What happens

Gulliver's Travels is a 2010 fantasy adventure comedy film directed by Rob Letterman in his live-action directorial debut, and written by Joe Stillman and Nicholas Stoller. It is loosely based on Part One (and slightly on Part Two) of the 1726 novel of the same name by Jonathan Swift, though the film takes place in the modern day and contains references to modern pop culture. It stars Jack Black in the title role, alongside Jason Segel, Emily Blunt, Amanda Peet, Billy Connolly, Chris O'Dowd, T.J. Miller, James Corden, Catherine Tate, and Olly Alexander. The film debuted in Spain on December 22, 2010, and was theatrically released in the United States on December 25, by 20th Century Fox, and in the United Kingdom the following day. It received negative reviews, and grossed $237.4 million worldwide on a budget of $112 million. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
