Matilda is a very fun and enjoyable family movie. Matilda is about a young girl who gets abused, and mistreated, not only in her family but also at school. All Matilda ever wanted to do was to go to school. Matilda’s family is consisted of her dad, mother, and older brother. Her dad is a car dealer who cares about nothing but money. Her mom cares about nothing but getting money from the dad. Her older brother doesn’t really care about anything because he knows he is going to become like his dad. What they all have in common though is that they all don’t care about Matilda. Something about Matilda that everyone didn’t know was that she had amazing powers. Matilda’s dad makes a deal with a principle, and that got Matilda to get into school. The school on the other hand wasn’t a regular school. The school that Matilda went to was pretty much a nightmare. With the help of her teacher, Mrs. Honey, and her best friend, they seek revenge on the mean principle. I believe this movie is one of the best. I believe that because it is a fun and friendly movie that kids and adults can both watch. Even though kids may not understand the theme of the movie, it has a very clear theme. The theme of the movie is to treat people how you want to be treated. I would agree with critics about how they describe how mean the principle was. Overall I agree with everything Alicia blogged about and that it is worth paying money for this movie
