Review
Gulliver's Travels is based off the tale of the same name by Jonathan Swift, which has been adapted into film a few times, this being one of them. It might interest you to know this was the first made by a company other than Disney and only the second cel-animated feature film ever released (Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs being first) This was made by Fleischer Studios (Created by Dave and Max Fleischer), who also did the 1940s Superman shorts and Popeye. So how it after over 70 years? It's...Not bad. It definitely is different then Disney in the range of animation (This uses rotoscoping for Gulliver, rotoscoping being live action footage being traced frame by frame.) It doesn't run very long, but it does boast enough usefulness to keep relevance throughout. This was a big success for Fleischer Studios, and they would make another animated film film two years later in 1941...

Overall, I give it 8 out of 10 stars.
