Good Will Hunting is a dream movie for all!!

Rating: Null/10 (4 October 2011)

I have watched this movie possibly 30 times. Whenever it is on cable I will sit and watch and even finish the lines for some of the characters. I know I am probably bias because of the career path I have chosen (that being a therapist), but this is one of the best movies ever put out in all aspects. Ben Affleck and Matt Damon make their screen writing debut as well as play the lead roles. Damon is so believable as "Will Hunting" that you can't help to feel as though you know him. Another star of this film is Robin Williams who plays "Sean McGuire" the battle scarred therapist that is willing to do anything to help Will find his way through life.
In this film, Will Hunting is a genius who has been dealt the worse hand ever, and he tries to forget his past, when a professor at MIT decides to help him and give him a fighting chance. Ben Affleck who plays Will's best friend "Chuckie" who is just like family to Will and wants nothing more than to see him succeed. The movie is shot on location in South Boston and you are able to see all the grit and grime of this area as well as the "better side of town" when Will meets a girl from Harvard. The girl he meets "Skylar" played by Minnie Driver becomes a climactic character in the story. The soundtrack is amazing with one of the best being the 70's hit "Afternoon Delight". It sets the mood in all scenes and is able to show you all different perspectives.
I would recommend this movie to anyone. It does have some adult situations but I had no problem watching this with my teenage daughter. It is a film that makes you really think about what is important and to live out your dreams. I know I will watch it again and again.
