Roald Dahl's Matilda the Musical [Blu-ray]

Product Information

On meeting her inspirational teacher, Miss Honey (Lashana Lynch), Matilda is encouraged and begins conjuring her own fantastical tales. Excited to attend Crunchem Hall, Matilda is surprised to find the school is an ominous and oppressive place led by the huge and villainous Miss Trunchbull (Emma Thompson). Matthew Warchus’s compelling comedy film, Roald Dahl’s Matilda the Musical, made its anticipated debut on the big screen on December 25th, 2022.

The script that Dennis Kelly writes simply shines with mastery to deliver us a movie that completely fills our emotions and sensations. It is a film that enchants from the beginning, but that does not hesitate to take us into darkness, authentically capturing that purest essence of the novel and for that the visual spectacle is totally marvelous that makes us be glued to the screen and simply enter in the musical and lyrical harmony of Tim Minchin that puts the most recent Netflix premiere at our feet. Roald Dahl’s Matilda the Musical is an inspirational musical tale of an extraordinary girl who discovers her superpower and summons the remarkable courage, against all odds, to help others change their stories, whilst also taking charge of her own destiny. Standing up for what’s right, she’s met with miraculous results. That good performance of all of the above mentioned makes us forget about the weak points that the film may have. The perfect compensation so that we end up more than satisfied with what we are seeing. But, with the help of her kindly teacher Miss Honey (Lashana Lynch), Matilda discovers her special superpowers. Unstoppable at last, she is determined to make a stand for justice and teach Miss Trunchbull (Emma Thompson) a lesson she’ll never forget.As well as kind Miss Honey, the bright lights among the meanness are story-loving librarian, Mrs. Phelps (Sindhu Vee), and Matilda’s newfound school friends. Filled with an overwhelming sense of justice, Matilda dares to take a stand for what is right and teach Trunchbull a lesson she won’t forget.

Undoubtedly the greatest charm that we find is seeing Alisha Weir be the skin of Matilda; The acting charisma with which the little actress dazzles on the screen makes us excited about a promising one and that is that she comes face to face with all the poise of an Emma Thompson and both only make the screen shine with magic when we have them sharing the scene. Matilda is determined that they should atone for their selfishness and conjures up small acts of rebellion and revenge but when she joins Crunchem Hall school she realises she also has to contend with the ominous bully, headmistress Miss Trunchbull. I cannot leave aside the correct work that the rest of the children's cast does and seeing Lashana Lynch sing is priceless, in the same way I cannot leave aside the entertaining step of Andrea Riseborough and Stephen Graham as Matilda's parents.Selected items are only available for delivery via the Royal Mail 48® service and other items are available for delivery using this service for a charge.
