Disney is calling this overlong and fragmented yarn "The Unbelievable Adventure" which is pretty accurate. A rambunctious lad (Nick Stahl) teams up with Pecos Bill, Paul Bunyan, and John Henry to stop a ruthless developer from turning farm land into railroad tracks. Nicely filmed, but the shopworn script and thundering music (which always tells you what to feel) are less than magical. Not recommended. (R. Pitman)
