MPAA rating: Rated PG for elements of exaggerated meanness and ridicule and for some mild language.
Matilda is a super-smart little girl who is woefully ignored and ridiculed by her self-centered parents. They send her to a school with a mean, bullying principal, where she learns she has special powers that can help her, her friends, and her kind and gentle teacher.
