The Smell of Rebellion | Roald Dahl’s Matilda the Musical | Netflix Philippines

An extraordinary girl with a sharp mind and a vivid imagination takes a daring stand to change her story — with miraculous results. Meet Matilda.

I love how she gets both hated gym teacher archetypes in there: Driving around while the children suffer, but then only using that to _conserve her energy_ to destroy them on the obstacle course. Genuinely one of my favorite "just plain evil" villains since Cruella.

I knew Emma Thompson had range as an actress but man the way she altered her voice during this song to fit the character is just beyond impressive. Especially the way she hit the last note. If I hadn't known she was playing Trunchbull and just heard the audio by itself I don't know if I would've recognized her

[katharinashegohill]

It is very significant that the Trunchbull eventually passes through her own obstacle course, and even with brilliance. She can be mercilessly cruel, arrogant and harsh, but she isn't "softened", she is still in very good form.

IM SO OBSESSED WITH THIS SONG the explosions after (almost) every “discipline” was amazing, with emma’s voice being so powerful like the rhymes were just MMMM, and the part where trunchbull was on the swing got me cackling. i had to rewind so my mom could take a video of it!😂 “dont let them steal your horsesss”

1:25

Probably the nicest thing she does in the movie, even if she's the one who led her there.

3:13 that part was really funny 😂. How the woman who was looking so aggressive and dangerous suddenly goes into a beautiful song and becomes beautiful herself.

[cxlvtic]

I love the part where she is climbing. The vocals are beautiful

[ScriptForever]

2:25 I don’t know why but seeing the Trunchbull riding a zipline is just hilarious 💀

[garrettgriffith]

3:49 I really like the instrumentals in this part cause it shows they’ve pushed Agatha to her limit and her vocals are truly just magnificent and so powerful and also notice how loud and heavy the instrumentals are like I said it shows they pushed her too far

[imaginationstation]

3:10 well at least she’s expressing her feelings

[Sode_GrapeNephilim]

The fact that their pe uniform is literally prison attire lol. Also I rlly love Ms. Emma Thompson's voice in this song ❤️

[ashleyraymartin]

I cracked when I saw the Trunchbull with her hair down and with make up 🤡 😂😂😂😂😂 but I love how Emma Thompson did an outstanding job of making her character look like the exact replica of the Trunchbull in the old Matilda movie. 👏🏻

Since moving to the city, I've missed my mother. Agatha Trunchbull has been a comforting reminder of her. What a great character.

[angrynoodletwentyfive]

Watching this with the assumption that the "don't let them take your horses" part of the song was Trunchbulls inner "horse girl" child morning the loss of her own childhood. (assumably her parents were stict and abusive just like she is) turns a really funny out of nowhere moment into something really tragic and sad...

00:23 This song is sung in physical education. From Matilda’s face you can understand that she knows about physical education, she knows because this is the same physical education that the prefects talked about in the School song. And this is a very cool detail.

[pedroamaralcouto]

Kids and adults can learn dozens of words from that song alone.

[Ghosty_Bo]

My cousin played Ms. Trunchbull in his school play and he sang this song so well

[applescantos]

3:10 is probably the weirdest part of the entire movie. It’s just weird to see an arrogant person have a dream like this. And the “she’s mad” line just makes it better.

[Marifer]

“Singingg neiiigh, neeeigh, neiiigh” “shes mad” my fav part 3:23 HAHAHAHAHA

[sophiaschannel]

3:01 when she said that, I thought of Dolittle cause Emma Thompson was in it as Polly the Parrot 🦜
