One of the all time greatest

Rating: 10/10 (2 June 2019)

This movie is quite simply amazing. It has a plot that might be known to some: a troubled kid with a lot of potencial, but this movie touches so many important aspects, and does it so well... First of all, it is an absolute delight to see the relationship between Will and Sean develop, it is amazingly well done, totally believable, real... Second of all, the relationship between Will and Skyla: this is one of the best movies in what comes to demonstrating what it is like to be really in love (that initial part when you are absolutely crazy about each other), it happens just like that... Third of all, all the question around what makes a life valuable: an honored job? To be happy? Who's to say? This is what the movie is all about and it develops this question fantastically, with many side stories to it, such as the relationship between Will and his friends and the relationship between the professor and Sean, as well as Will's own life story, which also is very well aborded throughout the movie: a very difficult character to deal with, and they did it brilliantly. Matt Damon was superb, acting as well as writing, Robin Williams was somehow even better, and Ben Affleck made an amazing secundary impact in a hard part. The directors were very well, capturing quite well the love scenes and Will's face towards Skyla, as well as the everlasting tension between Sean and the professor. All, all, all, all so very good. 10/10 because I can't give more. One of the all time greatest movies.
