Directed by Rob Letterman and starring Jack Black, Gulliver's Travels is a modern version of Jonathan Smith's classic novel of the same title. The story revolves around Gulliver who ends up in Lilliput just as the novel goes. Found by Liliputians he was held captive for what I think was trespassing, this is where the movie goes in a separate direction to the novel. After seeing Gulliver as a man who is of great value, they pay him homage. The rest of the movie you might have to find out by yourself.
Personally, I didn't like the movie. I might have been too old for its target market or something else I am not sure but I really didn't enjoy it. Not even when they showed it in 3D, which was barely noticeable. The story was too shallow for my taste. Also, honestly, Jack Black doesn't seem to fit in movies with this taste. I would prefer to see him in a movie with an older range of audiences. Sure, there are those moments when you will laugh but you might just be able to count them in your fingers. They tried too much in this modern version and it really is something for the kids by ending it with a moral.
