She's so spectacular one day we'll see her winning awards as she grows. I normally do care for children's movies but I wanted to watch it again right after. It was a really well made movie and the talent of the kids is incredible. We could see the amount of work they have put in.

She is just a wonderful young girl. So talented, modest and natural... loved Matilda the musical!

This is my favourite interview to watch ! She is so very talented young girl and when she played Matilda in Matilda Musical she smashed it!

[rafaybobby]

[indianagrace]

Lovely young lady - so nice most of interview, she focuses her admiration for others. She's brilliant in the movie.

[nellyville]

Happy to see the whole family is there please protect her and all those amazing children in these movies.

[DaniellaPark]

She is so talented and down to earth. Such a lovely young lady there. Parents did a great job there. Unlike some kids who come to talk show and be so rude.

[denisefreitas]

Alisha is lovely and talented! She's amazing in the movie!

[irenes]

This movie was amazing and the ending made me cry. It's very rare that I cry during a movie.

[JohnDoe-vjyy]

She is REALLY a very smart, well educated, modest and down to earth girl, with already a beautiful personality!!!
Great to see her family supporting her!
Alisha...you are a wonderful young Lady...and I wish you ALL THE BEST on the way to becoming a GREAT MOVIE-STAR!!!

[AnEnglishGentleman]

She clearly got the part because she is talented but humble. Whatever ‘it’ is, she has it in spades. Fingers crossed she remains so blissfully unaffected…

[NewCityMedia]

Wnat a delightful and talented girl! She surely deserves every accolade coming her way!

[jonnypapa]

Wow! i actually just finished watching "Roald Dahl's Matilda the Musical" in my school and although some of my cassmates thought it was a boring movie i personally think it was great and the way she acted and everything it was perfect, i hope she has a successful career.

[PikaLink]

To me reading in school was always a punishment. Movies and videogames, visual media, was where it was at... and still is. That said, although I watched the Danish dub because I went to see the Danish play and therefore wanted to hear all the Danish songs again, Alisha, even if it weren't her words coming out of her mouth, she still did an amazing job.

[mistymane]

I can imagine her growing up to be as famous and loved as Emma Watson 🥰 she’s so down to earth and sweet and has incredible intelligence and talent!

[viaaini]

Alisha is so talented on her age ❤ I love her in the movie and want to watch her again and again ❤

[crystalpixelmcneice]

I just was in the cinema today watching Matilda the musical I ❤ it

[nikowacofer]

[peppermintmocha]

Alisha is just amazing. Both in Matilda the Musical and in real life!
