    Any redeeming features are soon bludgeoned into oblivion by the relentless tedium of Bolt's combat. [Apr 2009, p.88]
  2. Disney should've given Bolt's right-hand hamster Rhino his own game instead of shoving this one through the doggy door.

    A humorous ensemble film about self-discovery turns into an unoriginal two-character action game with nothing to say in Bolt, Disney's competent but uninspired adaptation of the new toon.

The repetitive nature of the combat made me not want to pick it back up and ever play again. Only a fourth of the way through it is easy to tell the formula the game uses, fight a bunch of enemies, fight helicopter. The game has promising platforming mechanics, especially considering the crowd it's marketed to, but it is let down by every other aspect. Full Review »
