- I love this movie it is amazing about a girl with bad parents and a reallly bad principal and a mean brother and father. But Matilda ends up living a great life with Ms.Honey who adopted her. and then she was full of a happy living life, with no one to be rude to her and no one tellling her what to do like her dad did. Ohh and ya Matilda has magical powers. Want to hear more watch the movie. If I was you I would go rent that movie and watch over and over again. Great overall movie.
