Every Matt Damon Movie Ranked Worst To Best

15. Contagion (2011)

The Martian Matt Damon
Warner Bros. Pictures

There are many storylines running through Steven Soderbergh's timely drama Contagion, but it is Damon's role that sits at the emotional centre of the film.

More vulnerable than ever, Damon here plays a grieving husband and father in the wake of deadly virus, as the world succumbs to the effects of the pandemic.

The multi-narrative structure is sublimely achieved, and Damon is heartbreaking in the lead role, making Contagion one of those films destined to stay with you long after the credits have rolled.
