescues her from a accidental TV Studio fire. Penny, Bolt (who have quit show business), Mittens and Rhino live with Penny's Mother in the country. As for the TV show, it continues with a different "Penny" (explained as Plastic Surgery following a life threatening accident) being rescuded by a new "Bolt" from the Evil Dr Calico; as Penny and Bolt escape outside a hospital window they are both abducted by flying saucers Aliens! This cliffhanger ending is so ridiculious that even Bolt fanatic "Rhino" refuses to believe it!

Bolt was the first Disney animated movie to use the closing variant of the Walt Disney Animation Studios logo. It was Disney's first PG-rated animated movie presented in Disney Digital 3-D.
