The thing about Matilda punishing her dad in the movie, and the book, I think, is that he said "When a person is bad, that person deserves to be punished." So, Matilda concluded that since her parents are people, and they were bad, then by her dad's own logic, he deserved to be punished.

i feel like the weak point of the musical is the relationship between Matilda and Miss Honey, which is one of the most important parts os the original movie. Here, when Miss Honey adopts Matilda i was like "why? they barely know each other", but in the original movie it makes a lot of sense because the script makes a priority to sell to the audience that they had a real connection from the beggining.

Especially at points where it differs from the book. Just say "oh it is based on the musical" without the book part. People constantly adding the book part is just... weird. It is okay that a musical is different. Just if people did not read the book, but have seen the musical just don't use the "book". It is already funny we can watch it on tv while the books roast watching tv

Yeah, I haven't seen the new adaptation but seeing how they treated each child was a big part of understanding the family dynamic. The favoritism shows that they don't like Matilda because she's different from them (and arguably because she's a girl), but without the brother they're just abusive for the sake of being abusive.

I love how in the original, pivotal scenes like being thrown by your pigtails, or being yelled at by your dad, the camera mirrors Matilda’s eye level, really resonating with the young audience and making sure you FEEL that scene on a different level. It does more than just show parents this is how your kid feels, it FORCES you to feel it.

“When I grow up, I will be strong enough to carry all the heavy things you have to haul around with you to be a grown up” is another one of the lines that is so poignantly laced with double meaning. When I Grow Up is a very deep and, at times, sad song about the part of ourselves we are forced to give up (through trauma or even just the simple everyday responsibilities of life as an adult) as we grow up. It’s actually quite foundational to the entire Matilda story (and was the first song Minchin wrote for the musical). It is definitely not just about kids eating candy.

I think its worth noting that the director (who directed both the stage and movie musical), didn't watch the original movie so its purely based off the book. Anything choice made that is different/the same in the two movies is because they're based off the same book, but the musical is not based off the movie.

Yeah, the first time I heard 'When I grow up', years ago, I didn't consider it to be that relevant to the plot but it soon became one of my favourite songs in the show (if not my fave) as it's so moving with Miss Honey and the kids imagining a day when they'll be free from Miss Trunchbull and can once again be happy and dare to have dreams. It seems simplistic but has a lot of depth and meaning about how childhood isn't always a happy, carefree time and while some kids are forced to grow up too quickly, adults are still growing up and learning too.

This was the first Matilda song I heard from a Tony Awards performance. And at the time, I think the message of the song was delivered well even without context. When the song is sang by children, there's a bittersweet whimsy to it, because we as adults know that being "grown up" isn't as magical and free as they think it's gonna be. In the stage choreography, we actually see the kids playing around a set of swings. They would ride and stand on them, they would also twist and spin its strings as they slide across the floor. But then the music comes to a halt, the swings stay perfectly still... and an adult walks in singing the same words and sits on of the swings. All of a sudden the context of the lyrics change. And all that's left was the sad reality of being grown up. Again, at the time I didn't know what Matilda is. But this one song made it clear what its all about and I immediately wanted more of it.

In the musical stage production it ends with Matilda protecting her family from the Mafia by talking them down in Russian. It's a really funny scene and I loved it a lot. There is a dialogue that kinda goes "your father has been very rude and very very stupid. He has also been rude to you. When I am done with him he will still be stupid but maybe not as rude, would you like that?" And Matilda is just like "That is a very tempting offer, but he is still my father." The Miracle song in the beginning is also a lot more of a theme in the stage production, first in the first song, then a few times by miss honey (most of her songs and ark got cut to kinda change the general meaning of the movie from overcoming trauma to finding family, which is a bit more kid friendly but sad cause that ark was my favourite) and then lastly by the mafia boss when he lets the family go because as rude and stupid the family is, they still managed to put some good in the world and he doesn't wanna kill the family in front of her when she is more in favour of rehabilitation.

I think part of the reason for casting a (slightly) older actress as matilda is that we've learned in recent years how harmful the industry is to child actors, especially really young ones. out of the ones you mentioned, so many of them have spoken about how damaging those experiences were to go through at such a young age, and you can see how it affected their lives even years after it was over (like macaulay culkin, lindsay lohan, etc.) Even Mara Wilson herself has talked about how hard it was on her. And in a musical adaptation where you need to be a true triple threat to sing and dance as well as starring... I wouldn't wish that pressure on any 5 year old. So I'm not mad at them casting a slightly older actress if it means she was emotionally better prepared to handle all of that.

To be fair, stage musicals (upon which this is based, not the 90s movie) can have little to no dialogue. It is a series of songs sometimes vaguely connected by a few spoke sentences to get from one song to another. It’s why you can buy the original cast recordings of most Broadway stage musicals and know the whole story just from the songs. Stage Musicals are about the the songs. And in honor of it’s stage musical origins, it would make sense that the performances are a bit larger then life.

The larger than life performance is fine, but the pacing isn't. The pacing in a stage musical is fundamentally different from a movie format for many reasons. It's faster and mostly songs, which just doesn't work in a movie. As Alex said, everything comes at you too quickly for impactful moments to actually feel impactful. Also, a lot of the story is lost. It's like adapting a movie into a film, you have to cut and include things carefully. It just feels hollow here.

@@happychaosofthenorth as someone who played bruce (not on Broadway lmao) the swings were pretty damn cool. I think when i grow up feels like a waste of time in the movie because it’s more to ease the audience back into the show after intermission. Movies just don’t work like that. There are many other examples and thats why I believe movie musicals shouldn’t be made. Filmings of the original musical work because it’s just the musical with extra cinematography. Some things can be lost (like a assume the telly song was cut for the movie) but it is overall good. Movies should be made with the plan to male them musical, taking a whole new original angle. Or, just don’t make it a musical. Problem solved.

I think one of the biggest problems I had with this film is the relationship between Matilda and Ms. Honey. Instead of building their relationship they just focus on songs and the circus story. The cottage scene feels really out of place because Ms. Honey and Matilda barely know eachother. In this movie, even though it's not in the book, I feel like Ms. Phelps should've adopted her instead, because they were much more compatible. And at the beginning of the movie you see them already acting like bestfriends. The film did this dumb "oh she accidently knows her life story and this wasn't in the book" thing instead of focusing on the MAIN CHARACTERS relationships! Idk that just made me kind of upset I'd still rate this movie like a 7/10

Yeah, I really didn't like the whole acrobat storyline. It was really over the top, and when it was revealed that it was Miss Honey's actual backstory, which Matilda magically knew, I was rolling my eyes with how cliche and lazy it was. They could've just spent that screentime building Miss Honey and Matilda's friendship. Alternatively, if they wanted to tell the acrobat story, they could've made it a fantastical story that ends up echoing Miss Honey's backstory, which could be more serious and realistic. The story then allows Matilda to understand Miss Honey's backstory when she tells her because she can draw parallels. Or better yet maybe Matilda could be making up the story and telling the librarian as Miss Honey reveals bits of her past, and it's Matilda's way of processing difficult subjects as a child.

Some songs from the stage version got cut, and others got moved about or re-worked so that they are in slightly different contexts than they originally were, so that might be why some of them feel a bit jarring, but i heavily recommend going and watching the stage version or finding some clips of it online - you'd have a new appreciation for the choices made in the movie!

Yeah. It's tricky, because obviously it's sold as a film, and thus it's obviously gonna be compared to the older one and picked apart like this, but really, because it's an almost exact repeat of the musical (aside from some cuts for time), it's more like a spectacle for people that haven't seen the stage musical/want an alternative for it. "Musicals directly adapted to film" like Les Mis, In the Heights or The Producers have very different goals and intentions for the audience than "film musicals" like most Disney stuff (and even further removed from normal films like the original Matilda), and this means they usually have a weird feeling flow and writing compared to them.

What hits home for me with Mathilda, is that it's a real-world response to fairytales. There is this little girl, and she is abused by her parents, and a horrible headmaster, but she gets a fairy Godmother who is kind, and loving, and helps her grow. But instead of how it is in the fairytales, Ms. Honey isn't a magical, all-powerful Glinda. She's a person with her own struggles, and suffers the same abuse that Mathilda is suffering, despite being grown up. And so the audience learns that even grown-ups don't have all the answers, and that even kids can be the hero, the all-powerful magical being. And that's the draw. The CHILD is finding the bravery to help the ADULT get free from the abuse she hasn't been able to escape by herself. Suffice it to say, I don't think it's a concept that lends itself to being explored in musical form, and I'll probably not be watching the new movie.

The one thing I think the original did better was the goodbye between her and her dad and family. The original dad was scummy and abrasive but it felt like although he didnt get his daughter he did want her to be a part of the family or at least be 'normal' like them. So when they went their separate ways, you could at least get the feeling that he does love her and accepts that while he doesn't understand her, she deserved to be with those who do. The new one was straight up a jerk through & through, who made it clear he didnt enjoy having her around which made me wonder why he and his wife even kept her instead of putting her up for adoption or something, the ending goodbyes between them is a bit more jarring because he suddenly shows affection (what ever that was) where up to that point, there really was none.

Matilda in the musical used reading as an escape from her traumatizing life, which makes the line “reading is like a holiday in my head” make a lot more sense. Also, the creator showed more to the fact that Matilda was traumatized when she sang a song about disassociating while getting yelled at by miss Trenchbull. Traumatized people, like Matilda, sometimes will unwilling disassociate when something bad is happening to them, because it's your brain's way of protecting you from experiencing another traumatizing event. So I think the creator wanted us to know her love for books was because she was trying to escape reality.

Yes! and I think THAT is what this movie-musical did better than the 1996 movie (and perhaps the book but, its been a while since I've read it). I greatly appreciated how they portrayed her disassociating, because I did the EXACT same thing. It made me feel that connection to Matilda that the book and the 1996 movie did. It happens again when her father yells at her and she makes up a story where a father is rescuing her from the abuse and hurt being done to her. I did the exact same thing when I was younger.. watching that scene hurt. The connection with this character ended there though. Over all, I still think the 1996 movie told the full story better. Like the story in this movie-musical was too focused on Ms. Honey and HER growth as a character; all the character development Matilda got in the books and 1996 movie was given to miss Honey in this musical. Yes we see more of Matilda's dissociation and its shown very accurately, but the rest of her character isn't given the same kind of treatment. The story is supposed to be about Matilda.

As a matter of fact, I think that the main character in the Broadway musical should be Ms. Honey since she gets more development than Matilda. I think it focused more on her ability to stand up to her own bully Edit: just thought I should add I haven’t actually seen the musical but I have been a big fan of the track for years and it is the impression I got by just listening to the songs.

As a big fan of the stage musical- the reason why Matilda is telling the stories rather than sitting and reading them- is because the directors realised that watching someone on stage reading a book would not be the most visually interesting and best use of the medium of theatre. In the show Matilda goes to a physical library to see Mrs Phelps where she comes up with her story, and you know from the context that she already has a close relationship with the library and books.

I think the flipped dynamic between Matilda and Ms Honey in the musical, where Ms Honey is the one to learn a moral lesson from Matilda, is more impactful. It makes sense for a grown woman who has experienced a lifetime worth of mistreatment to learn a lesson from a child whose idealism hasn't been worn away yet. Children intuitively have very strong senses of what is and isn't fair. They often know the world's not fair, it's just that they haven't yet stopped believing that it can be. The song, "When I Grow Up" perfectly encapsulates this. All the children dream of perfect futures, although they'll still have to "fight the creatures that you have to fight beneath the bed". As Ms Honey recites those lyrics, she's backed by Matilda, a child who has always known that life isn't fair, singing of one's responsibility to do what's right, with the former finally taking on the responsibility of a grown up as one to fight for their own fair treatment, in her case by her aunt.

I think the movie and plot being rushed and loosing part of the whole story is due to the movie being just about 2 hours, while the stage production is longer giving a bit more space for the story and in between songs. But since the movie had to cram all characters and songs in and still be a watchable length they had to sacrifice a lot, leaving at times only the bare bones of the story left. “Revolting Children” is not supposed to prove Trunchbull right, it’s supposed to show them taking back their free will and minds, the ability to think and stand up for themselves. They are finally able to just BE children and be a bit naughty or act out without fear of literal torture in retribution. This is kind of lost with how it’s performed in the movie

I think a lot of people are setting themselves up for failure when they go into this movie with the intention of comparing it to the Danny DeVito/Mara Wilson version, because they should be viewed as entirely different entities of an original story. The musical originally opened in London before transferring to Broadway, so I think it feels more suited to British audiences generally (i.e the jokes, direction etc). Whereas the 1996 version is much more American and it reflects that. Both adaptions take liberties and different story directions from the books and as a result create very separate pieces. As a musical theatre fan, the musical version is an absolute masterclass. The score and lyrics are truly brilliant and they represent the innocence of youth and the harsh reality of adulthood beautifully. I think the musical also has a much more mature and darker tone, which is fitting for Roald Dahl's preference with story telling. The creator didn't take any influence from the 1996 version, which is why they're so different and should be treated as such. I know many other fans who believe that the musical version is more mature and dark compared the og movie, as there are many creative choices which strive to resonate with both young and old audiences. 'When I Grow Up' is a brilliant example of that, as it represents the innocent view of adulthood that children have, giving younger audiences a chance to feel connected and understood with the characters, while older audiences feel nostalgic and sentimental as they reflect on their own childhood and the experience they had as they became adults. Mara Wilson's Matilda is much more light hearted and 'warm' if that makes sense. It's still a brilliant movie and still has great acclaim, I equally love both versions and I think that's how they should remain. But the two can't be compared at all, they both deserve to be viewed as standalone equals that tell the same story but in unique and different ways. I'd very much recommend trying to listen to the musical's score more, especially with the subtitles/lyrics on as you'll truly begin to see the mastery of the storytelling. That's why there are so many songs, as the weave the story between the dialogue and action beautifully. I think watching clips or slime tutorials (bootlegs of the musical) would provide a better understanding of the show's storytelling.

I agree, and think that goes back to the songs. Like he said, there were so many that things like character and plot development had to be super rushed. My issue is that you totally CAN have character and plot development with lots of songs (my favorite stage musical is Les Miserables, for crying out loud, which is 100% singing). You just need to incorporate those things into the songs. In Matilda though each song focused on a single point and sang about it, so everything was on hold, or at least slowed down significantly, during the song.

She also seems angrier and, even if she is smart, she translates a lot of what she hears from adults into her stories and views of the world, almost like rather than Matilda "being" mature/an adult, she is just mimicking them in order to survived this world. Also, the fact that her powers are more related to rage and being neglected, to the point they only show up when she is in distress, and not when she is having fun.

In comparison to Miss Honey who sat back and took all of her abuse and trauma and never spoke up, Matilda fights back and she doesn’t let things go. It’s who Miss Honey wished she would have been. I do think their relationship could’ve been fleshed out a bit more in this movie but that contrast actually builds a really good foundation.

The absolute best part of the original Matilda movie was something I think all of you have heard about; During filming, Mara Wilson's (Matilda) mother was in the hospital, dying. During this time, Danny Devito took care of her, acting as a father figure to her throughout filming. When they wrapped the movie, Mara's mother was near to death. Danny Devito was able to get a copy of the movie created in time for her to watch it before passing. It was that level of care - not only for the source material but for the people involved - that made the movie such a success. There was a desire to put something beautiful out into the world that just seems missing from this new version. This new Matilda seems more intent on making something that lives up to the nostalgia needlessly. 1996 Matilda still holds up perfectly well. These remakes did not need to happen.

I just saw the movie yesterday. As someone who watched the original movie and the musical West End Production. I found the cinematic musical enjoyable. There were parts that I liked, and some parts that I didn't which was just moments when they cut or changed the songs, or awkward out of nowhere musical numbers. Like Miracle. I freaking love that song. And I'm a bit upset that they made 'babies' sing it and cutting out some of my favourite lines. Not to mention missing the message of the song Miracle. In the stage production, Miracle starts with kids at a birthday party. Each bratty, stubborn and full of themselves, saying how their parents call them miracles. Each with a concerning behaviour, one bragging about being a soldier when they've older so they can shoot people in the face and then a girl who wants to be a ballerina refuses to put the work in it, especially give up cake before screaming for more cake. Then you have the parents not seeing the flaws, and anyone or anything that says otherwise is not the fault of the child but the environment. (a particular line about a kids school report where the parents decide to change schools because they think the teachers are blind to their miracle of a child) Then you have the balloon guy who was hired for the party, surrounded by these annoying hyperactive children. Questioning that if every child was miraculous then wouldn't that make them un-miraculous? This being important as for when Matilda's part comes in, it draws a deep comparison. The only child not called a Miracle is unironically the most miraculous. The cinematic follows the song kinda accurately, I guess. They cut out Matilda's mum whole solo and subsequence c plot which I can understand because that part wasn't my favourite and ruined the song for me. But as a result they cut out the reason for their disdain for Matilda and one of the best jokes. Speaking of cutting out things. They cut out Matilda's older brother and Redalfo(?) (a Musical exclusive character). Which I can understand as Matilda's brother has next to no lines in the musical. The most he ever said was 'Tele' when he was singing 'Tele' with his dear old dad after intermission. Probably a waste of money to have him in but it removes the comparison of how Matilda's parents treats her brother compared to herself. Redalfo I can understand because they completely cut out Matilda's mum c plot which Redalfo was a part of. I felt like the School song could've been started off better. In the stage production you had new students singing Miracle, shyly singing that their parents think they're miracles. Before being brutely taken down by the students who have been beaten down by reality. But I'm glad they kept the alphabet representation :). The Bruce song was definitely fun. I remembered being board in West End during that song but the cinematic release really hyped it up in a fun way. Love 'When I grow up', it was very cute. Not as grand as the stage production in terms of vocal performances but I loved the visuals. Made me warm inside seeing the kids imagine having fun thinking what it would be like to be a adult where they can do whatever they wanted. Miss Trunchbull's Throw a Hammer song was fun, I love that they kept the students singing through the screen from the stage production. That was one of my favourite parts from the stage production. I strangely enough loved Miss Phelps the librarian in the cinematic release as I didn't really cared for her in the stage production. She was a fun loving character. They blew Revolting Children out of the park. They changed it a bit (not much but to a point that I prefer the stage production version a bit more) but I love the performance and love how they kept the choreography. I had a massive grin on my face the whole time. The new cinematic song 'Hold Your Hand' or whatever was a nice addition. I understand that they needed a proper ending song compared to the stage production where they ended with 'When I Grow Up Reprise'. So it did its job. Matilda's actress. I don't know if they had one of the leads from West End to play Matilda or someone new but her eyes man. They stare into my soul. And I can't exactly hate her dead stare as I feel that people can relate to her. Those who have trouble expressing themselves facially, and have to do so with either words or actions. So while it unnerved me a little, I like it. The Magnus chain monster thing was cool too. Not as traumatising as the original movie but still super cool. I definitely saw where the budget went for this movie. Now Miss Trunchbull herself, I can't believe that's Nanny McPhee. Like, I can kinda see it. Two hardy women in their own right, one a Olympic medalist the other a British War Soldier. Both don't like unruly, chaotic, rebellious children. Both uses harsh methods of punishment to teach their lessons. The only difference is that Nanny McPhee has good intentions and good lessons to teach while Miss Trunchbull is just a Tyrant. Miss Hunny was lovely, I love the rep and it didn't feel out of place. Especially since anyone can be a Miss Hunny, no matter their race or skin colour. And on a final note. Justice for the underrated song 'Tele'.

Yeah the transition to School Song felt off, like they were just being jumped by older students for no reason. Makes more sense in the original musical that they’re essentially warning the new students. It doesn’t come off like that at all in the cinematic adaptation.

The musical is its own adaptation of the book, it’s a very good stage show and the film is a very good adaptation of that show. Think of the phantom of the opera for example: the 1925 film is an adaptation of the 1911 book, as is the stage show. They’re two separate pieces of work with the same source material. The 2004 film is a direct adaptation of the stage show, we don’t see it as a remake of the original. It’s the same with Matilda. The new film is a direct adaptation of the stage show, which is adapted from the book, not the 90s film. Same source material, separate films.

One part of this movie that wasn’t resolved was that the dad cheats gangsters outta a car and they have to flea the country to avoid being killed, like it probably isn’t hard to figure out that Maltilda is their daughter, so the parents giving her away kinda feels a bit sinster. But in the original movie, it’s cops the family are running from. And by legally freeing Matilda it shows the family has at least some kindness in their hearts. Also there’s the mum is actually a character in the 90s movie. She knows she cannot understand her daughter, she knows that they are completely different people But she still picks up that pen knowing she’s giving her daughter a better life

She is a clever little rascal there, I hoped they would keep this part of her character too.

​@@rainbabypersonally I think the older version has some pretty mature moments. The more fun or magical moments definitely appeal to kids but the family dynamics and some of the character nuances I feel don't sink in quite as much until you're older (like the reasons that Trunchbull targets Matilda I think can be lost on some kids). But a lot of the elements of the new one I think are way too OTT or depart too much from a realistic story to land with an adult audience. Like the whole element of Matilda knowing Miss Honey's back story is a very odd detour to take. Roald Dahl books often don't worry themselves with realism and Broadway productions are by their nature more OTT, and that's completely fine. I enjoy Dahl's books and I enjoy Broadway musicals. But movies are a totally different medium, and honestly I think trying to stick too close to the original is a pitfall a lot of film adaptations of musicals fall into. What works on a stage is probably not going to work in a movie. But also the original film I think also resonated with a lot of children (and adults) who were abused growing up, and with the way they went with the new one, they were never going to capture that same feeling. And I think that it had that going against it, because the comparison was always going to be inevitable even if the new movie was trying to be its own thing seperate from the origin film.

When I Grow Up isn’t unnecessary. It’s sung immediately after Bruce is put into the Chokey. These kids are literally living in a hell and the song is about the essentially feeling like this is just normal and that all these problems will go away when they’re adults. And then Miss Honey sings, and we realize everyone is always waiting for that magical time when we know everything and our problems resolve themselves, but that time doesn’t come unless we do something.

The Netflix one is easily the more full production and a good musical film, since it's an adaptation of a good musical... but the storytelling in the 90s adaptation is too superior to just ignore.

I think the biggest issue with the musical is that you're right. When you get to it, it loses all sense of the original book and the movie. Miss Honey's character was barely developed and she's a critical part. Michael (her brother) was cut entirely when I think he really showed that Matilda'a parents had the CAPABILITY to care for a kid, but just not HER. I think you said it best when you said that it's a good movie musical, it's just not a good Matilda movie. I always related to Matilda when I was a kid because of my somewhat abusive parent, and having connections to some of my own teachers who considered me like their own. I'm so disappointed that this is what came out of it because it is so far from what the original movie is, and what I believe was Roald Dahl's intentions in his book.

The trouble is, though, the musical is relying on memory from the movie for a lot of it's emotional weight. I love musicals, but I didn't like this one. The fear of the choky is wasted by never showing anyone inside it, just external reactions (which can only go so far). Ms. Honey's fear of Trunchbull feels weaker since it's based on emotional jibes and the childhood incident with the cellar, and it cripples her character since she has less reason to not report Trunchbull. And the message of the story feels disjointed. Is it about revenge vs justice? We never see negative consequences for revenge so no. Is it about found family? We don't spend much time seeing a family relationship grow between Ms. Honey and Matilda, so no. Is it about children having the right to be bratty sometimes? Quite possibly given that it has like 3 songs dedicated to that idea.
