Movie review matilda 1996. Matilda United States 1996 A movie review by James Berardinelli Arriving in the latter half of the summer Danny DeVitos Matilda beats out such worthy contenders as The Hunchback of Notre Dame and Harriet the Spy for best family fare of the season. Not the greatest kid movie ever but it holds a special place in my heart. Read the Empire Movie review of Roald Dahls Matilda.

A few scenes may be too scary for younger children and though there is no cussing the speech is occasionally very caustic. Parents need to know that Matilda is a 1996 surreal family movie based on the book by Roald Dahl. But Danny DeVito -- nasty brutish and short -- lets his ego get in the way.

Starring Danny DeVito Mara Wilson Rhea Perlman Embeth Davidtz Pam Ferris Paul Reubens Tracey Walter.

DeVito does Dahl in Matilda a delightfully twisted fairy tale that artfully juggles broad tomfoolery and sly drollery along with a generous serving of sight gags enhanced by special effects. Those bad guys are sooooo bad and Matildas bravery in conflict and eventual triumph are exciting and fun. Matilda Wormwood is a brilliant child of only six years old who grew up between rude and ignorant parents.

This film adaptation of a Roald Dahl work tells the story of Matilda Wormwood a gifted girl forced to put up with a crude distant father and mother. Unfortunately Matilda is misunderstood by her family because she is very different from their ways of life. In Matilda two mean-spirited talents create a delightfully vicious movie.

MATILDA Please feel free to comment on my review. I remembered it being more darker and magical than it ended up being but the relationship between Miss Honey and Matilda is still super cute. It happens that she was born and raised in the most disgusting family a child could get.

O n the surface Matilda is an entertaining excursion through a childs world of good vs. His father Harry works as a car salesman while his mother Zinnia is a housewife. Matilda is not in any sense a childrens movie although older children will probably like it a lot.

I have very fond childhood memories of this film when I. This film made me feel like it was ok to be a bit weird geeky and cringy when I was growing up.
