The Martian (2015)
The Martian (2015)
2015 | Sci-Fi
Great film
This is Ridley Scott's best film in years. Considering it's about one man stranded on Mars, it's surprisingly interesting, full of humour and intrigue. Matt Damon puts in a great performance holding a lot of the film on his own, although the supporting cast are fantastic too. It has a really good soundtrack and is also very close to the original book by Andy Weir. One of the best films of 2015.
  
The Talented Mr. Ripley (1999)
The Talented Mr. Ripley (1999)
1999 | Drama, Mystery

"My favorite movie is The Talented Mr. Ripley. “Tommy, Tommy, Tommy, Tommy — Tommy.” Philip Seymour Hoffman was crazy. Jude Law was just great. I don’t like what he did, but it was just the whole running-around-Europe-loving-jazz [thing]. That was very interesting to me. He didn’t want to do his father’s business. He just wanted to love jazz. He was free enough to do it and be content. I think Matt Damon was very interesting. Just to be so conniving and to steal identities and money. Jude Law was so naive for a while and then he realized Damon was a moocher. It was kind of weird how quickly someone could be deceived when they’re caught up in their own world."

Jason Bourne (2016)
Jason Bourne (2016)
2016 | Action, Drama
Matt Damon returns to the role of the amnesiac Jason Bourne - following the underwhelming The Bourne Legacy - now living in hiding and prize-fighting for a living.

However, when ex-CIA operative Nicky Parson's tracks him down (Julia Stiles, and I was rather surprised at one scene featuring her!), he's pulled back into the fray, uncovering more details about his past along the way in a plot that takes in (takes on?) the concept of Government Surveillance.
