The Onion Reviews ‘Good Will Hunting’

'Good Will Hunting': A story of a protagonist overcoming obstacles in order to attain a goal.

[RandomUerName]

Unquestionably one of the films of a decade

[InnocuousRemark]

Out of all of the movie reviews I've seen, this will always be, to me, one of them.

[TotalBlackout]

I've always been told Good Will Hunting is a classic, but until now I never understood why. Thanks Peter.

This is like reading a movie essay by someone who didn’t actually watch the movie. 😂

[Master_Conner]

The onion is embracing the “one of the movies of all time“ meme and I love it.

Favourite scene was when the protagonist slowly stares up at the camera with a side smirk and whispers, “oh yeah, it’s goodwill hunting time” and starts healing mentally and therapeutically.

This was a wonderful movie. I remember when I went to see it at the theater. I think one of the best things about it was when they turned off all the lights in the theater and the movie came on it was very bright so I could see it. Also, it had sound that actually matched the people that were talking which was wonderful. I also like how sometimes the people got upset but at times they were laughing. I would be wrong to not add the fact that when it was over the screen got dark and we didn't see any more. More movie should be like this.

Great review as always. When I saw Good Will Hunting I was worried that a bunch of tiny people had become trapped inside of my television. Had I seen this beforehand, I probably wouldn't have broken a very expensive flatscreen with a baseball bat.

What I love most about this review is that it describes the aspects of a work.

[EyequeenCasskulla]

I like how he mentioned the “costumes” as if there was an option to just have the actors naked in the movie.

[ZCherish]

This is what I pay my monthly subscription for. Quality, in-depth review.

Good will hunting is definetly a movie

[UnwovenSleeve]

I'm so surprised that this is one of the films that has music, it's so rare these days to so a story in a movie, let alone paired with music. The fact that they managed to have actual actors as well is such an accomplishment.

[GlaurungTheGreat]

I'll be honest: the fact that it has direction, a plot, and acting already puts it in about the top half of all movies.

[champigranja]

I hadn't realized how deep the interaction between the main character and the others was.

[TheSyliman]

The return of the greatest movie critic of the modern era. Peter Rosenthal truly is a great moviewatcher

[tylerh]

Peter really captures what's important about this film. 1.That it is a film and 2. That it has the components of a film. This review truly has it all: a beginning, a middle and an end.

[SdKfz-gqbh]

ah yes, a protagonist who does things to get to his goal. my favorite type of movie

[matadorlksh]

This review has everything that is needed in a review and makes me feel exactly what I should feel and know after hearing or watching a good review about a film that should have everything that a film should have which should be reviewed

[TheChefCain]

This is definitely one of the movie reviews of all time.
