Good Will Hunting
Intelligence Is Not An Excuse To Be Rude
Going into this movie, I’d already heard from a lot of people that it was supposed to be great. But for the first 90 minutes, I honestly wasn’t convinced. It felt just “okay” to me. The pacing wasn’t bad, but the story didn’t seem to be going anywhere, and I found myself checking the time.
The last 30 minutes, though, were completely different. That’s when everything finally clicked. The performances really stood out, and it felt like something meaningful was finally happening. I especially loved the dialogue between Matt Damon and Ben Affleck, as well as the scenes between Matt Damon and Robin Williams. The moment when Sean tells Will, “It’s not your fault,” really hit me. That scene made me appreciate the story on a much deeper level.
Up until then, I saw Will as just a rude guy that everyone excused because he was intelligent. But by the end, everything came together, and the story finally made sense to me. Now I get it.
