A Wonderful Film!

Rating: 9/10 (19 October 2002)

The first time I saw this film I liked it, but I didn't realize how good it was. After a few more viewings I came to understand how great this film truly is. The story is very interesting and quite entertaining. The cast is excellent and the acting is very good. The comedy is very well done and well placed throughout the film. The only complaint I have about the film is the absurd amount of swearing in the film. I agree that sometimes it is necessary, but there is a truly unnecessary amount of language in the film. But please, don't let that discourage you from seeing the film, it is a very good film.
As I said above, the cast is excellent. Matt Damon pulls off one of his best performances so far in his career. Robin Williams does a fantastic job in this film and definitely deserved his Oscar! Ben Affleck, Minnie Driver, Casey Affleck, Cole Hauser, and Stellan Skarsgard were all excellent supporting cast members!
I would definitely recommend this film, as long as you can deal with the swearing. If you do end up seeing the film, I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. Thanks for reading,
