    Quite... a fantasy tale. probably would be in the same category as Neverending Story, but more American oriented with all those cowboys and the wild west.

    It's mostly about the 'common man' against the 'large industry', though this is taking it quite to extremes.

    I'm kinda bored now, after having watched this.

    This one I like cause they say that legons are not true, but what if they are and with pecos bill, I always wanted to chase twisters and to see old cowboy roping one and riding it, makes you think, what if?

    I remember this movie from when I was a kid. I remember being disappointed in John Henry's character, but loving the story....and the shooting off of perople's trigger fingers.
