  • 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.
