On paper Good Will Hunting appears so simple, perhaps it is, but the specific calculations used to create this incredibly human film are what make it so special and so effective. Matt Damon and Ben Affleck put their heart and soul, not only into the wonderful script but their moving performances as well. And for the former, it’s a prickly cool guy to empathetic real guy transformation. But the impressive performances don’t stop there, as Robin Williams tinges his usual comedic timing with a touch of melancholy, creating a character that pops up pretty late in the runtime but who takes hold for every scene after that. As does Minnie Driver who elevates the cliche girlfriend into a psychological roadblock Matt Damon must either face or ignore. Elliott Smith’s warm soundtrack perfectly matches the tone of 1990s Boston and the twinge of change brewing within the characters. Its basic plotting taken into account, it’s Good Will Hunting’s character study and emotional tale of choice, opportunity, and life that lift it far above similar dramas.
