Matt Damon Brings 'The Informant!' to Venice!

Matt Damon and his wife Luciana attend the photo call for his new movie, The Informant!, at the Palazzo del Casino during the 66th Venice Film Festival on Monday (September 7) in Venice, Italy.

In the movie, the 38-year-old actor plays agribusiness firm executive Mark Whitacre, who labels himself Agent 0014, “because I’m twice as smart as James Bond.”

Variety has a review of Damon‘s performance in the movie: “Damon is in very sharp form in his fifth film with Soderbergh. The thesp makes Mark brazen in his conviction that he’s always right and unremorseful about his fabrications, but never in a superior, hubristic manner; as is slowly revealed, he’s always been able to rationalize any alteration of reality that served his purposes, and even when faced with his own deviousness, he never doubts that, “I’m the good guy in all this.”
