Critics Consensus

Though Jack Black is back doing what he does best, Gulliver's Travels largely fails to do any justice to its source material, relying instead on juvenile humor and special effects.

[A] dumb excuse for a movie.

As disinterested in itself as Gulliver's Travels seems to be, it's a wonder it ever came into existence at all.

Black's take on Gulliver's Travels may be released in the closing days of 2010 - but there will be few less impressive films in the year to come.

1.5/4.0

A Jack Black film is a goodhearted comedy that allows Black to put on full display the two cinematic notes he has mastered, broad comedy and the puppy dog look.

Throwaway hangover fodder, big on goofiness and small on invention.

Quite a good film. I don't know why everyone is hating on it. Quite funny and features the awesome Jack Black.

Filme bacana, o roteiro é bacaninha, as cenas sao bacaninhas, o elenco é bacaninha, e alguns ajudam a melhorar o filme, a história é mais ou menos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes para fazer o filme ser bom.

It is different from the original book yet it gives a weird modern vibe that is kind of enjoyable and teaches a simple but valuable lesson about the value of honesty and the consequences of a lie.
