After watching the movie and reading the book I prefer the movie better. I prefer the movie better because I feel like the movie took away some parts from the movie and made it better. Also I love watching movies because a lot of times I will prefer a movie more than a book. Sometimes the movie doesn't change anything that was in the book. Finally I really thought the movie was better.

ReplyDeleteI like the movie more because they did a lot more stuff. It's cool because you can actually see what is going on so it is better. Also, it's funnier because they say everything. I just like the movie better.

From hearing the book and watching the movie I think the movie is better. It was really funny. They changed the movie witch made it better. The movie was also really cool. I liked the movie more. Henry W.
ReplyDeleteI like the book cause it showed every detail that a movie couldn't. I also like the tones Mrs. Braddy used when telling the story like "HARRY". Though in the movie it was funny like when Ms. Trunchbull< ): went "TALLIHO" I think the book was funnier.

After watching the movie and reading the book I prefer the book and the movie because I got a chance to picture what was happening in the book in my mind.Once I saw the movie I could see in real life what I was picturing in my head.The movie had some more parts than the book, but the book had more detail in the parts that the movie anthe book had.So I really could not pick between the book or the movie.

ReplyDeleteI liked the movie better because it had different things that the book didn't. In the book they did not have the part when Matilda and Ms.Honey snuck into the Trunchable's house. I know this might sound crazy and usually it is the exact opposite but I think the movie haad more detail than the book. Also in the book they didn't have when Ms.Honey adopted Matilda. Then again I might like the movie because I saw it before we read the book.

ReplyDeleteAfter watching the movie and reading the book I like the movie better.

But in the movie Matilda went to go steal the doll back from miss.trunchibles house.lizzie b.
ReplyDeleteI liked the movie because it added more stuff like when they went into the house to get Ms.Honey's prize possessions. The book is still good I just prefer the movie more. And it was fun to see what the characters look like and to see what they thought best fits the role in Matilda. Also i love movies and it was cool to see a book in a movie form. Matilda is a great movie. BEN
ReplyDeleteIf I could choose,I would choose the movie.I would choose the movie because I thought it was more interesting.I thought it was more interesting because it had more details.I still really liked the book because it also had a lot of detail.Also, the book and movie had some different little details.I liked the movie more because it had more detail.Carson
ReplyDeleteAfter waching the movie and read the book, I like the movie better. Because you can see the charters, And you can see her powers. Also you can see mrs.Houny house. will. A
ReplyDeleteI liked the movie more because it has more detail. Also it had parts that were not in the book. And didn't have parts that were in the book. And you could see the Trunchable. and Miss Honeys house is bigger than the book said it was.-French
ReplyDeleteAfter watching the movie and read the book I thought the movie was better than the book. I thought the movie was better because it told more. For example the movie said miss Honey and Matilda went to Miss Trunchbull's house to get what is miss Honey's. Also in the book they did not explain that miss trunchbull was miss Honeys aunt. So my choice would be the movie I think it has more detale.

I enjoyed the book better because, I it was easy to understand the characters personality because Mrs. Braddy's tone she used for each character. It's kind of weird but I could visualize the characters, it's almost as if I were right there in the book with the characters.
