Movie Reviews

Boston Globe - 9/10 by Jay CarrThe contrast of light and dark, good and evil, enlightenment and ignorance, innocence and corruption is the heart of this absurd, insightful, sincere, very funny fairy tale of a movie. The cast is uniformly superb.
Variety - 9/10 by Joe LeydonA delightfully twisted fairy tale that artfully juggles broad tomfoolery and sly drollery, along with a generous serving of sight gags enhanced by special effects. Even though it's being pitched primarily at younger moviegoers and their parents, pic is exuberantly quirky enough to please almost anyone.
San Francisco Chronicle - 8/10 by Edward GuthmannA zingy self-empowerment fantasy for kids.
Entertainment Weekly - 8/10 by Ty BurrClearly, a lot of grown-up types are going to despise Matilda: gym teachers, school psychologists, used-car salesmen, critics who like their family fare immobilized by homiletic virtue. But kids will understand.
ReelViews - 8/10 by James BerardinelliHardly a moment of Matilda can be described as either juvenile or condescending, and, compared with many of this summer's so-called mature features, that makes for a delightfully refreshing change-of-pace.
Chicago Sun-Times - 8/10 by Roger EbertMatilda doesn't condescend to children, it doesn’t sentimentalize, and as a result it feels heartfelt and sincere. It's funny, too.
Miami Herald - 8/10 by Christine DolenCentered on Mara Wilson's extraordinary young girl Matilda, the kooky fantasy is comprised of charm, warmth and screwball comedy.
San Francisco Examiner - 8/10 by Barbara ShulgasserDeVito directed this wonderful fantasy about a brilliant little girl with strange powers and a sunny disposition. Using special effects DeVito creates a visual delight that seems more British than American partly due to the origin of the material and partly due to the playfulness of DeVito and writers Nicholas Kazan and Robin Swicord.
Chicago Tribune - 8/10 by Michael WilmingtonA sprightly fairy tale full of darkness and delight from seemingly unlikely movie collaborators: author Roald Dahl and director-star Danny DeVito.
Washington Post - 7/10 by Esther IveremI wish more had been made of the power of books versus the power of a studio's special-effects department.
