| Will Hunting (new star Matt Damon, from Francis Ford Coppola's "The
Rainmaker") is the epitome of all of our hopes and dreams. A genius, a
charismatic guy, smart and funny. He's also the worst things in today's
society. An orphan, a victim of abuse, out...more |

a smart-ass. But let s look at the situation seriously: Will is smart enough to

| GOOD WILL HUNTING was to me a very warm-hearted, intelligent and
well-conceived story of a 20-year-old boy, Will Hunting (Damon), whose

| ***1/2 (out of 4) Will Hunting (Matt Damon) is a natural genius. For a movie
character, that's usually a death sentence. It's a trait associated with
what my brother calls "too good for this world" movies, like PHENOMENON or
POWDER. more |

thousands of reasons not to. It's so much easier to just keep on keepin' on in

| Visuals? Maybe. But for every great-looking, meaty movie put out,
there are the BLADE RUNNERs, the TITANICs and the L'AVVENTURAs --
films that may be visually impressive but ultimately unfulfilling due
to a certain lack of substance. more |
