"Gulliver's Travels" is one of my favorite novels when I was a child. I can say that I have read it no less than four times. This book is most famous for its descriptions of the Lilliputian Kingdom and the Adult Kingdom, as well as the Feidao Kingdom and Huima. It satirizes the British government at that time with an interesting and absurd plot. This book is full of deeper connotations, but I didn’t understand it when I was young, so reading it again now should give you many new impressions. The movie has made a major adaptation of the original work, and the plot has become a story in which the protagonist of Diaosi has changed through the adventure of the Lilliputian country to get the heroine. It can be said that it is a relatively popular routine in Hollywood. But as a movie, I think this adaptation is still quite interesting. In addition, I think the most prominent part is the details, such as the room layout of the protagonist at the beginning of the film, which corresponds to the room built by Lilliput; the detailed description of Lilliput; the protagonist plagiarizes various classic movies in Lilliput. Frightening and spoofing, etc., fully demonstrated the character of the protagonist who loves to talk big and pretend to be forceful. At the same time, in the final defeat of the general, when the king wants to execute the enemy soldiers and civilians, the protagonist promotes the idea of anti-war peace, love and understanding through anti-war music and dance, which is quite good.
Movie adaptations always have to pay some price, and they do not have as deep connotations as the original works, and the adaptation into a movie gives some popular factors, such as "diaosi becomes tall and handsome" or "as long as you dare to step out of your comfort zone, you can succeed" and other inspirational inspirations Element. But this is inevitable after all. If you want to condense a novel into a film of about two hours, there will inevitably be losses and gains. You should look at this film as a new work to feel whether it is wonderful or not. .
