They are both fantastic actors. Was wondering what everyone thought of their performance in this film?

I thought they were both terrible

Leo is way better and there's more depth to his character.

The best actor in the film is Jack.

Leo, no question. Ridiculous that Wahlberg was nominated but he wasn't.

Both sucked

I liked martin Sheen the most in this film of bad acting

I cannot ever imagine thinking that Matt Damon was the best actor in any film. Not a fan.

I thought Alec Baldwin was pretty good here even though his character is naïve as hell.

I'm in the minority that thought Marky Mark stole the show. Yes, even from Jack.

Both were phenomenal in the film but if I had to pick a favorite performance it would be Leo.
