Wouldn't we all want to be Roald Dahl's Matilda, with her sunny self-reliance and special powers? Well, that will go double in this fantastic adaptation of Dahl's book, one which faithfully captures his unique storytelling voice and spirit. At the fearsome Crunchem Hall school, Matilda makes a friend of the kind Miss Honey - and an enemy of the bullying headmistress, Miss Trunchbull. But Matilda isn't one to give in to bullies - and after all, what are special powers for if not to teach them a lesson?

    I loved Matilda but it was really scary. It was so scary i thought i was going to cry. The best character was Matilda. The scariest character was the head teacher. The best teacher was Miss Honey. I was really scared when the head teacher swung a little girl over the gate by her hair. I think Matilda's mom and dad are really rude. It was funny when the boy had chocolate all over his face.

    I saw the first bit of the film this week.
    It was a great film!! I liked the little girl, Matilda, she's small and very nice to Miss Honey. She is very, very clever!!
