Around the World in 80 Days

A meticulous English gentleman accepts a wager that he can circle the globe within 80 days, an extraordinary challenge in the 19th century. Accompanied by his lively servant, he travels by trains, ships, balloons, and other forms of transport, encountering colorful locations, comic mishaps, and varied cultures along the way.

My take

You’ll enjoy this if you like lavish old-fashioned adventures, broad humor, colorful travel, and star cameos, especially in the spirit of Chitty Chitty Bang Bang; Not for you if slow, episodic films test your patience.
