Good Will Hunting is a movie that displays the reality and struggles of growing up. Will (the protagonist) is a young adult with a lot of struggles, a long history, and trauma, but he plays it off by being a troublemaker. When Will gets in…

Conventionally made by a director who knows how to make superior unconventional films--above all, My Own Private Idaho--and really quite tedious. I lasted for more than an hour, by which time I just could not care what happened, having…

The Oscar-winning story is about a mathematical genius and the psychotherapist who helps him get on track with his life. Matt Damon and Robin Williams star, with Minnie Driver. Directed by Gus Van Sant, chunks of the movie seem very bogus,…

During a session with his therapist, played by Robin Williams, Will tells a great joke about an incident that occurred between the airplane pilot and a stewardess during his flight.

I do not see an Oscar here. "F" bombs galore. Took me a long time to finally watch this debacle. Was good to see Robin Williams again.

Good Will Hunting is responsible for many iconic pop culture moments, while also being an incredibly moving story that represents realistic characters and struggles. The cast is unexpectedly amazing and deliver outstanding performances,…

This 1997 movie still holds up because of the universality of ideas in the original screenplay (available at VPL) written by Matt Damon and Ben Affleck. The original screenplay gets 5 stars and this movie 4 stars. Really good lines in the…

Gus van Sant, over a 30 year career in film, has made himself the spokesman of the marginal people in our society. My Own Private Idaho, To Die For, Don't Worry, He won't get far on Foot, and others have made his reputation. While I…

Brilliant, engaging drama, Good Will Hunting is a near perfect work of drama that boasts impressive performances, direction and a great story. The cast here is well chosen, and the film is terrific in the way that it tells a powerful,…

I could spend some time comparing this film to Gus Van Sant's later Finding Forrester. This was the first time I've seen Good Will Hunting, but I saw Finding Forrester when it was first released in theaters. That being said, my heart was…

I enjoyed this movie overall, but it moved at a slow pace for the first half. I really loved Robin Williams in this movie, he got an Oscar for his role in the film and deserved it. His scenes with Matt Damon were my most favourite scenes…

Before Damon and Affleck became super famous, these two former Massachusetts neighbors not only starred in the film, they also wrote the Oscar winning screenplay. Gus Van Sant got an Oscar nom for best director, Robin Williams won the…

Strong characterization is present throughout this tale of an overlooked math genius with behavioural problems discovered by a star professor while having legal problems, and assigned to an unorthodox therapist. Each character in different…

A really good movie with a message to always seek our fullest potential. Filled with foul language and behaviors so definitely not for children. At times it was emotional not only because of the material but the fact that the amazing…
