The plot does the same animation as the book and cartoon film, but there are changes. Lemuel Gulliver (Jack Black) is presented as the boss of a newcomer named Dan (T.J. Miller), but Dan gets promoted and is now Gulliver's new boss. Deeply depressed at his dead-end job in the mail room, Gulliver decides to talk to journalist Darcy Silverman (Amanda Peet). He convinces her he could write a report about his (false) extensive world "travels" saying his dream is to become a writer. After suffering writer's block, he plagiarises a report from other publications on the Internet. The next day, Darcy, impressed by his writing, presents Gulliver with a new task – to travel to the Bermuda Triangle and write an article confirming that the legend of ships mysteriously disappearing in the area being caused by extraterrestrials is not true.
Upon arrival in Bermuda, Gulliver rents a boat and travels into the triangle. He's caught in a freak storm and the boat is overwhelmed by a waterspout. He washes up unconscious, on the shore of Lilliput, where he is immediately confirmed as a "beast" by the town's tiny population. He is captured and imprisoned in a cave, citizens claiming him to be dangerous, because of his huge size. Here, he meets another prisoner named Horatio (Jason Segel) who was jailed by General Edward (Chris O'Dowd) because he fancies Princess Mary of Lilliput (Emily Blunt), whereas Edward wants her for himself. After the island across from Lilliput enacts an invasion, Gulliver manages to break free of the plough-machine he is forced to work and then rescues the princess from being kidnapped and her father, King Benjamin (Billy Connolly) from a fire.
Gulliver is declared a hero by Lilliput's citizens, and Gulliver makes up a deal of lies saying he is the President of the United States and a living legend in his homeland. Edward, however, becomes enraged due to the luxurious accommodations he receives, even being presented as an honorary general of Lilliput. When the townspeople find Gulliver's boat and his things, Gulliver gets angry voice mail messages from Darcy, angrily saying she has to take his place and travel to Bermuda now, and also found out about his plagiarism and she no longer wishes to be friends with him. The next day, chaos ensues as the population across from Lilliput enact an attack on the city when Edward shuts down the defenses surrounding Lilliput, as an act of revenge for Gulliver treatment. Gulliver defeats the neighboring population again, invulnerable to the cannonballs being fired at him (although he receives numerous welts on his stomach).
Edward abandons the Lilliputian army, joining the enemy forces instead. Using a powerful and gigantic robot from one of Gulliver's sci-fi magazines that they secretly built, Edward makes Gulliver surrender after he is beaten and embarrassed by Edward's robot, he is banished to the island across from Lilliput, admittedly saying to his onlookers that he is "just the guy from the mail-room" and nothing more. Meanwhile, on the shores of Brobdingnag ("the island where we dare not go"), he is captured by Glumdaclitch and forced to become her doll. Darcy is then imprisoned by the Lilliputians when she is lost in the Bermuda Triangle in the same manner as Gulliver. Horatio reveals to Gulliver that she is imprisoned. Gulliver narrowly escapes with him, using a parachute from Glumdaclitch's dollhouse that he took from a dead air force aviator.
Once again accepting a duel from Edward, Gulliver ultimately defeats him with the assistance of Horatio, who disables the machine's electrocuting weapon. Horatio is hailed a hero and gets King Benjamin's permission to court the princess. Edward, reaching the point of insanity, threatens to kill the princess, but the princess, finally having enough of Edward, beats him up in frustration. Gulliver then helps to make peace between the rival island nations by reciting Edwin Starr's "War" and he, along with Darcy, return to New York on their repaired boat. It's revealed they later became a couple and successful fiction writers in New York, writing about their experiences on Lilliput.
Now, are you ready to travel? Gulliver's Travels NOW SHOWING IN ALL THEATERS NATIONWIDE.
As we could recall that Aguilera always portrayed almost sexy dance music videos in her songs like Candyman, Ain't No Other Man, and among others. Surely, her role in Burlesque fits her attitude and style. No doubt that the trailer is overwhelming and beguiling to the public. While Cher is an American recording artist, actress, director, and record producer. Referred to as the Goddess of Pop, she has won an Academy Award, a Grammy Award, an Emmy Award, three Golden Globes and a Cannes Film Festival Award among others for her work in film, music and television. Cher began her career as a backup singer and later came to prominence as one half of the pop rock duo Sonny & Cher with the success of their song "I Got You Babe" in 1965.
