When I was a kid my mom found this movie for cheap on VHS and decided to buy it for me and my brothers. While I'm not sure how much they liked it, I instantly got caught up in the wonder and excitement of seeing these larger then life legends of old battling it out in a fun action adventure, all to help and protect a kid who needed them. As a grown man, it still manages to put a smile on my face everytime I see it. The whole cast is good, but for me the 2 that stand out the most are Oliver Platt as paul bunyan, with his quick comedic timing and hilarious lines and insults, and of course the late great Patrick Swayze as pecos bill, being the full embodiment of a hero of the west, and having the time of his life playing this character. While this movie is mostly unknown and will never win any awards or anything, it will always hold a special place in my heart and make my spirit sore. Tall tales are made to be enjoyed and spark the imagination, and that's exactly what this movie does
