Review of Good Will Hunting (1997) by Stcenterprise . — 04 Sep 2014
I found some of the film far beyond my comprehension when it came to the math or following the stories the characters tell to friends because sometimes they sound too confusing.
I didn't like half of the material in the film. I felt like there was an unnecessary amount of swearing and it made Wills friends seem dumb and it did nothing to add to the films content or story. I think that the swearing in the film dumbed up the characters to make them appear less intelligent. The swearing showed a complete disrespect & disregard for others.
The only thing that made me reconsider his main friend was the speech he gave Will towards the end of the film about he better have a different job than his own friend with the abilities Will just knows through his math.
I felt unsatisfied with the psychology Will received towards the end of the film. I did not feel as though he had solved his personal relationship problems.
I felt that the math, psychology of Wills delima he face from his childhood, and Wills unique way he knew knowledge from math, science, and History did make the movie feel dramatically better and feel intelligent. Some of the lines Matt Damon had to spit out as the character of Will really made me think WOOW that is impressive and made you do some high concentration to follow exactly all that he is saying. Those moments were the part of the film I liked most.
It has some funny moments. I also liked how they explained why Will was hanging with the group of friends he was as a safety net and as a form of loyalty even though they were keeping him away from his full potential in life with his capabilities.
