10) The Legend Of Bagger Vance - Sadly a fictional tale, but a tremendous story about a down-and-out golfer trying to recover his game for the match of his life and this mysterious stranger Bagger Vance (brilliantly played by Will Smith) aids him by being his caddy.
There are some terrific lines in this film and it shows the mental side of golf and is a truly inspiring film.
9) The Talented Mr. Ripley - A quite regularly forgotten film but one of Damon's most underrated performances. Alongside Jude Law, Gwyneth Paltrow and Cate Blanchett, Damon takes the lead role and makes it his own.
As a young underachiever who is told to retrieve a spoiled millionaire, but ends up taking extreme measure. This is a surprisingly tense thriller that never gets mentioned. I hope people now go and watch this.
8) Ocean's Eleven - One of the very few re-makes that has bettered the original. This tremendously thrilling heist movie has great flow, lots of tense moments, witty humor and a great ensemble cast to go with it. Even the powerhouses George Clooney, Brad Pitt and Julia Roberts, Damon still competes well with him in his own way.
It is has a great mix of just about, everything. It appeals to everyone and is great film to kick back and relax.
7) Ponyo - Not a very well known role, but one that deserves to be.
Since all Studio Ghibli films were endorsed by Disney.Every film is now being dubbed and voiced by many stars. For Damon, he plays Koichi, the father of a five year-old boy who build a friendship with a goldfish called Ponyo, who is wanting to become human.
6) The Bourne Supremacy - Damon returns as Jason Bourne and continues to be on the run. After returning to the CIA, a botched operation has found Bourne wrongly seen as the enemy.
It is the beginning of a terrific series of thrilling crime action.
5) The Bourne Ultimatum - His third appearance as the tenacious Jason Bourne as he continues to try and find about his past whilst dodging CIA officials and agents during a new assassination program out to hunt him down.
Director Paul Greengrass continues to prove how well he can direct action. It is tense throughout and comes to a thrilling finale.
4) Good Will Hunting - A very successful film from the late 1990's and one of the few famous Robin Williams films that has him in a serious role. A story about a janitor working at MIT that has a gift for mathematics and finds help from a psychologist to find his purpose in life.
It is compelling viewing and makes you question yourself and make you drive to do more challenging ambitions.
3) Interstellar - Despite being initially seen as a surprise cameo, Damon's character of Dr. Mann manages to be an important minor role in Christopher Nolan's sci-fi epic.
It sees a team of explorers travel through a wormhole in space in an attempt to ensure humanity's survivial while the Earth suffers in the gradual loss of food supplies.
2) Saving Private Ryan - Playing Private Ryan, Damon is once again teamed up with a stellar line-up.
Directed by Steven Spielberg, this modern WWII epic brings a great blend of emotions at the front line even during the most brutal of action scenes.
1) The Departed - My favorite of the Martin Scorsese gangster films and his most successful after picking up Best Picture at the Oscars.
With actors such as DiCaprio, Nicholson and Wahlberg, Matt Damon definitely kept up pace with these talented individuals and showed how good he really is. Disguised as a cop helping out a well known criminal figure in the Boston area, his duels with DiCaprio have become legendary in film history.
17) Jason Bourne
16) The Last Duel
15) True Grit

13) The Bourne Identity
12) Le Mans' 66
