Roald Dahl's "Matilda the Musical"
Standing up for what's right, she's met with miraculous results. She takes charge of her own destiny.

# The Story of Alisa Alisa (Sharifah Rose) is frequently a victim of her mother Sofea's (Zila Bakarin) anger ever since her father Razak (Khairil Anwar Aman) abandoned them without a word several years ago. Sofea was forced to seek a dissolution of marriage, resulting in a third talak (divorce). Alisa's family was shattered and Sofea's demeanor changed drastically. Sofea became quick-tempered and began controlling the lives of her unmarried children. Sofea's relationship with her parents, Bahar and Aminah, also became strained as Sofea blamed them as the main reason Razak abandoned her. Bahar began showing signs of forgetfulness and sometimes could not take care of himself. After being diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease, love notes written by him in Jawi script became the most precious memories for Aminah. Alisa admires her grandfather and grandmother's unwavering love that remained steadfast despite being tested by various incidents.

This film manages to be simultaneously topical and timeless. Without being preachy, it highlights society’s flawed relationship with tech; insights into the complex ideas of family struggle are expertly dispersed among a perfectly paced and balanced story.
Overall, “Dark Fate” is a run-of-the-mill flick. Together, Reyes and Davis have excellent chemistry, but their characters’ story is nothing new, lacking surprise and deep emotion. During the middle points, the film drags considerably, and when the action hits, it feels consistently tight, eliminating the rhythm and fluidity of conflicts.
Like Fourth of July fireworks, the film Honey Don’t is colorful and fun to look at, delivering many bangs (sex and guns!) for your buck before quietly fading out.
"Hustlers" returns power to groups that are traditionally deprived of it: women, the working class, and sex workers.
The gentle, emotional nuances of Evan’s coming-of-age story would have been so beneficial to have incorporated into the life of a POC character. Showing a Black, Asian or Latino young man that is afforded the space to be vulnerable, flawed and sensitive while driving a compelling and widely-loved narrative would have been a game changer.
