...much of a stretch. The character walks a fine line between brash confidence and paralyzing fear-and by making this confusion seem genuine, Damon succeeds in winning the audience's sympathy.

...send a voice message or scribble a note directly on its 8-in., touch-sensitive screen using the glowing Plexiglas stylus.
