Customer Reviews of The Secret Adventures of Tom Thumb
2nd Coming of Christ? I originally saw this at college while annebriated, then absolutely had to go back and watch it again sober. Then I had to buy the VHS, and now am eyeing the DVD.
Rather than listening to dialogue, you must use your eyes to "hear" what is going on. Several friends went along with me to see this at college, and they were strangely satisfied when I described it as a portrayal of Tom Thumb as a pawn (or son of) God sent to quietly liberate a hopelessly degraded and lost humanity. In this world, science has imprisoned God, and Tom is there to liberate him.
While the film was quiet (virtually no dialogue), my mind was alive with thoughts; this experience is truly a refreshing one.

eye candy, no plot. beautiful movie, but at least add a plot to it.
Secret Adven. of Tom Thumb (1994) d: Borthwick, Dave
Dark Bolex Bros. fantasy about the life of a miniature baby born into a world of giant misfits & social freaks who grunt and coo without saying anything intelligent. Out of step time and place, populated by scurrying spiders and other unidentifiable species of insects makes this piece much like the films of the Brothers Quay or the outstanding work of animation master Jan Svankmajer. This is a weird film that blends live-action footage with stop-motion claymation set in a world of dark back alleys; high tech labs, and swampy landscapes of garbage ruins. Tom Thumb is stolen from his home in the seedy part of town by sinister government agents. He later escapes from an evil lab where mutation experiments are performed. Narrowly escaping he finds himself in a land of people his own size fighting the big people alongside Jack the Giant killer. Genuine horror and moving moments that have the power to unsettle and enchant in equal measure. Definitely one of the most intoxicating and mesmerizing animated films I've seen in a very long time.
