I consulted the common sense review before taking my children, 2-1/2 and 6 years to this movie. It begins with a lot of intense actions scenes, explosions, and violence and my son asked to leave, which we did at about the 10 minute mark after the point when it was shown that the scenes were from a 'TV show', some of the characters were scary looking to my son. My 2-1/2 year old continued to watch the movie with her father and enjoyed it. I agree with other reviewers that found this too scary for their 5 year+ children and when I asked for a refund for our 2 tickets, I was told that we were not the only ones who had done so for this movie.

Bolt is a very good and funny movie but some parts are a little bit violent.

my son cried some at the end, beacuse it was very sad, but overall great!

I think that Bolt was a very cool movie. I so want that game and i think that it would be appropriate for like anyone who can be quiet to what the movie, HAHA.Well that is what i think of the movie blot

i really liked the movie. it was touching and i cried at the ind but i am an overly sensitive person. really cute comparison for love, and determination for a kid.

I thought this movie should have been rated G. I didn't find anything in it for it to be PG and I'm pretty picky. I don't think it was scary for young children ages 5 and under. Of course they're not going to understand some the filming where Bolt thought he was a real super-hero dog. I thought it was a perfect movie!

it was ok

I went to see this movie today and already reviewing it because it was so good! I liked it because it's different unlike other movies with just plain superdogs,like Underdog and stuff like that. Some parts may be found scary for younger kids,at the end of the movie you will find a burning building but Bolt saves the day.

If your child has been somewhat desensitized to violence and peril (perhaps by Disney?) already, then this film should work for him or her. I enjoyed it. But my 5-year-old was confused by the blurred line between the movie's fiction and reality: the scary stuff that occurred in the fictitious setting of Bolt's TV show didn't seem harmless to her at all. Like most of Disney's other G movies of late, it's too ominous and perilous for young minds -- for little ones who are afraid of such benign things as the dark or people who make angry faces when they're talking. That's my five-year-old. She literally screamed and jumped across two seats, from her aunt's lap to mine, over a frightening scene that was fortunately near the movie's end. It was made clear soon after the scene (during which an evil bad guy comes at the movie's star with a sharp hypodermic needle while she's bedridden in the hospital in head-wrap bandages due to facial reconstruction necessitated by a catastrophic fire that nearly killed her and Bolt) that the scene was from the fictitious TV show featured in the film. Just think about how scary that is for a young kid to see. The line between fantasy and reality is very blurred for them already! Don't take your child until you're sure that he/she is very clear on the line between fantasy and reality.

This is a good movie, I loved it!!! Some parts are a little scary for people 5 years and under. Alexander

I took my 5yr old daughter and we both spent the entire movie laughing. I didn't have to explain anything to her at all. She caught on quickly so it was a very enjoyable movie for both of us . . . unlike Madagascar2 where she ended up bored halfway through the movie and I was uncomfortable with some of the jokes. I didn't feel there was anything inappropriate in the movie. I even jumped at the opportunity of the fire at the end to explain the danger of playing with candles and matches.

We took our 2 6 year-old boys to this movie, and we all loved it. It was entertaining from beginning to the end, the boys understood what was going on, and there was nothing inappropriate in the plot or story. I really liked it. The characters were good - I especially liked the pigeons - and I don't remember any obvious stereotypes. It's hard to find a movie that doesn't make you cringe at some point when you are watching with your kids, there always seems to be an unnecessary death or sexual undertones, but I didn't see any in this movie.

My family of 5 all enjoyed this movie!! I laughed A LOT along with my kids 11, 8 & 6!!

How do you explain to a child that the pretend characters were pretending to be in fights up until the end where they where really in danger. Ugh- my brain hurts from trying. Honestly at one point the two leads pass in out a burning building. Most of the movie is an animated version of Mission Impossible or Die Hard. And the fact that they are all pretending doesn't make it okay-children really dont get that until they are older. Im shocked at the low age rating, even Madagascar 2 got 6+ and that was like Barney in comparison. If your kids are older, its great, but not for the younger crowd.

In Ontario it costs over $70.00 for a family of 4. This movie was fabulous from beginning to end.
