    A sequel that was just as good as the first and actually had more laughs, fights, and fun.
    The old style mass fights are always appealing to me, especially when their played for laughs like they are here.
    The acting is great and York makes a great addition as the boastful Mike ...( read more)Fink.
    It's a great family friendly Disney classic that is as good as the first and as much as my favorite.

    "I can out-run, out-jump, out-sing, out-swim, out-dance, out-shoot, out-eat, out-drink..."
    "Out-talk?"
    "Out-talk, out-cuss, out-fight anybody in the whole Mississippi and Ohio Rivers put together!"

    I had no idea this movie existed until recently. King of the Wild Frontier was a childhood favorite of mine, so I was interested to see what this would be like. I think its lesser known for a reason. much more fantasy-driven with less believable acting and storytelling. still ...( read more)a cool movie, but it's not exactly as top-notch as its predecessor.

    OK, maybe not as good as the 1st movie, but definitely more hilarious. Buddy Ebsen and Fess Parker are amazing together.
