Gulliver's Travels: Review

starstarstarstar
This shoddy remake of the 1939 Fleischer Brothers feature simplifies Swift's satire even more than the original film. The difference between the two movies is that this one incorporates live-action footage with animation. Harris is unconvincing as Gulliver, reducing his portrayal to smiles and wrinkled brows. The animation is OK but nothing special, and certainly not as good as the original. The story is cutesified beyond belief. Swift's message about the insanity of war is told in simple black and white with no gray. "Gulliver" was put to animation previous to both this and the Fleischers by the Soviet Union in 1935. Using wax dolls, the story (called THE NEW GULLIVER) was standard Soviet propaganda with Gulliver uniting the Lilliputian workers. leave a comment
