Amazon.co.uk Review:
Danny DeVito's adaptation of the Roald Dahl book for children is mostly just fine, helped along quite a bit by the charming performance of Mara Wilson (Mrs Doubtfire) as the eponymous young Matilda, a brilliant girl neglected by her stupid, self-involved parents (DeVito and Rhea Perlman). Ignored at home, Matilda escapes into a world of reading, exercising her mind so much she develops telekinetic powers. Good thing, too: sent off to a school headed by a cruel principal, Matilda needs all the help she can get. DeVito takes a highly stylized approach that is sometimes reminiscent of Barry Sonnenfeld (director of Get Shorty, a DeVito production), and his judgement is not the best in some matters, such as letting the comic-scary sequences involving the principal go on too long. But much of the film is delightful and funny.--Tom Keogh

Film review of Matilda (1996)
Star rating-\\\gg
Matilda was originally written as a children¡¦s novel by Roald Dahl (tales of the unexpected) in 1988. His wry wit and humour certainly makes the book an enjoyable read and this humour still shows in Danny DeVito¡¦s movie version of the novel with a contrast of both American and English actors.
The film is about a young girl called Matilda played wonderfully by Mara Wilson (Miss Doubtfire). Though at the time, Wilson ... Read More

atilda Wormwood (Mara Wilson- Thomas and The Magic Railroad, A Simple Wish, Mrs Doubtfire) was born into a family that don't appreciate her. Her family are avid television watchers, but Matilda would prefer to curl up with a book.
Her father (Danny DeVito- Mars Attacks) is a used car salesman who sells used cars at several times the true amount. He makes a deal with a headmistress of a school (Pam Ferris- The Darling Buds of May) that he gives her a car in exchange for Matilda attending her school. ... Read More
Rating: - Childhood memories
This film has lots of centemental value to me as it was one of my most favourite films when i was growing up as a kid.
it's fun for the family and the scene where she's making things come to life with that song "Little betty pretty one" by "Bobby Darin", is the ultimate jump around, feel good song.
so i suggest you buy it now and start enjoying your childhood memories over again, as i miss mine.
Rating: - Little and Large
This film is so good - for both kids and adults - that I think Dahl himself must be looking down from Heaven and smiling - after the rumours of what he felt about the production of The Witches. Some of the characterisations, sets and costumes could have been put together by the master of kitsch, Baz Luhrmann, and this is a testament to both Dahl's eye for detail and Danny DeVito's wicked sense of humour - and vice versa. Although in many ways the story has been changed and not least Americanised, Dahl's original ... Read More
Rating: - Great movie
I have seen this film loads of times and I have read the book as well.It shows that you can be intelligent as a little kid,like Matilda.She is a very sweet little girl with a beautiful teacher called Miss Honey.In the end,they manage to get rid of Miss Trunchbull,the principal who is insane.She also happens to be Miss Honey's stepaunt.
