Good Will Hunting is a really good Commentary a perfect mix of totally goofing off and giving you interesting and funny stories about making the movie.

Listening to Matt Damon and Ben Affleck is just like an extension of the movie without the Boston accents.Oh yeah Gus Van Sant is there too but Matt and Ben Affleck totally wash him out with their stories of drunkenness and debauchery on and off the set.

Whenever they talk about Minnie Driver, it's a tad akward. I imagine that the commentary for this film was recorded right after Matt and her broke up, so there's some residual weirdness so instead of talking normally about her like they do with everyone else. They over compliment and her work so much that's it's like a guy at a bar really trying to convince you that he and he ex even though they are broken up they are still friends, after awhile you're like, "Ok I get it, enough".

Overall listening to this commentary is really fun. It’s like you’re watching a movie with your friends but they are a lot cooler than you.

*Look out for a great Casey Affleck Story which happens during the bar scene.
