Walt Disney Tall Tale: The Unbelievable Adventure

Walt Disney Tall Tale: The Unbelievable Adventure
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.
Customer Review: Tall Tale DVD
This is a wonderful feel good movie. I reviewed the soundtrack which rocks our home when we play it. The movie just adds a full dimension to the music. When young Daniel rides Widowmaker at the end of the movie his smile is just too wonderful. This movie is a great kids' movie and teaches great lessons.
Customer Review: True Story Or Fantasy Western Come to Life? Answer: Neither. It Is a Tall Tale
In "Tall Tale" you have all the makings of a classic story. There is a very appealing, naïve young hero, who overcomes huge obstacles to right a terrible wrong, at great personal risk and potential loss. You have a greasy, sharp tongued villain and a herd of similar henchmen. You have an evil machine that seems to have a life of its own. You have the classic motive for action both good and ambiguous--money-and you have three--not one, but three--larger than life legendary heroes, who mentor and protect the naive, young hero, but do not diminish him by solving his problem for him. Could there be a more classic script? Probably not. It's a western, America's favorite genre, wonderfully cast, beautifully staged, and lovingly filmed. The wide open West, the mountains, the desert appear as if they were just made for the locale of the story. For the first 10 or 20 minutes, you won't even be fully convinced that it is a fantasy. It looks just like another Western, but as it takes off and the story develops, it becomes more and more improbably and more and more engaging. The legendary heroes begin to grow larger than life; the villains get slimier and slimier. I'm giving nothing away by telling you that it all comes out well in the end (all tall tales do), but not without some last minute heroics by the protagonists. Best of all this is a movie kids can watch and enjoy as much as the adults. The modest violence is child's play compared to more modern films, and the villains manage to exude evil without using a single four letter word. No one takes off all their clothes. If you are feeling beat up after a long week of work and want to see an uplifting, you-can-do-it-if-you-try movie, get "Tall Tale" while copies are still available. This is a true classic.

Customer Review: Gotta Love Golden Books!
I read this to our son, sadly, after he "out grew" these books, they were passed on. Happily, after searching all over I found these treasures on Amazon and now have a new collection for our beautiful grand daughter to enjoy.
Customer Review: A nice book to read to your children.
When it's time to put the kids to bed I highly recommend you read this book "Bambi and the Great Prince of the Forest," a midquel to the beloved story "Bambi." The book is pretty short only being 23 pages long with large print. Because the print is large and pretty easy to read this would be an ideal book for young children to start reading. The book also has very beautiful illustrations to incorporate with the imagination. The book takes place after Bambi's mother dies and the Great Prince is force to take care of him until winter is over; teaching him the ways of the forest. At first the Great Prince is reluctant but he opens up to him at the end. It has some laughs, action and very touching moments. You also see Bambi's old friends like Thumper, Flower, Friend Owl and his sweet heart Faline. You also see Bambi's rival Ronno who teases and picks on Bambi. After all Bambi has learned from his father he took all that and put it into use by saving his surrogate mother Mena from man. So if you need a good book to read for your kids then this book would be perfect for you!
