Gulliver's Travels
In a seemingly different and controversial story, with Limuel Gulliver playing an important role in Bermuda, but ending up on the island of Lilliput, where he meets his young citizens there. During Limuel's presence in that small town, his new comrades are using his huge size to help defend Lilliput land from belligerent competitors, where it seems very exciting.

The over the top performances of the well-spoken Lilliputians, and even that of Jack Black, go a long way towards helping make the movie better, but sadly, they just couldn't save the material from itself.

It's a product for undemanding children to consume, one they'll forget pretty quickly after leaving the theater.

The pitch to remake this was probably four words: Gulliver's Travels Jack Black. No adjectives, no adverbs, and, most of all, no imagination. Fox took the bait, and this Christmas there's something smelling rotten under the tree.

Despite its broad strokes of goofball, sometimes gross-out comedy tailored to Black's gonzo style, the movie does echo some of the classic novel's farcical observances.

The film stumbles along a predictable path, and there is an audible wince when Gulliver says, "These little people have grown large in my heart."

While the film retains the satire of the original story, it goes too far with the pop culture references.

[A] dumb excuse for a movie.

Like its protagonist, Gulliver's Travels is big, dumb, and slow-moving, a lumbering oaf of a movie that just barely makes it to feature-length via a groaningly unnecessary production number set to Edwin Starr's "War."

Some films are phoned in. The staggeringly awful "Gulliver's Travels" was texted.

I will tell you there's a cast credit for a character described only as "Butt-crack man." Consider yourself warned.

There is laziness at every turn -- in the writing, in the acting, in the filmmaking. Don't reward these yahoos.
