Matt Damon movies available on 4K Blu-ray, ranked by transfer quality.
dir. Kevin Smith
S-Tier Umbrella Entertainment 4K. Kevin Smith's religious comedy. Umbrella has the 4K after it was hard to find on disc for years.
Umbrella Entertainment · 4K + Blu-ray
dir. Steven Soderbergh
S-Tier Warner Bros. 4K. Soderbergh's heist film, and the HDR is really good. Soderbergh is meticulous with digital tools but lets his older films look like film on disc, which collectors appreciate. The trilogy 4K set makes a good gift.
Warner Bros. · 4K + Blu-ray
dir. Christopher Nolan
S-Tier Universal 4K with a perfect 5.0 score. Oppenheimer sold out in one week, which prompted a Variety article about why retailers were pulling physical media while discs were selling like this. The IMAX scenes that fill the full screen are the reason to own the disc over digital, since the streaming version crops them. Nolan films consistently drive 4K sales more than anything else.

In the year 2159, two classes of people exist: the very wealthy who live on a pristine man-made space station called Elysium, and the rest, who live on an overpopulated, ruined Earth. Secretary Rhodes, a hard line government official, will stop at nothing to enforce anti-immigration laws and preserve the luxurious lifestyle of the citizens of Elysium. That doesn’t stop the people of Earth from trying to get in, by any means they can. When unlucky Max is backed into a corner, he agrees to take on a daunting mission that, if successful, will not only save his life, but could bring equality to these polarized worlds.

A-Tier Disney 4K. Matt Damon and Christian Bale racing at Le Mans. The race photography works well in HDR.
Walt Disney Studios · 4K + Blu-ray
dir. Paul Greengrass
A-Tier Arrow Video 4K. The fifth Bourne film and the weakest of the Matt Damon entries. The whole Bourne 4K set has a problem with the first film's transfer, which was pulled from an old HD master with heavy noise reduction and actually looks worse than the Blu-ray. The later films are fine. The set goes on GRUV's 2-for-$22 USD deals regularly.
Arrow Video · 4K + Blu-ray
A-Tier Warner Bros. 4K. The third Ocean's, and someone flagged the transfer for heavy DNR and overblown HDR highlights.
A-Tier Warner Bros. 4K. The least popular Ocean's film with no relevant collector discussion about the transfer.
dir. Martin Scorsese
To take down South Boston's Irish Mafia, the police send in one of their own to infiltrate the underworld, not realizing the syndicate has done likewise. While an undercover cop curries favor with the mob kingpin, a career criminal rises through the police ranks. But both sides soon discover there's a mole among them.
dir. Ridley Scott
King Charles VI declares that Knight Jean de Carrouges settle his dispute with his squire, Jacques Le Gris, by challenging him to a duel.
dir. Doug Liman
D-Tier Universal 4K. An early 4K release that hasn't aged well. The Bourne series was shot on film with a lot of handheld, and the transfer doesn't do much with it.

Rounders has been on collector wishlists for years, and the 4K ask never goes away. The Rewatchables did a live episode, steelbook people have wanted one since at least 2021, and it comes up in pretty much every "what still needs a proper release" conversation. Shot on film with dark interiors and neon-lit poker rooms, the photography would really benefit from an HDR grade. 88 Films has a limited edition Blu-ray coming in May, which is the best way to own it right now.
