How Do You Like Them Apples?

I had this review on one of my other blogs; it's more relavent over here, so I'm reposting it for your reading pleasure. Thanks! :)

This post is about the movie Good Will Hunting. If you've not seen the movie yet then think about the title of the movie: Good Will Hunting. What do you think it is about? Something related to hunting? Good will? Will? Good? Mercy killing? :)

Good Will Hunting is a story about a cocky, respect-for-none, mathematical-genius called Will Hunting played by Matt Damon (Ha ha, it's a name). It's a story about a man who doesn't know what he wants to do in his life. I'm sure many of us have the same problem. Anyway, he works as a janitor at MIT where he secretly solves difficult math problems which only a few in the world could do. As a typical dude, he hangs out with his friends doing all kinds of bullshit like: beating up people, hitting on girls, etc.

Then he meets a guy called Sean which eventually changes Hunting's life forever. Sean is played by Robin Williams who won an Oscar for this excellent role. Undoubtebly, he's the best actor in this film and one of the finest performances I've ever seen on screen. The best parts of the movie are the scenes where Matt Damon and Robin Williams sit in a room and chat with each other telling their stories.

This movie also has some funny dialogues, like this little conversation between Matt Damon and Ben Affleck:

Affleck: Hey asshole?
Damon: What bitch?
Affleck: Happy birthday.

But my favorite funny-dialogue was when Matt Damon gets the phone number of a girl which another guy he argued with in the restaurant was trying so hard. After getting the phone number, he goes to the guy he argued with and says:

Damon: Do you like Apples?
The other guy: Hmm.. Yeah.
Damon: Well guess what? I got her phone number, now, how do you like them apples?

I don't want to give away the dialogues between Matt Damon and Robin Williams because that's the best part. They are funny; they are intellectual; they'll make you think about your life; and most of all, they'll have an impact on you. The film will not fail to ask the question of what is that you want to do in your life. I promised I won't give away any of the other dialogues, but I'll just use one of them now to end this post: Time's up.

Verdict: 4 out of 5 stars with a score of 7/10. Two thumbs up to Robin Williams.
