A Variety Of The Greatest Acting Performances From The Very Interesting Actor, Matt Damon

By Adam Hart


This article will focus on the films of Matt Damon. Damon is a native of Boston, Massachusetts and has been starring in great movies since the early 1990s. At such an early stage of his career, it is amazing that he has already won an Oscar. What is even more amazing is that it wasn't for acting. I have no doubts that one of those awards will come his way soon enough.

Let's discuss some of Matt Damon's best films so far in his career.

The first movie on this list that I will mention is The Talented Mr. Ripley. Matt Damon stars as the title character that is sent on a mission to bring back a spoiled rich boy, played by Jude Law. This movie is better than I make it sound.

Another awesome Matt Damon movies is Good Will Hunting. There is little doubt that this is the film that put both Damon and Ben Affleck on the map. In fact, they also wrote the screenplay together, for which they received an Academy Award.

Another film that definitely makes the list for me is Ocean's Eleven. I didn't enjoy Ocean's Twelve and Ocean's Thirteen as much as the first, but the first one was fantastic. This was a well executed story.

One film that certainly makes the list for me is The Bourne Identity. This first film in the now trilogy of Bourne movies sets the pace for the saga. Although Jason Bourne cannot remember what happened to him in this movie, he knows he can kick some butt.

The final movie that makes the cut for me is Green Zone. This movie is similar to the Bourne movies in quite a couple ways, but is definitely more of a politically based film.

It is clear after going through his movie catalog that Matt Damon has had quite his fair share of great movies.
