Review

Entertainment Weekly, 12/20/1996, p.84, "...An ideal rental for the legions of kids..." -- Rating: B+

Chicago Sun-Times, 08/02/1996, p.33, "...Darkly comic....MATILDA doesn't condescend to children, it doesn't sentimentalize, and as a result it feels heartfelt and sincere. It's funny too..."

Variety, 08/05/1996, "...A delightfully twisted fairy tale that artfully juggles broad tom-foolery and sly drollery, along with a generous serving of sight gags enhanced by special effects..."
