★★★★½ review by brat pitt on Letterboxd
i avoided watching this movie for so long because of how cheesy all the posters look and you know what ?? it was a huge ball of cheese. BUT it was a REALLY GOOD ball of cheese. like a gourmet ball of gouda or muenster served on a stainless steel platter

★★★★★ review by Ryan Francis on Letterboxd
After hearing of the heartbreaking news involving Robin William's passing, I immediately decided that, by the end of the day, I would be watching either Terry Gilliam's The Fisher King (1991) or Gus Van Sant's Good Will Hunting (1997) - two personal favorite roles from Williams, where his truly exceptional talent in giving brilliant, quite unforgettable dramatic performances really shine. I obviously went with the latter for tonight, and it's as powerful as ever now. I will be revisiting the former very soon.
Rest in peace, Mr. Williams.
