What is up bros welcome to...
Oh I messed up the...
I'm Caleb.
You got the script right in front of your damn face.
I know shut up!
I'm Caleb.
And I'm the one that doesn't mess up, Jonathan.
Screw you!
We'll see how you do with this reading with Rose segment, asshole.
Bet.
I'll bet you I get 100%.
We are a couple of bros on a mission to give you guys the most detailed movie reviews out there with as little bias as possible.
Welcome to the all bros.
This week on a podcast in 4k spotlight we have one movie that's getting released and that's it.
Nothing too newsworthy this week or at least nothing that caught our attention.
So yeah, so we'll be discussing that 4k release and then get straight into this week's headliner where we will be breaking down Netflix's original Matilda the musical.
So with that, let's say we get into this.
Let's do it.
Hey guys, I'm Crash, host of the podcast Crash & Tez's movie selling.
On our show, me and my co-host pick a new movie each week and rate each movie on a few categories that we think are important to making a great movie.
After we rate the movie, it gets a final rating and that lands it somewhere on our seller scale where it will get labeled as either a well premium or a top show film.
Catch us on platforms like Spotify, Google, Amazon Music and more.
And don't forget to follow us on social media.
On Instagram as Crash & Tez's movie seller, it's Crash the letter N Tez movie seller with underscores in between each word and on Facebook Crash and Tez movie seller.
Where you as a listener can suggest movies for us to rate and also give us some constructive criticism to make the show more entertaining.
Overall, don't forget to follow or subscribe and rate and review us and get ready for an entertaining to show with us.
See you guys then.
My constructive criticism would be to release an episode once in a while.
Vic.
Damn.
You've been properly roasted. It's been a while. I think it's.
I think it's been a while since we've done his promo.
I think it has. Honestly, I thought you took it out just because he doesn't post new episodes.
Yeah.
But I thought I stopped like I didn't stop like it just left my mind for a little while to like do his.
And but then we we talked on Saturday, Saturday or Sunday.
And yeah, just kind of like spark that in my imagination or my my brain.
And I was like, oh, I haven't done your promo in a while.
So just doing it for for good time's sake. Yeah.
Anyway, getting into four case spotlight this week, we have one new release that Rose is going to tell us all about.
Yeah. And I will say that it's frickin bullshit that Universal isn't releasing this on four.
It's just being released on Blu Ray. But Violent Night is coming out.
If you guys want to hear our thoughts on that, go check out our episode, which was how long ago was that?
It was a few weeks ago. OK. It's not that far back, though. OK.
But yeah, so Violent Night comes out.
Apparently, I don't know what it is with Walmart, but they are like sucking with like putting out Universal movies early because they did the same thing with this movie that they did with Halloween ends.
They put like I saw a tick tock of a guy's like, oh, yeah, out like two weeks early grabbing it.
I'm like, there's no frickin way that that actually scans in the register.
But no, lo and behold, it does. Is that what happened with this one?
Yeah. Yeah. Same same shit. What the hell?
I don't know what's happening with Walmart and doing this with Universal titles because I've only seen it with Halloween ends and Violent Night, both Universal titles.
So I don't get it. It's either Walmart or Universal needs to get their shit together.
Yeah, seriously, though. But.
Oh, well, I don't know what else to say besides that.
I mean, I'm not going to pick this up like release week.
One, I mean, I'm not going to be in Utah when this comes out and be kind of kind of weird to pick it up and not not saying it'd be weird to pick it up in another state.
But I don't know if I can really like fit it in my backpack to get.
I really don't know where I'm going with this, but I guess I can always pick it up here, I guess, if you really want it that bad.
No, I'll wait till it goes on sale. I'll wait till it goes on sale.
But I guess like this is like a fun prelude into next week because it will actually be a in-person recording session for me and Caleb.
So that's going to be fun. Hell, yes.
This is going to be dope. Yeah.
That was a dumb prelude into that. But you know what? Whatever. We're going to stick to it.
So, yeah, violent night. If you guys haven't seen it, definitely recommend you guys check it out and you can buy it on Blu-ray this Tuesday.
Yeah. So actually, when this episode releases, you'll actually be on your way here.
Yeah, that's going to be sick. Freaking pump, dude. Me too.
It's incredible how different... Oh my God. Why am I effing up so much this episode?
Looking back at the flights and times and how much of a delay... Not delay, but...
F, what is it called when you land in one state in order to be put onto another plane so you can actually go to the destination that you're going to?
Like a layover? Layover, thank you. That's the word.
It's amazing looking at what the layovers are for certain flights because I think the flight there, it's altogether six hours.
But then, freaking other ones that I saw that were around the same time were upwards of ten hours. I'm like, what the hell?
Screw that layover. Dude, layovers are a bitch. They are. Or they can be.
Yeah, like goddamn. Yeah, it's freaking ridiculous.
Yeah. But anyway, that's all I got to say.
Well, cool. Then I guess with that, we can jump straight into this week's breakdown, which is going to be... This is one I'm actually really excited to talk about.
I'm very excited for this because... It's not very often that these come around, at least for us, because we watch a bunch of movies on our own, not for the show.
And we typically have very similar opinions on a movie. And I can tell when... I knew you were going to love this movie.
I can always tell when you're going to enjoy a movie. I feel like I can pick those out really, really good where I'm like, oh yeah, this is... I don't like this movie, but Rose would love it.
And I'm not saying I didn't like this movie. I actually enjoyed this movie. But not as much as Rose. And I feel like I'm going to have some harsher opinions on it than he does.
So this is going to be really fun. So anyway, let's get straight into this freaking breakdown.
All right. Like I said, we will be breaking down Netflix's original Matilda the musical.
So if you are new to our breakdown system, we have split movies into eight different categories that we individually score to come to a final All Bros letter grade.
The eight categories that we score are story, writing, acting, character development, effects, music, costumes, and then we give it our own personal score at the very end.
All of those numbers get magically added up and spit through our algorithm and give us a letter grade to compare this movie to others of a similar grade.
It also gives us a percentage. So we have like an official like ranking, but that doesn't really matter as much as the overall score.
The ranking is more for us than anything. True.
Yeah. So with that, if you have not seen Matilda the musical, if you've seen the first Matilda, you're probably going to have a decent idea of what happens in this one.
Or if you've read the book, too. See, I don't think I ever read the book, so I don't know which one is more faith. I mean, I know the book's not a musical, but I don't know which one is more faithful to the book.
I feel like this one would be more faithful because it did have that like fairy tale book feel to it.
Yeah. And the original is definitely more based in reality.
Yeah. So I think this is like I said, I haven't read the book either.
But I did. I jumped on Wikipedia real quick and read the synopsis for the book.
And it did seem to wonder. Sorry. No, what was. So in the book, does she have a brother or no?
That's what Braille was trying to figure out. So in the first in the original, she had a brother.
Yeah. I couldn't tell you for the life of me if she had a brother in the in the book.
Yeah, that was like bugging me because I went like when the movie first started, I'm like, wait, she doesn't have a brother in this version.
I mean, as the movie went on, I didn't care. But that kind of threw me through a loop. I'm like, whoa, it's only her. OK.
OK. I'm looking it up. Oh, she does.
Matilda does have a brother in the book. However, he's however he's Matilda's older brother.
OK, so just like the just like the original. Yeah.
So I guess if you're going for how faithful, it seems like the 1996 version might be a little bit more faithful.
I wonder why then when they wrote the musical, they decided to make her an only child.
Probably easier to write. Yeah.
I mean, yeah, because I don't really know where you would put her brother into the musical version of it.
All right. I can accept it.
Like you say, it took me like it like it took me back a little bit at first, but then like once I got used to it, didn't change at all how I felt about the movie.
Yeah, I mean, it's a minor gripe. We're not going to dock it any for not including a character because it's
I think with the story that they were telling, especially the opening where the the Matilda's mother was just like, oh, great.
I'm pregnant. Yeah. Having such that like disdain towards kids, it would make sense that she would only have one.
Yeah. So, I mean, like like we said, it tracks.
Real quick, though, I almost forgot we did have a kind of a response.
So we posted a question of the week.
We asked what other children's movies would make for good musicals.
We didn't get an answer to that, but we did get a response to that video.
OK, if that makes sense, it does.
So this response is from Jason Lampe, who you guys wouldn't know if you've listened to our previous episodes, he does the mixed media for his podcast.
So if you've heard that promo before, but he just made a more of a response towards this movie.
OK. And so he said that he really enjoyed the movie, but he felt like some of the songs were being played and fast forward, not enough time to process each joke.
Which I absolutely agree.
I would disagree, but.
I guess it's going to be an interesting episode.
This really is.
OK, so anyway, thank you, Jason, for answering our question of the week.
If you want to answer a question of the week, be sure to be following us on Instagram and TikTok.
Those are the two places that you can respond.
OK, so the plot of Matilda, the musical.
Here we go. Yeah, spoilers past this point.
Yes.
In a hospital, while other parents adore their newborn children, Mrs. Wormwood is distraught to learn she is pregnant and in labor to her husband, Mr.
Wormwood's confusion.
She gives birth to a girl, Matilda, despite her parents constant disdain.
Matilda becomes a sweet child who loves reading and visits the librarian, Miss Phelps daily upon discovering that Matilda has not been properly schooled.
Teacher Miss Jennifer Honey and an inspector visit the house to suggest Matilda be sent to crunch them all angry at the fine.
Mr. Wormwood warns the severe headmistress, Miss Agatha Trunchbull, about Matilda.
Matilda retaliates and tricks him into dyeing his hair green.
I wouldn't say trick like she just was more of a prank.
Yeah, she she doesn't trick him into it.
Yeah, OK, whatever.
On her way to school, Matilda tells Mrs. Phelps her story about an escapologist who falls in love with and marries an acrobat.
Arriving at school, Matilda and fellow new student Lavender are warned about the terrible way students are treated there.
In class, Matilda solves a complex math equation on the board and confesses that she loves reading most.
Honey asked Trunchbull to move Matilda to a more advanced class, but Trunchbull refuses to let Matilda be an exception to the rules.
At home, when Matilda criticizes her father, he rips her library book apart and sends her to her room so she glues his hat to his head.
The next day, Matilda leads the students in protecting classmate Nigel from wrongful punishment, but Trunchbull instead aims her anger towards Amanda Thripp, a pigtailed girl, and throws her over the fence.
OK, with this, can we at least agree that that scene is so much more worse in this version than it is in the original?
I will give you that.
I will absolutely give you that.
I was like, God damn.
And this is going to tie into effects?
It looked really freaking good.
Because like in the original, she looks like, not too stiff, but you can definitely tell the way that they filmed it, she's really not moving that much.
In this one, oh my God, she was like a freaking rag doll when she first, oh my God, it was, I had my mouth freaking open during this scene.
Like, jeez Louise.
I would be genuinely shocked if they did that 100% CGI.
I would too.
Like, obviously they're not going to use a real kid.
Like, that just kind of goes without saying.
What I'm pretty sure they did, and I would love to see if this is true, because the motion, it did feel very rag doll.
So I'm wondering if they did use a dummy and then just kind of CGI'd like the flesh tones.
Because you can like dress the dummy up like that girl.
Like, easy. That's cake.
Yeah.
So it's just, that's the part I'm like, because that looked way too freaking real for it to be 100% fake.
Yeah, dude, seriously though.
Like straight up.
Looks so freaking good. Like, holy shit.
Yeah, it was, oh man.
The way the Trenchwell reacts, she's like, yeah, that's far. I'm like, jeez Louise lady.
Yeah, and then she's just like, oh yeah, go check if the kid's still alive.
I, yeah, I freaking like lost it.
I will say the different punishments were, I kind of went back and forth on how I felt about the punishments.
Like which one I preferred.
Yeah.
With the 1996 movie and then this one.
The tossing the pigtail girl, this one wins by a freaking mile.
Which is probably as far as she went.
Yeah, the cake eating one, I'd have to give that to the original.
I'm still at in between on that one.
I think it just had something to do with the music.
It was just, I don't think they sold how like just wrecked this kid was after it.
And it's just, eh.
That like that was my only issue.
It's just that they didn't sell me on like the weight of that as much as they did in the 1996 version.
Where it just felt like you were freaking full.
Like watching him, you're just like you're about to be sick to your stomach.
I didn't quite feel that way with this one.
Oh, and then what was the other?
The ear stretching was weird.
Yeah, like, okay, I'm very interested what, which did you feel was, which Chokey was worse, the 1996 version or this one?
Oh, I'd have to get hold on.
I want to pull up the original first just so I have like a clear.
I know for me, I'm actually honestly leaning more towards the 96 because this one, I don't even think we really got to until like this kind of getting ahead until like
the Trunchbull like showcases like how she's been busy and she has all of these Chokey's made.
We never actually, at least from what I remember, got to see until Matilda blows it up the inside of the original Chokey.
No, we see the original.
They like they have a GIF of it, the original.
They do.
For some reason, I felt like that Chokey was mobile.
Or I thought it was like in the original.
Yeah, no, wasn't it?
I thought it was wasn't in like the actual Trunchbull's office like it wasn't like out in the woods like in.
No, it was like in one of the towers of the school.
It looks like.
Oh, yeah.
But you do see the inside of it.
It's just like a big wooden door with these giant frickin nails.
For some reason, I don't know.
I feel like that one was done better, was more intimidating than I will give you that for sure.
I mean, though, when she showcases like how she's been busy with like there's like a Chokey for every single kid.
I was like, OK, Jesus, lady.
Yeah, that was frickin nuts.
Yeah, I really like that.
But yeah, in terms of like the original Chokey, I would give that to the original or the 1996 film as well.
Yeah.
OK, so during the students lunch, Trunchbull falsely accuses Matilda of stealing a slice of her private chocolate cake.
But Bruce Bogtrotter accidentally reveals his involvement.
OK, I have to point out because so I watched this with Christina and frickin I hate that she she pointed this out.
The fact that when like the whole like gas bubble or whatever is like floating over and it like pops on the Trunchbull and you see her frickin like just like tasting.
She's like the way that Christina reacts, she's like the fuzz.
She's she's literally tasting a fart, not a fart bubble, but like a burp bubble.
She's like getting turned on by that shit.
Yeah, it was a bit much like that was very weird to watch.
Oh, my God. Yeah.
Yeah, I'm like, OK.
Yeah, I don't know what else to say to that.
But yeah, just the reaction that Christina had the fact she said I think she got turned on by that.
I'm like, OK, thank you for putting that into my head.
But anyway, say a Bruce Bogtrotter accidentally reveals his involvement.
She forces him to eat the entire cake, saying he will be forgiven if he man if he manages it.
Bruce's success thrills Matilda, honey and the students, but infuriates Trunchbull and she condemns him to the chokie regardless.
Matilda unsuccessfully attempts to defend Bruce and after school, the children deliberate on their potential adulthoods.
Matilda returns to Mrs. Phelps and continues her story.
The now pregnant acrobat is forced to perform a dangerous stunt by by her stepsister.
She is horribly injured and dies after giving birth to a daughter.
The escapologist forgives the stepsister and asks her to help him raise his daughter.
The stepsister blames the daughter for her stepsister's death and secretly terrorizes her.
At home, Mr. Wormwood locks Matilda in her room for criticizing his dishonest business practices.
She ends her story. When the escapologist discovers his daughter is mistreated, he never returns from confronting the stepsister.
The next day, Trunchbull forces the children through challenging exercises to crush their rebelliousness.
Lavender slips her pet new Isaac into her drinking water and Matilda furiously uses her newly discovered telekineticity.
Her newly discovered telekinesis to embarrass Trunchbull.
Honey invites Matilda to her cottage where Matilda learns that the escapologist and the acrobat were Honey's parents and the stepsister is Trunchbull.
Despite Honey's warnings against getting in Trunchbull's way, Matilda uses her powers to destroy the Chokey.
At home, Matilda discovers that her father cheated the mafia and the family must flee to Spain.
Dismayed, Matilda cries in her room about never seeing her friends again.
When the children return to school, Trunchbull forces them to spell words correctly or to be locked in a new Chokey.
She has Lavender spell a made-up word, tricking the other children into rebelliously spelling words incorrectly on purpose so that she can lock them all into Chokeys.
Matilda uses her telekinesis to pretend to be the vengeful ghost of Honey's father, destroying the Chokeys and throwing Trunchbull out of the school.
Honey tells her never to return and takes back the keys to her father's house.
After Trunchbull runs away, the students openly revolt and destroy Trunchbull's statue.
Mr. and Mrs. Wormwood come to take Matilda to Spain, but Honey pleads with them to let Matilda stay with her.
They reluctantly agree to let her adopt Matilda, who uses her powers to unglue her father's hat.
I will say the original does this scene better just because they actually sign adoption papers, whereas in this one they're just like, okay, well, you can just stay with her. That's cool.
That's something I had a hard time with, like accepting, but it was just, there was also a little bit of like, okay, you gotta think musical, fair.
Yeah. I will say that I likened this, they kind of like swapped the parents' reaction in these two versions, because in the first one, sorry, the original,
it's definitely, I feel like the mother who has an intimate moment with Matilda saying, you're the only daughter I ever had, yada, yada, yada.
Whereas in this one, the mother kind of like, she's sad, well, actually, was she even sad to see Matilda stay?
Probably not.
Yeah, I didn't see, but she actually does, you can tell, have an intimate moment with her father.
He actually asked, well, do you want to stay here with her? He actually wants to get her opinion, and just, I don't know, I like that it flipped in this one.
Instead of the mother, it was the father this time.
Yeah, I like that too.
It did feel too, what I think they did very well, that Matilda wasn't like, she was like, she was enthusiastic about this, the adoption discussion.
Yeah.
But there was like some hesitation in her voice about it, where she's, or maybe like a sadness, like a bittersweet, like, okay, like, fricking finally, someone that actually like enjoys me, like, likes having me around.
Exactly.
She uses her powers to unglue her father's hat. With Honey as the new headmistress, Crunchum Hall is renamed the Big Friendly School.
They could have, couldn't have come up with a better name.
Yeah, that needed something else.
That's so boring. Crunchum Hall sounds, even though it's a horrible school, it sounds so much cooler than that.
And the students have renamed it, like, after her parents or something.
Yeah.
Not Matilda's, Miss Honey's.
Yeah.
Like something that has escapologist in it.
I wouldn't even go that far. Like, I'd say, like, if their last name was Honey, like just something like a honey pun.
The honey pot?
Maybe that's a little too much.
I don't know, like a Beehive School, Honeycomb.
There you go.
Like Honeycomb Academy.
I like that. Okay. I like that.
So the students help build a new playground. Mrs. Phelps is overjoyed that Matilda's true story has a happy ending and that she and Honey live happily together.
The end.
Good ending.
Yeah.
Like really, really solid ending.
Maybe a tad abrupt.
But nothing too bad.
Like if I was going to dock for that, it'd be maybe a point. Maybe not even a full point. It'd be like half a point.
But just kind of getting into the whole story.
I don't know about you. I felt like this kind of had a bit of a slow start.
And then like, start like, gained a really solid momentum.
But it started off kind of slow for me.
I can agree with that.
I will admit, for some reason, I was kind of like taken back by, because I'd never seen like anything of Matilda the musical.
I had no musical numbers, anything. So like, I don't know, the opening number like took me a little back, like just of how like they played it out.
I mean, it was, it was awesome. It was great. But I don't know, comparing like the opening to, and I'm trying not to compare this to the original just because they are so different with this being a musical and that just being, you know, like a take on the book.
But I feel that one, like you just automatically jump right into Matilda story. Whereas with this one, like, I don't know, like you're like, you have like all these other kids and everything.
And I'm just like, I don't really, I'm not saying I'm a horrible person and don't care about these other kids. But like, can we just get to Matilda story?
Yeah. So that num, that musical number, like I said, kind of an issue felt like a really long song.
Kind of felt like a longer song and I'm just, eh, whatever about it. So I felt like that really slowed the pacing down. But like once it got past that and skipped to like Matilda, it was really good.
Yeah. Okay. So I think we can both actually agree with that.
And then the other song that I like found myself not giving a shit about was the kids reflecting on what they wanted to be when they grew up.
I actually started tearing up a little bit during that song.
Name the purpose of that song. That didn't advance the plot whatsoever.
I feel that the per, it's like them just being like, okay, you know what? I'm like, I'm just done with being a kid because, you know, I'm getting treated like shit at my school.
My, I'm assuming that their parents just won't listen to them when they tell them what's happening at school. They're just like, ah, it's a kid's imagination.
And so they're just like, okay, well then does it really even get any better for me as a kid? I just want to be a grownup already.
It felt like a time waster.
I disagree. I mean, I don't know. For me, it's just a really good song.
The way that I view this is if you didn't have those two musical numbers that takes away from the time of the quote unquote play a decent amount.
It's like instead of being two hours, it'd be like an hour 45.
Yeah. And I feel like they like Broadway plays have a time limit or a minimum time just so it's like worth paying however much you pay for a Broadway ticket.
Like almost a hundred fricking dollars.
Is it only a hundred dollars?
I don't know.
I feel like it'd be more depending on the play.
Yeah, probably Lion King's like upwards of like what? Like five hundred dollars.
Maybe more.
All right. I'm going to see just for like shits and giggles what.
Okay, I'll look up Phantom of the Opera.
Oh, that's not horrible.
How much?
It's a hundred and nine bucks.
Oh yeah, that's not bad.
I was expecting like two fifty.
Yeah. Okay, that's not bad.
I feel though like if you like take a trip to New York and you want to see a show on Broadway, you have to be very selective because that's a lot of money to put into seeing a musical.
Yeah, that's a lot of money. And that's like on Broadway.
Yeah.
Yeah, the prices are bad.
Okay, so Phantom of the Opera, starting at one oh nine Hamilton one twenty three wicked one eleven.
Lion King's one forty seven.
Yeah, that makes sense.
Yeah, that that tracks everything else is like in the 60s 70s.
There's one in like the eight Harry Potter and the Cursed Child is in the 80s.
I straight up forgot that was a musical.
Yeah.
Shit, that's not horrible.
No, it's not.
Maybe, maybe I'll have to look into like a Broadway show.
Anyway, get back into Matilda. So there it does feel like there's a time limit because like the most of those plays that I saw are about two and a half hours.
I feel when a lot of musicals are adapted to movies.
It's very rare that you'll find one under two hours like usually two hours is like the gold standard.
So I'm pretty sure the problem was even two hours or at least damn near close.
Pretty sure.
Okay, yeah, you're looking at the yeah, two hours, ten minutes.
Okay, so yeah.
Because, yeah, I know Hairspray was actually I'm curious.
Yeah. And okay. And then those songs were definitely fillers then.
Because this so this movie was an hour 57 so it was just shy of two hours.
So you take out the maybe.
Ten minutes per song.
Like you're down to an hour 40 or you're down to like an hour 30 hour and a half.
Like you're down there.
So I just tracks. I can't take out any of the songs from this.
And this movie. You could have easily taken out a couple of songs.
In my opinion, no. And they didn't even put all the songs from the from the the the wow.
The original production.
I think there's a makes sense. I think there's like two that weren't enough.
So I believe that.
But yeah, anyway, so those were like the only two things I felt really slowed down the pacing everything else was paced pretty well.
Yeah, I agree. There were some things and this is just going back to the comment from Jason.
Yeah, it kind of felt a little rushed at times.
And it was mostly because of the song.
Like the song made the scene feel like it was going a little faster than it was.
Like there was like a rushed feel to it, which wasn't like.
Too distracting. It was a little bit like.
Like there it was almost anxious to get to the end of the song or end of the scene.
I think some it kind of worked for it, though, like I feel like the school song for like how like the how like fast like the prefects like talked.
It made sense why they were like just like pushing them through the school, just trying to introduce them to the surroundings as fast they could.
Yeah, there was a sense of urgency.
I feel like I'm starting to see where you guys are coming from.
I feel maybe it's just me.
Like, do you feel that that was kind of the case with the song revolting children?
Like a little bit, yeah, a little too fast.
It was really fast. I'm so glad I had the subtitles on.
Otherwise, I would have missed everything, dude.
Dude, yeah, like so there's one line in it that that is like completely different than the musical, I think, like where he where Bruce says.
Now that we know who we are, we like we'll actually start revolting or some shit like that.
Like in the musical, it's like a completely different line.
I'm forgetting it. But for the longest time, like what the hell is he saying?
Like it's saying I'm hearing one thing, but the lyrics are telling me something different.
And then I finally looked at the lyric video for this version.
I'm like, OK, he is saying that. OK, we're good.
Yeah. Like I said, everything is really decently paced.
The story is great. Yeah, like it's freaking Matilda.
Who doesn't love the story? Yeah, it's hard to to be harsh on on just this overall story.
Yeah. But my so my issues and what I'm mostly talking for is pacing issues.
That's fair. Still, I'm I'm I'm still fairly high with that.
I'm probably around. 88.
It's actually higher than I thought you were going to be. That's awesome.
I think I'm just going to go a little bit upwards to a 90.
Fair. I get it. All right.
Next up, we got writing.
I feel that this was really I don't know.
I feel this was really solid. And I know I feel like a lot of
I'm sure like some people when it comes to like especially the the Wormwoods
will say, oh, like the the parents in the original, the original are, you know, well written.
They're not as like over the top as they are in this one.
Like in this one, they're too much.
But I feel you got to remember that this is based off a musical.
And in musicals, you kind of have to be to get a point across.
So I when it comes to like a lot of the writing for like characters,
comparing them to the original to this one, I absolutely loved it.
It makes complete sense why either they had to be, you know, like more more of an asshole in a way,
just because you have to in a musical, it's a lot harder in some ways to get that across
instead of like just just like a movie like like the original.
Yes, this is a movie, but I'm sure that they wanted to stick close to the musical as much as they could.
And I've actually heard that this is like one of the best Broadway to screen adaptations that people have ever seen.
Like it doesn't lose any magic from the Broadway version.
I believe that. No, I would absolutely believe that.
Yeah, I mean, dialogue wise, it wasn't horrible.
It was like it was I think it was pretty consistent with everything that they had going on.
Like there wasn't anything that felt weird.
And I think anything that did feel weird, it was mostly because it was a child actor trying to say whatever was needed to be said,
which we'll get into. That was nothing that had to do with the actress who played Matilda.
Like she was perfect. She was freaking phenomenal.
Like, holy shit. Yeah, I can't wait to talk about her.
Frickin though, like with writing, I'm going to like put this with like the lyrics of a song I love in the school song that like after like every section of like them explaining the little girl that played Lavender would just chime in with why it was fricking adorable.
It was so cute.
Yeah.
But it was really smartly written.
A lot of things were really, really well done.
Did you feel like when it comes to like, like the writing of like how they explain crunch them all, and just how honestly like how all like the kids are already there talk about it and everything.
Do you feel like it was more terrifying in this one than the original?
What do you think? I feel the original felt
gross
where this one felt run down.
Okay.
Like, there was like an there was an unsanitary feel to the 1996 version.
This version feels like it is very clean. It's just all of its, like I said, very run down.
Yeah.
That's a good point.
Like it kind of, at least for me it had that militaristic feel.
It did.
Where it's like everything sanitary and everything. It's just not nice to look at.
Oh, did you see what those lunch ladies were cooking up?
Yeah, that was frickin rough.
But I mean it worked. I felt it worked.
No, I agree.
I'm trying to think of any like major dialogue issues which I'm not I can't think of any off the top of my head. I can't either.
The dialogue made sense. Nothing fell out of out of the blue.
What are you thinking?
I'm actually higher than my story. I'm gonna add 90. I'm gonna go one point higher, 91.
I'm probably gonna go do the same thing as you and just go like one higher.
Because it's pretty on par. I think any issues that I had were with over the top dialogue.
Which you can't get too upset about.
Because based off a musical.
So I'm gonna give it an 89.
Alright, next up we got acting. So we have Alicia Weir who plays...
Yeah, that's how you pronounce it.
I think that's how you pronounce her.
Alicia Weir who plays Matilda Wormwood.
We have Emma Thompson who plays Agatha Trunchbull.
Leshawna Lynch who plays Miss Honey.
Stephen Graham who plays Mr. Wormwood.
And Andrea Riseborough who plays Mrs. Wormwood.
And then anyone else that you feel... maybe Mrs. Phelps?
Yeah, Mrs. I would say... I don't know for me...
Well yeah, I guess Mrs. Phelps. Yeah.
There were just like some certain child actors that really stuck out to me.
But not really to like bring them up in like the main cast I guess.
Yeah. So Mrs. Phelps was played by Sindhu V.
Loved her.
Alright, so what does your top three look like?
Um...
Okay, sorry I gotta pull up this cast because I want to make sure that I get all these right.
Let's hope that this little girl is listed.
Sorry, one second.
Ah, she's not listed. That sucks.
So number three I would give to... I'm gonna butcher this name.
Ray... I'm assuming that's how you say her name.
Ray Yamayuchi Fulker?
I apologize because I'm sure I eff that up.
But she played Lavender and I freaking loved her every single time she was on screen.
She was just freaking adorable.
Like I said with the whole like how she kept chiming in during the school song, the Y.
It was so adorable.
And just I don't know, I loved her and the actress that played Matilda's dynamic.
Like I felt like they were actually like friends by the end of this movie.
And I loved the idea that it's both her and Matilda that start off the same day.
Like they're the new students whereas in the original like Lavender was already there.
She was already an established student.
Just yeah, I loved her performance. She was so great.
Yeah, I honestly hope to see her in more.
Yeah, so that's my number three.
Number two, I got to give to Emma Thompson who played Agatha Trunchbull.
She was amazing, so intimidating.
I absolutely freaking loved her.
Like oh my God, she was incredible.
I think I actually might have liked her a little more than the original actress.
That is a bold statement.
I know it is.
That is a very bold statement.
I know it is, but I absolutely loved her in this role so, so much.
Yeah, like I don't have nothing else to say besides just how incredible she was.
She was so brutal and I loved it and just incredible performance.
Okay, you know actually can I change my ranking a little bit?
You cool with that?
Yeah, go ahead.
Okay, so I'm sorry.
I'm going to actually knock the actress that played Lavender to number four because I actually forgot about someone.
And don't get me wrong, she's still amazing.
But number three actually I would give to Stephen Graham who played Mr. Wormwood.
Fair.
I don't know how I forgot about his performance.
Just thought about it.
Yeah, incredible.
He was such an asshole and I loved every minute of it.
He was so great.
Played it so, so well.
And then number one, I'm sure this comes as no surprise to you.
Alicia, sorry, Alicia Ware.
I don't know how you say it.
Anyway, Matilda, oh my God.
Like breakout performance.
I really hope she gets so much more work after this because freaking incredible.
Like she nailed every part about this character from the sweetness to just, I don't know, just everything about Matilda.
She absolutely nailed.
I don't have anything bad to say about her.
She was perfectly cast.
I absolutely agree with you.
But my top three looks different from yours.
Okay, I love it when that happens.
So my number three, I'm going to give to Lashana Lynch.
And it is mostly because I'm just so impressed with her range.
She is just mind-blowingly amazing at everything.
Like if she was the one actually singing, dude, like there's nothing she can't do.
She has done action.
She has done freaking like musicals.
She's done freaking like superhero role.
Like there's nothing she can't do.
And she's just incredible.
So you recognize her, right?
Yeah, it's Captain Marvel.
Yeah.
She also had a role in Woman King.
And she was just phenomenal in that role.
And so like seeing her in this where she has to be a little softer and not as demanding in her presence.
She does so freaking well.
It just blew my mind.
And then on top of that, if she's actually the one singing, she's an incredible singer.
I'm pretty sure she is.
Like from like when it lists like who's singing on Spotify, I'm pretty sure it's her.
It wouldn't surprise me.
She's just so freaking talented.
And I love her.
So yeah, she's my number three.
My number two, I'm going to give to Alicia Weir.
But it is close.
Yeah.
It is a literal coin flip.
She what I'm what I have to say about the the original Matilda.
So Mara Wilson is the one that plays Matilda for whatever reason.
I feel like that Matilda was very soft spoken, very shy and just didn't speak all that much.
Which that's fair, which is fine.
Yeah.
It's just not what I would expect from Matilda.
I like what I imagine her or Matilda to be, at least based off what I've seen from the book.
Like I said, I haven't read the book, but I've seen like little snippets of it.
What I've seen of the book, she is a very outspoken child.
And so seeing her as someone that's a little soft spoken is a little meh.
But Alicia has such demanding presence when she's on screen.
It is phenomenal to watch.
It really is.
Like you can say a lot about her performance.
Soft spoken is not one of them.
True that.
She was amazing from the freaking get go.
So I freaking loved her.
But I have to give my number one spot to Emma Thompson.
She is my, like you, she is my favorite Trench Bull adaptation.
Okay, so you like her better than the original two?
Okay.
Emma Thompson is an absolute gem.
She really is.
I love her so much.
There is nothing she can't do except act bad.
Yeah.
She, she's phenomenal.
I love her so much.
She, like oh my gosh.
Like she's done, she's done it all.
She has literally done it all.
Like she's played majestic roles where she has to play like high royalty, right?
She has played romantic roles where she was like in love actually.
She's played comedic roles where she's been like in that movie Late Night.
Oh yeah.
Like she's done, like I said, she's done comedic.
She has done stuff where she had to be like super chameleon.
Like I'm thinking like Nanny McPhee.
Yeah.
Like chameleon, unrecognizable, at least at the beginning of that movie.
Yeah.
Unrecognizable.
This is one of those things that's also very borderline unrecognizable.
Seriously.
Like kudos to the makeup department because god damn.
I will be giving some major props in the costume department.
Yes, I love it.
But it's just, she is a flawless actress.
There's nothing I hate about Emma Thompson.
She's just wonderful to watch.
And her performance as frickin' Trunch Bull, just perfection.
Pure perfection.
Yep.
And I cannot wait to watch her interviews discussing this role.
So yeah, that's what my top three looks like.
I love it.
Alright, what are you giving acting?
I'm not gonna lie, I am super high with this just because even like all the child actors I feel were fantastic.
Especially the whole core, because I'm gonna even include a little bit of how they acted in some of the numbers.
These kids have more talent than I ever had at this age.
Like god damn.
Like holy shit.
Yeah, the whole cast is fantastic.
I love them all.
Not even any of the kids brought it down for me.
All of them did a great job.
So I'm even higher than writing.
I'm gonna go a 93.
I am gonna say I'm not quite that high.
If it were the main cast alone, that's a definite maybe.
I may even be higher than you if it was just the main cast.
What I'm docking for is a lot of the child interactions that were had.
I feel like her interaction with some of her schoolmates was a little child actor-y.
Which isn't bad.
It's just there's a level of inexperience there in normal dialogue that feels off.
But that's not a big issue whatsoever for me.
So with that, I am gonna be at like a 90.
Okay, I completely get that.
But it is really freaking good.
So no issues.
At least with everything else.
Like the main cast are phenomenal.
Yeah.
Alright, next up we got character development, which obviously we do this off of Matilda's story.
Which I feel is really freaking solid.
It's not bad.
So her characterization, she kinda stays the same.
Like kinda has that sweetness, the innocence, love of books and learning.
Nothing too off the walls there.
But the way that she's able to push herself into different situations was really well done.
It was...
Like I felt...
How do I wanna word this?
I felt like even though her characterization didn't go too many places, the character herself did.
And I think the way that she was able to interpret the world around her and the things that were happening
with this story that she was quote unquote making up,
it was interesting.
Had I not seen the first Matilda and kinda knowing what was going on,
I probably would have fallen for the whole, oh she's just making this story up thing.
Not having that moment of realization that it was Miss Honey and her story.
I think they did a good job adapting what was happening within her real life to this fantasy world.
So you could make those obvious connections to people.
So I thought that was really well crafted.
And I think the way that she was able to team up with her classmates was really well done as well.
From someone that wasn't looked on with too much favor.
To someone that was viewed as the hero of the school.
Yeah, because she told the Trunchbull no.
When Lavender approaches her about that, she's like, hey old friend, starting a rebellion and everything.
And the one girl gives her a breakfast sandwich and Lavender is like, eggs and bacon, like seriously.
I'm like, oh my god.
So what are you sitting with character development? I don't have too much else to say about it.
Honestly, you hit the nail on the head with that. I don't really even have anything to add to yours.
I will say it's probably the lowest of my scores so far. It's still a really good character development.
So I'll go an 89.
Yeah, this is probably where I'm the lowest as well.
I'm sitting at an 85 with this one.
You know what, actually I'm going to actually go a little lower.
I'm going to go an 87 because I know you got a point.
Alright, next up we got effects.
So there were a decent amount of special effects done in this movie.
I will say this, there was some green screen on this, like some very obvious green screen that did not look great.
Fair.
But that was...
This one is tough to do because there was some stuff that looked really good and some stuff that didn't.
There's one that I got to know your opinion on.
Could you tell that the kid that played Bruce Bogtrotter was wearing a fat suit?
It was so freaking obvious that he was wearing a fat suit. It was ridiculous.
I don't even know if it was even a fat suit. Like, hell, if you told me they just stuffed a pillow under his shirt, I would have believed you.
That's what it looked like.
I was watching it and I was just kind of looking at the kid and I'm like... you can tell when someone's actually fat because they wear it in their face a little bit.
Yeah, fair.
He had skinny face and just fat gut and then skinny legs.
I'm like, that kid's not really fat.
Wait, what was that kid's name? Nigel?
No, Bruce.
Bruce? I'm pulling up this kid's IMDB to see if he's fat or not.
He's not.
Because...
Yeah, before I saw the movie, I saw the behind the scenes of comparing how it looked on screen with the revolting children.
You see in the rehearsal that the kid's pretty skinny.
Well, he's not super skinny, but I'm just like, yeah, y'all put a freaking pillow under his shirt. The kid is not fat.
Yeah, I freaking saw that from a mile away.
And I'm not saying, like, oh, we should just hire...
I'm not saying... the kid did great. The kid did a great job as Bruce. I loved his performance.
But, has it been that hard to get a kid that's just a little bigger?
So you don't have to use a fat suit?
I will say this. The obvious giveaway was when he was dancing.
Yeah, you could totally tell the kid was having a hard time working with the fat suit.
It wasn't even that, dude. He was moving too energetically.
I'm like, you're not moving like someone who's fat.
You'd actually be surprised, because I will fully admit, when I was a kid, I was the fat kid.
That's how I was. You'd be amazed, especially because if I'm thinking back to my drama days,
you'd be amazed of how when they're like... if you're in the move, you're really excited, you have purpose,
you can move almost just as fast as other kids.
I'm not saying that you can't. I'm not saying that you couldn't keep up with the other kids.
Just fat shamed me.
No, listen. I'm not fat shaming you. Just listen to me.
I'm just kidding.
I'm not saying that you couldn't keep up physically with the other kids.
What I am saying is that a fat kid's body moves differently than a not fat kid.
You can keep up the same pace. I will 100% give you that.
Equal movement, whatever.
But there's going to be movement in places that are not in the skinny kid.
And this kid wasn't jiggling right.
We're going to get cancelled for fat shaming here.
We're not fat shaming.
No, I'm just kidding.
Fat shaming would be straight up making fun of the kid for being fat.
This kid wasn't fat. He was quote unquote supposed to be.
But it's just he wasn't moving right is what I'm getting at.
His body wasn't doing the things that a fat kid's body should have been doing.
His stomach wasn't jiggling enough. Come on, guys.
Yeah, the truffle shuffle was not obvious.
Yeah, like I said, I like I know that there I am a slow person.
There's no way that I could keep up with someone dancing with that much energy behind them.
No way in hell.
Maybe if I had my inhaler.
Yeah, like I know.
I know that there are heftier people that just cannot help their weight situation or whatever.
That can't help that.
That move with just elegance and just like a power behind them, which is awesome.
Yeah, kudos to you.
I was not one of those kids.
Right. But what I'm my whole point is they there there is movement on their body that is that is obvious.
And I like, you know, like, you can tell when someone move like when someone's pretend pretending to be fat versus someone that isn't.
And this kid wasn't moving like a fat kid.
My question, though, is the considering how much prosthetics that they put, you know, like, you know, makeup and stuff they had to do for Emma Thompson with with the trunchbull.
So you said the actor that they picked to play Bruce, he did a great job.
I love the kid. Did a great job.
Couldn't they have like taken some of those prosthetics and like made him at least look a little bit more like a like a little bit of a chubbier kid?
I feel like the only thing they really added was like kind of a heftier chin.
Oh, they did like a little bit.
It was like more of a like a rounded face.
Kind of. It was like barely.
They seriously they dropped their whole budget on frickin trunchbull.
Yeah, which that's OK, because she looked fantastic.
But, um, and definitely he them them legs should not have been that skinny.
No, speaking from experience of being a chubbier kid.
Yeah, your legs will never be.
Sorry to say. Yeah.
But again, not the biggest issue.
He needed them thunder thighs.
That's the kid. Yeah, that that needed some thunder thighs.
Honestly, that was probably more of a costume complaint than anything.
But at least we've talked about it now.
Yeah, now we can just put it into costumes.
Yeah. So effects wise, I think there was a lot of the the telekinesis stuff that looked very CGI.
The the hat looked the hat looked good for a minute.
Until it like started zooming off, like far away.
I will definitely agree with you on that one.
Yeah, that that that that was a little off for me to try to think of some other like special.
What did you think? Like with like the the kids song with when I grow up with them, you know,
like being like the one kid that's on the motorcycle and then the two kids that are in the jet planes.
What do you think of like the effects when it came to that?
That actually didn't look bad to me.
I agree. I think I'm able to let go of poor CGI in those instances where it's an obvious dream effect.
It's a child's imagination. So, yeah, it's not going to be like perfect.
And that's kind of what you want. Yeah.
It's like I'm almost I'm more forgiving of scenes like that.
Same here. Yeah. Where it's just like that.
Like, OK, the CGI wasn't the best objectively, but it worked better.
Yeah. Yeah, there you go. It's a good way to put it.
Like, I don't know how how else to describe that.
It's just like it was it was consistent CGI throughout.
Like all the CGI was the same, like the on the same level.
It's just that scene seemed to work a little bit better than everything else.
Yeah, that's fair. So, um.
Effects, I'm pretty decent on effects. It's probably my second lowest, though.
Maybe actually. No, I think I'm going to put it on the same level of story.
I think I'm sitting at like.
Actually, I'll add again, I'm going to put it at like an eighty seven.
No, I'll match on that.
All right. Here's where our discussion is going to get interesting.
So I'll start at a ten and I'll work my way down.
That's so that's how I like to start with with music.
I like always try to say, OK, like everything is at a ten and it just anytime I hear music, it's like either stays or drops.
Yeah, because I will admit there are some.
There's like some tracks that are not as stuck in my head as some others, but I feel overall.
God, this is like a fricking toe tapping soundtrack to me, especially I.
I'm going to tell you right now, my top five songs or top three songs on Spotify for the end of this year are going to come from this musical.
Because I cannot stop listening to revolting children, the school song and the naughty song.
Those have been on repeat for a for a fricking week, revolting children, even before I even saw this movie,
just because of like seeing all the like advertisements and everything like, OK, I finally want to actually listen to the whole song.
And God damn is so good.
This was a really good soundtrack.
My my only complaint with it again, going back to Jason Lampert's comment.
It did feel very fast if I it's the same issue I have with rap.
If I can't like sit there and read what the rap is, what the rap is, or like the lyrics, I do not understand for the life of me.
I have to like be sitting there and like actively reading along.
And so there like that was the issue I had with this.
Like if I know if I had did not have the subtitles on, I would have been extremely lost.
I feel I know I did have to like go back a couple of times, especially with the revolting children song and make sure that I'm hearing the words right.
But I don't know. There were some songs that especially with revolting children, like I was OK that it was moving so fast.
Like it kind of made sense like, yeah, the the revolting went by very quickly.
But I don't know the way that the song was set up.
It worked for me. I was OK that it was like so up tempo and it was going so fast.
Kind of the same thing with the school song, but at least with the school song, there were moments where it took it took moments to breathe.
And then it just started back up again.
Not very many moments. That's true.
It's mostly just like I've said before, Lavender just chiming in with why whenever they would finish explaining like, oh, you know, like this is what this is what's going to happen.
This is why physical education is the trunchable speciality. All that fun stuff.
But I don't know, I enjoyed almost every single song like literally I can't get this damn soundtrack out of my fricking head.
It's a it's a good soundtrack. I'm not going to argue with you on that.
This is honest. I feel like you're sitting at a 10.
I'm more so because there are a couple songs that I'm just like, I don't really see myself revisiting like on Spotify and everything.
So I'm actually more so leaning towards a nine. That's actually where I'm at.
I would not go lower than than a nine with at least with a musical of this quality.
Yeah. OK. It was.
It's a really solid soundtrack. It's just the pacing is what what jacked it up for me.
So, all right. Sitting at a nine for for that.
Moving on over to costumes. I am about the same.
I can. Yeah, I can absolutely give you that.
I feel like the the uniforms for the school were pretty good.
And I just want to compare real quick.
All right. Kind of comparing the.
The art to the Matilda book.
I will say that I do feel like this movie is more faithful.
Because at least on the cover, Matilda is sitting on a big pile of books.
She has long brown hair and she's wearing like a blue dress.
So I do feel like there were some artistic liberties taken with the with the school uniforms.
Yeah. Which is kind of cool.
And I. Yeah.
So, I mean, no, no complaints when it comes to Matilda's look.
And again, no real complaints when it comes to.
All the other kids, the other kids were wearing uniforms. It was. Yeah.
It fit.
Trunchbull was the standout.
Oh, yeah, absolutely. And she looked in credible.
Very like militaristic feel.
She had like some big ass frickin boots, dude. And that's coming from me.
The fact that she also wore that like kind of I don't know what you call it.
Like you can automatically just go right onto the PA system.
I frickin loved that touch.
And I love that at the end, it's Bruce that picks that up and that's how we lead into the revolting children song.
Yeah, very, very good decisions all around from the costume department.
Absolutely. And then.
Yeah. Really, really dug at all their decisions there.
So. Like you sitting at a nine costumes wise.
And that is probably solely because of Trunchbull. Yeah, most definitely.
All right. Last up, we got our own personal score. So I'll let you take this one first.
OK. Since you liked it better.
Yeah. So overall, I mean, Caleb knows this and I'm sure a lot of you listeners do.
If you've listened to our show for a while, I'm a sucker for a good musical with being in musical theater in junior high and high school.
I frickin love this kind of shit. So I absolutely love this movie.
I had a blast from start to finish. I do have some problems with it, but they're few and far between.
The cast is great. The songs are great. Just everything is so frickin good.
And I just had a frickin blast. So for me.
I'm going to go a. I'm going to go a 92.
I'm a bit harsher on musicals and it's not.
I don't consider myself a musical fan, but when I do watch them, I am nine times out of ten impressed with what I see.
And this was like no exception.
I really like this adaptation. I didn't know how I felt.
Like, actually, I went into this not expecting a whole lot because again, like I said, I don't consider myself a fan of musicals.
And I know Matilda wasn't a musical. So or I thought like I didn't realize they made like a Broadway show until we started recording.
Oh, really? Yeah.
So I just thought that this was like a random out of the blue musical.
And so. That's that's how I came into this movie.
I was just like, OK, they just made a musical based off of Matilda.
Not sure how well this is going to work, but it actually ended up working pretty well.
So I was very surprised.
It's it's good family friendly fun for the most part.
But, yeah, I really dug it.
Not quite as high as you, though. I will say I'm like.
I think I'm like eighty five range. Completely fair, completely understandable.
So, yeah.
Well, with that, that concludes this week's breakdown and the final all bros are going through our each category score first.
I can't forget that.
Starting off with story, we can't we started off out of the gate, sitting at a very strong eighty nine.
The writing scored a little bit higher, just barely sitting at a strong ninety.
Acting went up just a hair from there, sitting at a ninety one point five.
Character development dropped down significantly, at least from acting, and it ended up being our lowest category, sitting at an eighty six.
Effects jumped up a little bit to an eighty seven.
Music, costumes, both sitting at a very strong nine.
And then our personal score averaged out to an eighty eight point five.
So with that, the final all bros letter grade for Matilda has come to a.
B plus. Yeah, I love it.
Yeah, and it is sitting at a very sturdy eighty nine percent.
Yes, I love it. That's awesome.
Yeah. So let me see real quick.
All righty. So Matilda, the musical, like we said, sitting at an eighty nine percent, puts it on the exact same level as the Mitchell's versus the machines.
All right. I like that.
Yeah, right. I freaking love that.
Like I will personally enjoy Mitchell's versus machines a little bit better.
But quality of movie. I will absolutely agree.
They're they're on the same page.
All right. So with that eighty nine, it is sitting below Spider-Man Far From Home.
With our new updated score, it is below Rise of the Planet of the Apes, which is at an eighty nine point two five.
It is below Knives Out, which is at an eighty nine point three one.
It is below Black Panther, which is at an eighty nine point three four.
And then finally, it is below our original Spider-Man Far From Home score.
That's funny.
Which is at an eighty nine point three five.
Going the opposite direction, it is sitting above the Unicorn Store, which is at an eighty eight point eight seven.
It's above Luka, which is at an eighty eight point six two.
It's above Top Gun Maverick, which is at an eighty eight point six two.
I'm sorry, I can agree with that.
And then it is above Halloween 2018, which is also at an eighty eight point six two.
Understandable.
And then last, it is above Bros, which is at an eighty eight point five six.
Wow, okay, be Bros.
Yeah, right?
Damn. I mean, I'm not going to lie, if I would have seen this before we did our top ten.
It was top ten we did, right? Or was it top five?
Top ten.
This either would have beat Bros or would have come in at number two.
That's fair.
Did this come out 2022? Is this technically 2022?
Yeah, it dropped on Netflix Christmas Day.
Okay. Cool.
So yeah, that's where Matilda the musical is sitting.
And I think it has a very decent home.
Absolutely agree.
Alright, well, unless you have anything else to say about Matilda.
No, I've got nothing.
Alright, well, that will conclude this week's breakdown.
