He added that he thought Snowden seemed like a "conscientious guy."

You'd think Damon would know a good performance when he sees one. So, one assumes, he feels that Snowden is entirely without artifice.

He described the revelations as "pretty shocking."

And he declared: "On balance, I think that it's a great thing that he did."
