He meant to say "When a CHILD is bad." Instead he said "When a PERSON is bad." and thereby introduced a revolutionary idea: that children could punish their parents... if and when they deserved it of course.
i actually took this to heart and hid a few of my parents items on them for a while when i was a kid... they found them eventually of course but i did make them think they were losing their minds
I always forget Danny DeVito plays the Dad. He’s such a good actor that when he changes his personality and grows a mustache you literally don’t notice that he’s Danny DeVito.
@@hero-chan9748 it's always a surprise to me when it comes to Danny Devito. Like how the parents were married in real life or that he played the goat in Hercules
I can't believe Wormwood never suspected Matilda being responsible for adding a bleaching agent to his hair tonic when she's obviously snickering at him for it.
Since Danny DeVito is narrating this I'm thinking it's implied that Mr wormwood is telling his story from prison after getting caught and has finally learned his lesson after all these years
Some would think that. But on the other hand, the narrator and Harry Wormwood are basically two different people, despite having being portrayed and voiced by the same actor.
My and my grandmas favorite movie. She passed away but I still watch it. Good memories for me. We laughed at this scene. Her dad deserved this . His wife's reaction is priceless
I never quite got why Harry needed stolen car parts in the first place. Like, are the car parts from old cars? And if so, why do they need to be stolen? If they are new, why is he putting new parts on old cars when he's a dodgy dealer anyway? May as well go to a scrapyard and use old parts he could pick up for next to nothing no? Oh and we can all just admit this family definitely live in Florida right?
@@TheLoonyLovebad1 Actually Roald Dahl is from Wales and his parents are Norwegian immigrants. But yeah, he lived primarily in England and his stories tend to feature English protagonists.
1:38 Why do the Wormwoods have a dining room even though they eat microwave dinners in their living room? 1:46 "Today we diddle the customers". I didn't understand "diddle" when I was a kid, but now I do since Harry tricks his customers into buying faulty automobiles
Serves him right, that remorseless, cowardly, greedy, abusive Jackass for all the stuff he did to Matilda, and encouraging Micheal to pick on his little sister. Shame on him, but Danny Devitos's performance was exemplary.
COOKIES FOR BREAKFAST!? I would shout this right at the T.V when I watched this as a kid. Being a kid who was never allowed to eat sugar for breakfast-Except on special occasions such as my birthday, Christmas and Easter- , and now a health-conscious adult, I could never understand why Michel is eating chocolate chip cookies for breakfast-it is so wrong!
@@davidfarmer2193 And Matilda has real magic inside her, like Harry Potter! Matilda is actually a witch, and on her 11th birthday, she got her Hogwarts acceptance letter and went- and was sorted into Ravenclaw, of course! And guess who got to go to Hogwarts with her? Her best friend-Lavender Brown! And it is a good thing she was adopted before she found out-Miss Jenifer Honey was very proud to have a truly magical daughter, the Warmwoods, on the other hand would have been just as bad as the Dursleys!
Mara Wilson and Macaulay Culkin are my two favourite child actors/actresses of the 90’s… both are just absolutely adorable and loveable by all. I’m glad that Mara got a title role in Matilda, whereas in Mrs Doubtfire she was a secondary, yet important character.
Could you imagine if Kevin McCallister and Matilda Wormwood Honey met up and became friends? I think that it would be hilarious to see Miss Trunchbull and the Wormwoods fall for booby traps, or the Wet Bandits fall victim to magic powers!
love the super glue hat and the diner scene i also love how matilda reverse the carrots and made her own brother eats his own carrots just to funny lol
Why in the world would they censor THAT?! It's such a nothing thing to censor. Do they really think we're so delicate that we can't handle a little thing like "sucker"?!
He meant to say "When a CHILD is bad." Instead he said "When a PERSON is bad." and thereby introduced a revolutionary idea: that children could punish their parents... if and when they deserved it of course.

The same when he played as the penguin in batman returns.

He's also the narrator
He directed the movie too.
@@hero-chan9748 it's always a surprise to me when it comes to Danny Devito. Like how the parents were married in real life or that he played the goat in Hercules
Lol “Heart strings” and “Snickerdoodle”.
you can say a lot but the parents clearly did love each other and matched completly lol
Those sound like good names for candy.
@@harrisonbetker2271 They could be
@@velvety2006 Right? 😂
What about Lovekins
2:12 The way he screams & falls sideways instead of backwards was comedy gold 🤣 Danny Divito is a national treasure
Exactly. At least Danny Devito & his real life wife took care of Mara Wilson( Matilda) in real life when her mother was dying
Ikr.
Reminds me of that scene in Only Fools and Horses when Del Boy (David Jason) falls sideways in the pub.
"Danny Devito dyed his hair,💇 blonde?" 🤔
I love how Danny Devito and his wife took care of Mara during filming.
I heard that her biological mother passed away around the time they were filming, and they were impressed by how much of a trooper she was
@@rangerfanboy1710 the movie was actually complete and her mother got to see before it was released.
Yeah he brought the uncut version to her mother before she passed away :)
@@rangerfanboy1710 yes and the film was dedicated to her.
I love how the FBI agent was so pleased with himself for being right about the time, he just had to put it on record!
Did they really bleep out sucker!? Sucker is not a curse word what?! 🤦🏻♀️
It's because the electronic YT algorithm recognized the dialogue as _"There's a f**ker born every minute..."_ Lol ;)
Yet "diddle the customer" was left in. I never caught that phrase before now. :)
I know, right?? It tripped me out as well!!
I agree with you suckers not a curse word so there shouldn't be a beep
When they show it on tv they started bleeping out "for this newt you pissworm!"
I love his scream and fall to the side. Makes me laugh every time.
Yeah, me too.
Same here 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Yeah hahaha the way he falls is actually very reminiscent of when Del Boy falls through the bar in Only Fools and Horses 😂😂😂😂
True, but nothing beats the classic scream and fall of Kevin's mum from Home Alone. "KEVIN!" 😱
Same!
I can't believe Wormwood never suspected Matilda being responsible for adding a bleaching agent to his hair tonic when she's obviously snickering at him for it.
Probably too concerned about his hair to notice her, according to him 'appearance is 9/10 of the law'
Unlike Matilda, the rest of the family aren't the sharpest knives in the drawer
I’m surprised he never caught her snickering.
@@therealsapdad1942 Understatement of the century, exhibit A.
A running theme of the movie (and book) is that the family pay very little attention to Matilda.
1:54 - Here we are, my heartstrings. AAHAAAH!! (throws the cereal)😆😆😆😆
2:12 - AAAAAARRRRGGGHHHH!!!!!!!!! (faints)🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The funniest scene 🤣🤣🤣
Ha ha you know when this movie came out, I was 6 years old. And this scene made me laugh then too and still to this day.
It was hilarious but, Vinnias' reaction looked fake to me....
Snickerdoodles! What did you do to your hair?!
That’s what he get!
I'm so glad Danny DeVito and Rhea Perlman played the parents. They were just so perfect.😂
After all, they were married during the filming of Matilda.
@@jackver2006 they're still married, but separated.
@@rachelxx1991 I know. I meant during the actual filming of Matilda, not in the current times.
@@rachelxx1991 I think they’re still friends and she doesn’t want to file for divorce
@@brianpratts yes, they're still close.
Matilda was trying so hard not to laugh 😂 she wouldn’t of survived to the end of the movie if she got caught doing that
*laugh 😂. She wouldn’t have survived
*that.
I loved her doing that stuff its so funny
Her expressions are priceless in this scene.
Blonde hair actually suits him, though. He should be proud of it.
Yeah, looks great.
I’m surprised he didn’t realized that Matilda put dye in his hair oil or whatever it’s called.
I agree.
If I was Matilda I will give him a punishment
@@pkmntrainerdee6153 Well to be fair, she only put a tiny bit of it in and it still looked relatively purple.
it's funny how his character is the mean dad but in real life. He actually takes care of Wilson while her mom was sick.
Her mother died of breast cancer shortly before the film was released in cinemas, but she got to watch it right before she passed away.
I for a second thought Wolson was the beachball before remembering her name
1:56 Zinnia's reaction killed me EVERY TIME.
Wth zinnia is wearing
@@RedToxicHoodie that is her nightdress and matching robe
What I love more is that the reaction is pretty much lifted straight from the original Roald Dahl novel. It works so well!
@rippingtons60 Ikr. And when Harry saw how his hair look & falls to the side. LOL
For me more harry's scream 2:12
Harry wormwood: 😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱
His hair doesn't even look bad. In fact I actually like it! ^^
I think in the original book, Matilda uses green hair dye
It does look nice tho
@@Nick_C1997actually she puts her mother’s platinum blonde hair dye in his hair tonic. It bleached his hair
@@bloodyrose1985 yeah, that’s what she does in the film, I mean she dyes it green in the original book that the film is based on
@@Nick_C1997I don't know why Danny DeVito didn't do that in the film.
Since Danny DeVito is narrating this I'm thinking it's implied that Mr wormwood is telling his story from prison after getting caught and has finally learned his lesson after all these years
That’s an interesting theory. I like it!
My thoughts exactly.
Some would think that. But on the other hand, the narrator and Harry Wormwood are basically two different people, despite having being portrayed and voiced by the same actor.
That makes sense. It would make even more sense that Harry, Zinny and Michael never made it to the airport and were caught by the feds.
Yeah, and even if they did escape, they most likely would have eventually been caught anyway, since Guam is under US jurisdiction.
2:12 the faint Harry did was hilarious 😂
Same. I enjoyed it
2:15 Matilda Was Trying Not To Laugh but she Couldn't help how Funny It is
AAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The way Danny DeVito screamed & fainted was hilarious 🤣
The way Michael opened his mouth and dropped the cookie when he first noticed Harry hair was blonde😂1:46
“What’s wrong with you?!?!? What are you looking at?!?!?!?” 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
That's the underrated part of this scene.
“They’re not cops, they’re speedboat salesmen” 🤪
"Real Noice Guys!"
"There are no lakes around here!"
“We gotta beat the speedboat salesman to the airport “
@@mikeRedMDK2032 "Well SUM people Like to GO AWAY for the Weekend. SUM people have FUN!!"

Matilda’s laugh at the end 😂💕
His scream killed me of laughter!!!! 😂🤣
He really is a swackhammer to me .
Love how he didn’t fall backwards or forward but he fell to the side
My and my grandmas favorite movie. She passed away but I still watch it. Good memories for me. We laughed at this scene. Her dad deserved this . His wife's reaction is priceless
I'm sorry to hear that.
RIP
Matilda is so adorable
Agreed, but her parents and brother are asses.
Plus clever as a fox, as smart as a chimp, and as prepared as an ant stockpiling food for the winter months!
@@hopeoconnor1626 yeah they were. hard to believe she was related to them.
In the end, she gets adopted by Miss Jennifer Honey
Here here!
This scene made me laugh 😂🤣 Danny nailed it so well.
2:12 - My reaction when I see a spider
😮😮😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😖😖😖
Cockroach for me.
Oh hell no.
My reaction when I see a yellowjacket
Why the heck is "sucker" bleeped?
Because the electronic YT algorithm erroneously recognized the dialogue as _"there's a f**ker born every minute..."_
I always laughed when Zinna throws the cereal backwards when she screamed. LOL 1:57
Imagine pee wee Herman sending you to jail or moving to Guam because he’s after you 🤣🤣🤣
Geez as a kid I didn't even notice that's the same actor.
Me neither 😂 lol
@@Mr.Derogatory316 I didn't know until now
And Bob Hawkins the goon.
From the 1989 Batman movie. Same actor as the other cop.
2:12 In the book, the dad never screamed when he saw his hair. But this is still funny.
2:12 Danny's Scream Is Funny 😂😂😂
You know he doesn’t look that bad with blonde-ish hair, in fact it makes him look in style if anything for the late 90s.
1:46 Danny said diddle! You know what that foreshadowed! 😂😂😂
I like the way Harry looks at his wife and asked my hair and turns to look into the mirror and scream in a great shock and falls down.
I like the entire scene too 👍🏾
I enjoyed this scene too
You know the character weren't the best of parents, but as a couple they're pretty hilarious XD

More than likely California.
Roald Dahl is English so the story actually takes place in England
@@TheLoonyLovebad1 Actually Roald Dahl is from Wales and his parents are Norwegian immigrants. But yeah, he lived primarily in England and his stories tend to feature English protagonists.
They're probably stolen and defective, he patches them up just enough to get the car working
The FBI is in the movie so it takes place in America.
2:11 😱🤣🤣 can’t stop laughing 😂
That scream from the mom 😂
1:38 Why do the Wormwoods have a dining room even though they eat microwave dinners in their living room?
1:46 "Today we diddle the customers". I didn't understand "diddle" when I was a kid, but now I do since Harry tricks his customers into buying faulty automobiles

Danny Devito’s acting in this movie is magnificent
Agreed. I like Danny DeVito but I hate his character, Harry Wormwood.
Oh man!!!!!!😅😂😆😹 That never get old!!!!!!! Danny DeVito you and your wife really know how to give a person a smile
Am I the only one who finds Matilda's laugh adorable?
Not in the least!
She’s adorable in general! 😍💕
Danny Devito's scream and faint 🤣🤣👍👍.
cracks me laugh hard is funny at Harry s hair looks in the mirror
1:29 what did he say in the censored bit?
edit: how is sucker censored?
They thought it was a bad word. They got it mixed up.
The dad: AAAHHH * faints *
Matilda * sips drink *
Well oiled hair, clean shave, and a snappy suit. A man’s way of taking pride in appearances.
Danny Devito is cool and surprising.!
My favorite movie as a kid. Still probably my favorite today, if I'm being honest.
It’s always the sideways fall that killed me 😂😂😂
When he fell sideways 😂😂😂
That was funny when he fell for it 🤣 😂 😆 😀 and that was a good one 👍🥰💖.
