A story about an unusually intelligent young man whose past family life is having strong, negative effects on his present. His gift becomes known to a professor at MIT, who hires him on as an assistant. His violent and untrusting nature, however, strains this partnership, and the professor has him see a series of psychiatrists. GET THE MOVIE!!!!

  Even better the second time
Review created: 12/06/07

I saw this movie many years ago when it first came out and it truly made an impact on me. From the streets and a world of poverty comes Matt Damon's character who's intelligence far surpasses his years. As he learns more and more about himself from his sessions with his therapist (Robin Williams) his character develops into a lost and sympathetic character...the opposite of our initial impression of him as a punk. Robin Williams shows his propensity to shine as a dramatic character and the true talent of Matt Damon and Ben Affleck shines through in this movie. ****

I bought Good Will Hunting because it's a good movie and when I got it, it was in average condition. The dvd had some scratches on it. I thought that it would be in flawless condition and I was disappointed that it was not. Although there was no skips or freezing during the movie.

A thought-provoking film but too depressing for me. Well-acted and put together. If you don't mind depressing topics this is a good film.

I love the movie. I think it's very inspiring. Matt and Robin are superb in there performances. I would have rather seen an alternate leading lady but that wasn't a big deal. I always watch it when it's on t.v. and decided that it was worthy of adding to my movie library.

The professor calls on an old college buddy (Robin Williams) to help out. To the surprise of both, they both benefit from these sessions.

This DVD was purchased as part of a requirement for my counseling class. The movie is great; however, despite the DVD being purchased new, through no fault of the seller, it is a bit defective (ie. freezes periodically throughout the movie). I won the bid at a reasonable price, so I did not feel I should complain.

  Multiple Redemption Provides the Surprises
Review created: 10/11/06

"Good Will Hunting" is one of the best films of this genre. Redemption films tend to be over-sentimental, over-moralistic, or simply over the top. Thanks to great performances from Robin Williams and Matt Damon, this avoids most of the obvious traps. Gus van Sant directs the film with occasional subtlety and many deft touches. The viewer is never really in doubt about the outcome; it is the multiple redemption that gives the story extra and surprising punch.

Will Hunting, an emotionally challenged mathematical genius from South Boston spends his time drinking, fighting and generally challenging authority wherever he finds it. Perverse vanity cannot prevent him from completing equations displayed as challenges by a professor at MIT. Brought together with a psychiatrist (Robin Williams), he moves from confrontation to passive resistance to acceptance of his own emotions and needs. The interplay between the two provides the emotional backbone to the story, while the interplay of his mathematical facility and his encounters with the professor with the grinding dullness of the jobs he works provides the intellectual to-and-fro. For love interest he uses his mind to attract a girl at Harvard (Minnie Driver) and uses his emotional inadequacy to maintain a distance.

Self discovery at the hands of the psychiatrist is predictable but cleverly presented. His conflicts with authority are deftly drawn; the plot works right through to the final interplays between Will and the conflicting elements of his life.

  One of the Best Movies Ever

This movie lives up to the big names that appear in it. It is great to watch Matt Damon and Ben Affleck before they became superstars and Robin Williams is the glue that pieces the whole movie together. It is a must see movie and you will not be dissapointed if you buy.

One word...Classic! This movie is bound to find its way to the top of your movie lists!

A self made genius living in Southie, an irish district of Boston, MA. After a rough childhood of bouncing around abusive foster homes Matt Damon is trying to find his place in the world. This movie touches base of all of lifes trials for a young adult. Robin Williams, a psychiatrist for Damon gives the performance of a lifetime. This movie has the power to change the way you view your own life. With an excellent cast and oscar winning performances Good Will Hunting is a movie you cannot afford to have out of you collection. If you claim to love movies this is a must have!

  A WINNER except for overkill on foul language.

I absolutely love this movie. Minner Driver is absolutely fine in this.
The draw back? Some people just don't know when enough is enough.
We know people cuss, but give it a rest with the "F" word. Sometimes a
well placed "F" adds to the intensity or emotion of a film, but cripes,
after awhile, it's just an "F___ing" distraction and becomes a total annoyance.
This one manages to do that. I still love the movie however and will watch
it over and over.

This movie has a great plot and uncovers much about the human condition. The language can be a little foul at times but there is a method to the madness when it comes to all the profanity. People enjoy seeing into worlds outside there own confines and this is one of the rare movies that can explore genius without being over anylitical. It is well worth your time.

Filled with good "life" messages. My troubled son was able to relate to some of the problems Will was experiencing, and benefited further by the effect Sean, Robin Williams had on him. Robin Williams was most deserving the Oscar he received.

  Good Will Hunting (1997): The Most Brilliant Script Ever Written
Review created: 05/05/05
by: flamepillar -- a member of Epinions

Pros:
Wow, wow, wow to the dialogue. Flawless execution by Damon and Williams.

Cons:
It's all in your head.

Almost any movie, no matter how far away from serious it may be, has at least one good profound moment. The great thing about Good Will Hunting is that the entire thing feels like one big long profound moment. I may be ahead of myself in saying this is the best screenplay ever written, but it's definitely one of the best I've read/seen in my life. Matt Damon plays Will Hunting, a mathematical wizard who doesn't wholly grasp the magnitude of his own power. He is a kid from the streets who drinks with the fellas and maybe picks up a few girls along the way. Now and then, he has found himself...

  Chuckie, It's Hunting Season...*BOOM* Applesauce B*tch!!
Review created: 11/12/05

Pros:
Van Sant's Direction, Script, Locations, Cinematography, Editing, Production, Music, & Cast.

Cons:
Some Predictable Moments in the Film.

In the film industry, it's always hard to get discovered and sometimes it can take years. Two examples in recent years have been the case for Ben Affleck and Matt Damon. Two young struggling actors trying to get acting gigs when in 1992, Matt Damon seemed to hit pay dirt when he landed a huge role in the film School Ties with Brendan Fraser. While his friend Affleck also received a small supporting role in the film, the movie did nothing for Damon and Affleck. Between 1992 and 1996, the two decided to work on a screenplay about a young janitor with a high IQ whose potential is in question by..

  Good Will Hunting, Pimp Brothers
Review created: 02/17/07
by: updateghost-- a member of Epinions and Top Reviewer in Movies

Pros:
Performances. Direction. Story.

Cons:
Script can be tad 'eh.'

Think back to the times of Good Will Hunting. It was 1997. Matt Damon hadn't yet achieved the title of World's Cutest Boy (Other than Brad Pitt). Ben Affleck was almost a respected actor. There was even a connotation of achievement with Robin Williams' name. But the culture has changed. Matt Damon is a household name. Your faithful reviewer is probably the only person on Planet Earth who gives Ben Affleck credit, and Robin Williams' career is a joke. But both then and now, it's still pretty amazing that Ben Affleck and Matt Damon of all people wrote Good Will Hunting's script. By now, you've..

  Good Will Hunting-Elliott Smith's Claim To Fame!
Review created: 06/01/05
by: underdawg -- a member of Epinions

Pros:
Acting, dialogue, Morgan is really funny, music!

Cons:
Not the most original story in the world...but you'll live...

Elliott Smith, folk-rock singer/songwriter wrote the brilliant song Miss Misery for Good Will Hunting which was nominated for an Academy Award (though "My Heart Will Go On" won. How f*cked up is that?). This all happened when Gus van Sant put in some of Smith's songs (including No Name #3, Between The Bars, and Say Yes) and Smith was flattered when he was notified. "He liked the fact that his mother, Bunny, would be able to tell her friends that her son was working on Good Will Hunting rather than living in Portland and recording 'lo-fi albums'."

  I Know You're a Supergenius
Review created: 03/23/04
by: Furie -- a member of Epinions

Pros:
Great script, good performances, witty and wise

Cons:
Overstuffed, somewhat scattershot

Wouldn't it be nice to be able to watch Good Will Hunting and forget about the last seven years of Matt Damon and Ben Affleck in the tabloids? No Bennifer, no Reindeer Games, no Armageddon. Okay, I'm mostly pissed at Ben Affleck for betraying the promises of Dazed and Confused and Chasing Amy. And the promises of this movie, too. Because these two show a lot of chops, both acting-wise and writing-wise (they wrote the script together and won Oscars for their efforts). Together with director Gus Van Sant, they managed to put together a story of a young guy with an extraordinary intelligence who.
