A Story Showing that the Best Special Effect is Real Human Emotion

Rating: 10/10 (9 April 2006)

When I first saw Good Will Hunting, I thought it was a remarkable movie. It instantly went to my top ten list. But "why is this movie so great?," you may ask. Well its the story about a mathematical genius who lives in a "safe world where no one challenges him." Every night he gets drunk with his buddies. One day he gets caught by the police for fighting and would have been sentenced to jail time, if it were not for an MIT professor who knows of his abilities and gets the judge to release. The conditions are that he must see a therapist and meet with Professor Lambough, the MIT professor, weekly to work on math studies. Will meets his match with a therapist (Robin Williams) and together they become friends and find solutions to life's hardest problems. A great movie, the best I've ever seen.
