Product Description

Superstar Patrick Swayze (GHOST) stars as gun-slinging, tornado-riding cowboy legend Pecos Bill in Disney's most rousing Western adventure yet! Summoned by the imagination of a young boy, Pecos sets out to help the lad save the family farm from a greedy land-grabber. Teaming with two other larger-than-life heroes -- a mighty lumberjack and a hulking railroad worker -- they embark on an incredible journey where danger and surprises await at every turn. Packed with plenty of rollicking action and visual effects, untamed adventure doesn't ride any faster or shoot any straighter than TALL TALE: THE UNBELIEVABLE ADVENTURE!|Cinematographer Janusz Kaminski, who shot SCHINDLER'S LIST, worked on the film.|Locations through the West included the Roaring Fork Valley of Colorado, Monument Valley in Utah, Lake Powell and Glen Canyon in Arizona, and Death Valley in California.

Loved the story using folk tale characters as a kid and now played it for my son and daughter and they also loved the storyline
Reviewed in the United States on November 29, 2015
Its not all that bad. Anyone who's a fan of Disney can watch it. It starts off like this, how most relationships are between a father & son. I didn't quite understand what was going on until the meeting, & that guy whoever he is there trying to persuade people to sell him their land to extend the railroad track through paradise valley. If you like your land don't consider selling. So the boy quickly learns how his father feels, & runs away with the deed. I'll say this the movies good, but don't expect a huge old giant of Paul Bunyan like in the cartoon. Patrick Swayze is Pecos Bill in the movie, but I think the mustache he's wearing is fake. To me though he looks silly, he makes a pretty good cowboy that can almost make you laugh, then Oliver Platt stars as Paul Bunyan, he is strong & a perfect character for the movie, he really only looks around 6 ft. 7'' though. Good costumes by the way. John Henry is also impressive, as he tries to beat the machine. He almost did, & Daniel Hackett after being warned by Pecos, (Stay away from the horse or he'll kill you), doesn't take long before Widow Maker makes an acception for Daniel as a friend, & winning the horses respect to where he'd allow Daniel to pet him. Like every movie I've watched before the parts are impressive. I liked the criminal played by Scott Glen who stays on their trail no matter where they go. I know how it all seems, Daniel falling asleep & drifting away in the boat & ending up in the desert. & then him ending up back in the boat again near his home, it wasn't a dream, & I don't believe he magically got sent back in time or into the future, but the legend his father told him does come to life. They all did a perfect Job of assisting Daniel.
& he learned that your own land can be worth much more than any amount of money no matter how much ones offering.
I think whether or not its a family or an audience that watched this, they would most likely be cheering!
To me its worth the enjoyment! There should of also been a cartoon about Pecos Bill, which I remember seeing years ago back in the 80's, on the every day Disney cartoons.
I also saw Paul Bunyon. I don't remember seeing John Henry.
There should have been a cartoon movie about all 3 of them something we do remember.

Reviewed in Germany on September 16, 2013
Daniel Hackett(Nick Stahl) saves a small farming community from greedy land grabbers with the help of 3 legendary characters Pecos Bill(Patrick Swayze), Paul Bunyan(Oliver Platt) and John Henry(Roger Aaron Brown). Daniel's father(Stephen Lang) has told him the fables of these charatcers yet he refuses to believe until he is in desperate need of help. With the help of his new found friends Daniel saves the day. This movie is set in the mis to late 1800s I suppose and was a joy to watch. Cameo appearances are made by Burgess Meredith(Mickey from the Rocky movies) and Catherine O'Hara who plays Calamity Jane.
This movie is suitable for all ages and is an excellent fantasy/adventure film.
