Jocks […] turned Gus Van Sant’s shallow, self-absorbed Good Will Hunting into the dude movie of the moment, proving that there are times when it’s alright for a guy to cry like a little bitch…preferably when women aren’t actually the ones who bring down their defenses.
— Eric Henderson & Jake Cole (Slant Magazine)
Synopsis: Headstrong yet aimless, Will Hunting has a genius-level IQ but chooses to work as a janitor at MIT. When he secretly solves highly difficult graduate-level math problems, his talents are discovered by Professor Gerald Lambeau, who decides to help the misguided youth reach his potential. When Will is arrested for attacking a police officer, Professor Lambeau makes a deal to get leniency for him if he gets court-ordered therapy. Eventually, therapist Dr. Sean Maguire helps Will confront the demons that are holding him back.
