Personal Opinion:
If Matt Damon, DiCaprio, in a movie, Actors like Jack Nicholson act together, and if Martin Scorsese is the director, then the movie has to be a masterpiece. This is the first line of crime-drama genre film, thriller lovers can watch the movie in one breath. Every actor has performed to the best of his ability. Leonardo came out of his chocolate-boy look with this movie. Jack Nicholson looked like a real gangster. The ending of the movie has been very surprising. The movie won Oscars in four categories, including 'Best Film' and 'Best Director' that year.
Something About Matt Damon:
I first saw Matt Damon in this movie and fell in love with his acting. Since then I have been watching his best films one after another like Good Will Hunting, The Martian, Ford v Ferrari etc. All in all, I became a fan of Matt Demon just by watching this movie and I am still a big fan of him. He had a dream of winning an Oscar for Best Actor, although that hope has not yet been fulfilled. His next project undefined Good luck with Christopher Nolan's film Oppenheimer.
