  From the time when I first sat down and watched Good Will Hunting, it forever impacted my life and easily became my favorite movie. Directed by Gus Van Sant, it stars Matt Damon as Will Hunting, a janitor at MIT who can't realize his own potential, and Robin Williams as Sean Maguire, who is Will's therapist, and someone who forces him to grow up. A story that is realistic and heartbreaking, Good Will Hunting is a must-watch for everyone.

I recently saw the new Marvel movie, Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings and was very pleased with the way the movie turned out.  It had a lot of great action scenes and a new style of fighting that really hasn't been seen in the MCU before.  The movie also has a brief cameo from a Marvel character that hasn't been seen in a long time and it is fun to watch especially in the setting in which this character is brought back onto the screen.  Another great thing about this movie is the callbacks it makes to previous Marvel movies, and how it connects to old stories or plots from previous movies.  Overall, I really enjoyed this movie and am excited to see how it expands the MCU in the future.  Rating: 8/10 - The movie had great action scenes, camera work, special effects, callbacks to old movies, and was just fun to watch in general.  Although, there are some parts of the movie that are I am skeptical of how they will fit into the other movies.
