You know you go to the movie store too much when...

the Rogers lady knows who you are and suggests movies to you.

No one is complaining though.

Latest movie you should rent.
Good Will Hunting.
A. Mazing.

Not really a change your life kind of movie. More like a let's watch this movie and admire the good acting.
There's a little saying that's thrown around in our acting classes, we hear it every day of our lives, and it is "maximum emotional involvement". Matt Damon, in this movie, achieved that. Every single scene he is in, I can clearly see exactly what he is fighting for, when he changes tactics to find it, and how hard he is fighting for his objective or objectives. A very talented actor that one.
I love seeing actors branch out and try completely different roles than what they usually do. In this movie, that actor is Robin Williams. He steps out of his comfort of comedy and into a very serious role. And impressively pulling it off fantastically. His character has a lot of emotional past to deal with and to allow the audience to see the burden it causes him is difficult. Robin Williams is brilliant in this role.

I find it's more of a want-to-get-up-and-do-something after watching it sort of movie. Love it.
