Gulliver’s travels

Starring Jack Black, Emily Blunt, Amanda Peet and TJ Miller, it is a modern 3D comedy that takes on the classic tale of Gulliver’s travels.

Jack Black is Lemuel Gulliver, a lowly mailroom clerk at a New York newspaper.

After Gulliver bluffs his way into an assignment writing about the Bermuda Triangle, he goes there only to be transported to an undiscovered land, Lilliput. In this fantastical new world, Gulliver is, at last, a bigger-than-life figure – in size and ego, especially after he starts telling tall tales, taking credit for his world’s greatest inventions, and placing himself at the centre of its most historic events.

Gulliver’s position is enhanced even further when he leads his new friends in a daring battle against their longtime enemies.

But when Gulliver loses it all and puts the Lilliputians in peril, he must find a way to undo the damage.
