The DVD was loose in the case when I got it, so I was a bit scared it would be scratched, but it survived! I can't believe I it was in such good quality to find such a rare find!
I would recommend in the future.

DVD Review: Gulliver's Travels
Summary: 5 Stars

My daughter saw this particular movie on TV years ago and wanted a copy but didn't know where to find one. I decided to check Amazon and there was a copy so I purchased a copy for my daughter for her birthday. She was very surprised and happy. Thanks for a great movie.

DVD Review: Good stuff.
Summary: 5 Stars

I can't believe I am saying this, but I liked the movie better than the book. I saw this a LONG time ago when I was maybe 13? and enjoyed it. A few years later, I picked up the book.

The reason I might have liked the movie better is because it had more feeling to it (the characters felt more real to me, and the addition of Mary and their son was a nice touch. I realize that Johnathan Swift was a satirical writer, and that his book was written in a different time period. Still, I enjoyed the movie immensely, and both book and movie get 5 stars for different reasons. Overall, two thumbs up.

DVD Review: A very accurate and entertaining film!
Summary: 5 Stars

As an English teacher, I was thrilled to find this version of the classic Swift story. Ted Danson and the rest of the cast deliver wonderful performances, and the special effects are amazing! The story truly comes to life in this version; because of its faithfulness to the book, it's perfect for students reading the story, and is an equally fun movie for anyone to simply enjoy. Highly recommended!

Description of Gulliver's Travels

Ebulliently imaginative and far more cleverly presented than you would expect from a TV miniseries, this satirical adventure succeeds by never pandering to the lowest common denominator. Closely based on Jonathan Swift's 1726 classic, it is enhanced by dazzling special effects from Jim Henson Productions and a superb, multi-ethnic cast. The biggest surprise is Ted Danson in the title role--one of his best performances, even if he is the only person in England without an accent. He conveys amusement, amazement, and intelligence as he travels from one strange country into another. Not that anyone back in Merry Old England believes Mr. Gulliver's tales of little people or giants. The story is told in flashback from an insane asylum, where he is forcibly confined. This far outshines several previous adaptations of Swift's satirical novel. --Rochelle O'Gorman
