Critic Reviews of "Tall Tale"
Entertainment WeeklyAugust 16, 2017The exquisitely photographed landscapes pull you out of your living room and into the grandeur of the West.
VarietyMarch 26, 2009If the kids can be enticed into theaters during opening weekend, "Tall Tale" is a safe bet to generate strong word of mouth.
Los Angeles TimesFebruary 13, 2001If a good children's film is supposed to open the eyes of its young audience, then the somewhat misleadingly titled "Tall Tale: The Unbelievable Adventures of Pecos Bill" is mighty good.
Washington PostJanuary 01, 2000Mickey's minions herein transform three of America's rootin'est, tootin'est frontier superheroes into politically and ecologically corrected pablum-spewing icons for our time.
San Francisco ChronicleJanuary 01, 2000A children's movie with enough gumption, fire and wit to warm the cockles of an adult heart.
People MagazineAugust 16, 2017Dang it if Disney's latest for kids doesn't seem like The Wizard of Oz in chaps, sharing that classic's structure but minus its imagination, charm and songs.
TV GuideAugust 16, 2017It's homespun homily time: TALL TALE may look like a rousing adventure story for the whole family, but it's really a vehicle for the kind of tiresome moral aphorisms that only William Bennett could love. . .
Screen It!July 09, 2017This film contains the stereotypical western adventure movie material.
Baltimore SunJune 13, 2013Excuse me, is this any lesson for kids? Hey, kids, if you dream hard enough, mythical heroes will step out of your fantasies and help defeat your enemies with fancy gunplay.
Spirituality and PracticeAugust 26, 2002Proves that allies are always available to those who yearn to do the right thing.
