Amazon.co.uk Review:
Robin Williams won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor, and actors Matt Damon and Ben Affleck nabbed one for Best Original Screenplay, but the feel-good hit Good Will Hunting triumphs because of its gifted director, Gus Van Sant. The unconventional director (My Own Private Idaho, Drugstore Cowboy) saves a script marred by vanity and clunky character development by yanking soulful, touching performances out of his entire cast (amazingly, even one by Williams that's relatively schtick-free). Van Sant pulls off the equivalent of what George Cukor accomplished for women's melodrama in the 1930s and 40s: He's crafted an intelligent, unabashedly emotional male weepie about men trying to find inner-wisdom.
Matt Damon stars as Will Hunting, a closet maths genius who ignores his gift in favour of nightly boozing and fighting with South Boston buddies (co-writer Ben Affleck among them). While working as a university janitor, he solves an impossible calculus problem scribbled on a hallway blackboard and reluctantly becomes the prodigy of an arrogant MIT professor (Stellan Skarsgård). Damon only avoids prison by agreeing to see psychiatrists, all of whom he mocks or psychologically destroys until he meets his match in the professor's former childhood friend, played by Williams. Both doctor and patient are haunted by the past and, as mutual respect develops, the healing process begins. The film's beauty lies not with grand climaxes, but with small, quiet moments. Scenes such as Affleck's clumsy pep talk to Damon while they drink beer after work, or any number of therapy session between Williams and Damon offer poignant looks at the awkward ways men show affection and feeling for one another. --Dave McCoy

- Superb film
Before they were quite so famous, two of the main cast of this superb film gave the performances that would kick their acting careers into the million dollar market.
The film itself will forever be a classic. Its simple and easy to relate to plot has you laughing, crying and remembering your own youth.
The main plot and character are a work of genius and really has your total attention through the whole film. It expands your mind to the further possibles of life and also those missed ... Read More

- An enlighting film
The film depicts an extraordinary clever boy's life. He works in manual jobs but has interest in science especially mathematics. He reads a lot in public libraries and reaches a level comparable to university graduates in every subject including history, economics etc. His genius is clearly revelaed when he proves various theorems that bewilders university professors. During the film he faces though challenges concerning his future social and personal life. Will he be the scientist that everybody wants ... Read More
Rating: - Good Will Hunting
Matt Damon and Robin Williams star in this remarkable (unique?) film about Will Hunting, a young man who is both vulnerable, unsuccessful, unrecognised and emotionally troubled, despite being intellectually brilliant; Williams plays the therapist who Will slowly opens up to as the story unfolds. Both Damon and Williams play their respective roles with a depth of emotion and absolutely convincing, touching brilliance that I don't believe would be inappropriate to call the best acting I've ever witnessed ...

Rating: - one of a kind emotional drama
Matt Damon (Oceans series) stars as Will Hunting, a mathematic genius who has emotional problems and is sent to see a therapist.
Damon and Ben Affleck (Paycheck) won the Oscar for best writing for this wonderful drama and is no surprise when you consider all the effort that you take into account.
it is a marvelous story about a young man with emotional difficulties but a talent for maths. Damon plays this part extremley well with a great passion and i have to say that it is his ... Read More
Rating: - A nice film and a good evenings entertainment
Will Hunting (Matt Damon) cleans' floors, has one hobby - going out for a drink with his friends (including Ben Affleck), and bizarrely appears to be a do-it-yourself maths genius. He solves an incredibly complex maths challenge put on the MIT notice board, and is more or less taken under the wing of the resident maths professor. Will accepts to see a psychiatrist in order to avoid jail, but he is very widely read and quite sharp so he spends his time provoking and mocking each one in turn. Finally the MIT ... Read More
