JasonS It was a lovely overcoming the odds type of film. Very nice ending. It’s worth a watch. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 07/10/24 Full Review Blu B All Time Classic. It's a shame this wasn't well received in 96'. It's difficult looking back to really understand why but sometimes gems like this fall through the cracks. It's a shame because man it would've been amazing too see what DeVito could do more of behind the camera. This is easily is crowning acheivement as a director. Fantastic direction in this. I love all the wide shots, how we see things from the view of a child, and how it changes as Matilda stands up for what's right representing her arc. Just first rate all around. Amazing cinematography and incredible practical effects that hold up remarkably well. Matilda is easily the best thing about this and is so charming, quirky, likeable, and good person beyond her years. Miss Honey is awesome too. Everyone else is really good too. This is basically if someone literally took the idea of Carrie and made it into a fantasy family comedy. It weaves effortlessly between being comedic, wholesome, and scary at times too. Just enough where it should'nt terrify little ones. DeVitos narration is excellent too and gives it more of a fairy tale feel as well. Wholesome, charming, and very original this is something everyone should give a watch once. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/04/25 Full Review Danna R I think it’s a movie with a very powerful lesson, because even though a child may be small and young, that doesn’t mean they aren’t strong, wise, or able to take care of themselves. I also believe it teaches parents to pay more attention to their children Danna reina 1001 Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/23/25 Full Review BlueTop World b My most favourite movie ever Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/18/25 Full Review laura m This is my favorite movie, because it makes us see that we are capable of doing anything and many times we limit ourselves to doing them because we believe that we are not capable of doing it and well seeing that the girl was always so alone and yet she continued and continued with her life until she finally found someone who really loved her.
