So I rewatched it with my daughter and she loved it, for me it was even better than i remembered. Robin Williams is so good in it but his character has such a sadness about him that i feel might have been close to how Robin felt alot of times himself, maybe that's why on this watch it felt more emotional?

Anyway, great film, great writing by Matt Damon and Ben Affleck too.

Loved, loved Loved it

9.5/10

I think my main problem before watching this film is I despise Ben Aflleck so was not looking forward to the fact he starred in it, let alone co wrote it. Thankfully he was hardly in the movie and lets be honest Damon probably wrote most of the film so I am just going to pretend Ben Afleck had nothing to do with the movie.

Overall it was a good film. Williams, Damon, Driver and Skarsgard were all great, and it was nice to see Williams in a serious role and different from his usually comedy parts. I was intrigued by most of the characters; strangely I liked Skarsgard and Williams more together and Damon and Driver together more than Damon and Williams characters.

I liked it and Damon did a decent job on the script, but I found myself getting bored towards the end,plus with the fact Ben Affleck (his character had no purpose at all in this movie) was in it I rate it a bit lower - 3/5

I thought it was ok, but I didn't really enjoy it overall. There were some good moments (my favourite scene was probably the emotional one between Will and Skylar in the bedroom) but overall I found it slightly boring. I can appreciate a lot of the complexities in it, but I was never really intruiged, and I just didn't care enough about Will or most of the other characters.

I enjoyed Robin Williams a lot though, he really was an incredible actor and I'm glad I've seen this film just to see his performance in it. It's probably one of the best performances/characterisations I've seen, it's just that overall the film wasn't really for me. I'll give it 6/10.

It was kind of the other way round for me. I preferred the last half of the film to the first half. I was actually tempted to give up halfway through but I kept going because I wanted to see Williams' full performance. (And you're not alone with the Affleck hate, I don't know why but I can't stand him haha!)

I loved that bit :joker:

This is the first time i've seen this film and i have to admit i was transfixed from the opening scene to the ending, it is a brilliant film and i have to admit that i cried at the part where Sean was telling Will that it wasn't his fault, my heart felt like it were breaking. I felt so sad for Sean as it was apparent that he's quite clearly not come to terms with the death of his wife, i loved how he spoke with so much love and adoration for his wife and the fact he wouldn't change a thing with his life. I felt that in a sense Will helped Sean with his grief, just as Sean helped Will move on. You understand at the beginning of the film that Will has suffered trauma in his childhood and it becomes apparent just how much he was abused as the film goes on, Damon was outstanding playing the part of Will. Just as Williams was outstanding playing the part of Sean. I also got teary when Afflecks character went to pick Will up and he wasn't there #end of an era. What i loved most about this film is the outstanding acting, my favourite scenes were between Williams and Damon. They were intense. It also made me feel sad knowing that we won't get to see the amazing Robin Williams in anymore films:( 10/10

I wouldn't call Good Will Hunting a classic, decent film maybe, but not classic.

It's not a film I could watch over and over again, I've seen it once, and don't intend to watch it again.

Most reviews on here so far are spot on about the stand-out parts of the film, the main one being Williams performance which is fantastic.

Gremlins :hee:
