The only thing that I didn't like was the device where a statue of Tonto comes alive to tell the story to a little kid at a 1933 carnival. That was a bit over the top for me. The rest however I thought was fantastic. Some of the audience members clapped at the end when he shouted "Hi Ho Silver, Away!"
Have been hoping that someone would put a review of this movie on TOTV. I'll probably see it in the next month or so. I often wait for the last few days of a movie's run.
