As sprightly and determined as its fuzzy, yappy lead, this new Disney animated film works hard to be all things to all people, with mixed results. The story of “Bolt,” a TV-star pooch (voiced by John Travolta) who’s accidentally mailed from Los Angeles to New York, the movie follows our hero (plus a cat and a daft hamster) across America in search of his owner and co-star, Penny (Miley Cyrus). But because Bolt, sheltered by his producers from the outside world, believes he truly is the superdog he plays on the tube, the film’s simple dog-meets-girl, girl-loses-dog, dog-seeks-girl story jockeys for attention with some fairly sophisticated Hollywood satire, complete with a smooth-talking agent and splashy action scenes. The result is a family film with an identity crisis: “The Incredible Journey” meets “Entourage” meets “The Truman Show.” Contains mild action and peril. DVD extras include “Super Rhino” bonus short; deleted scenes; in session with John Travolta and Miley Cyrus; music video; digital copy. (All extras, excluding the bonus short, are available on the two-disc special edition only.)
