Matilda is about a little girl who is getting bullied by her family and her school principal for being too smart.
I grew up with this movie and the resson why I'm reviewing the original 1996 verson is because there is a new version of Matilda that is on Netflix. Both movies have the same story but the new one is a musical. There is also a Musical Theater version in London that the Net flix movie is based on.
The original movie happens to be my favotite movie of all time. I like the story and fun fact, Rahl Dahl is my favorite author. The movie is both funny and creepy with great over the top acting. The musical version also has great dancing.
Because my great-grandfather I call him Pop Pop from Florida used to watch this movie with me when was a kid and it holds a special place in my heart. If you like musicals with a great story, this movie is a must see.
If you would like to see the stage version without going to London, I will be playing the role of Matilda's Father, Mr. Wormward in June. Stay tuned for more details.
