Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 4/5 --
DeVito gleefully preserves Dahl's dark comic tone, which should delight both kids and parents.
Capital Times (Madison, WI)
...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...
Variety
Rating: 2.5/4 --
The adult performers fare considerably better than the young lead in this faithful adaptation of the Roald Dahl classic.

Offbeat fantasy gem, but too dark for young kids.

...An ideal rental for the legions of kids... -- Rating: B+
Entertainment Weekly
...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...
Chicago Sun-Times
Rating: 4/5 --
Slick kids movie that preserves Roald Dahl's gleeful nastiness.
San Francisco Examiner
