Matt Damon Turns 41: Happy Birthday (PHOTOS)

Although Matt Damon doesn't look a day over kick-a**-action-star, Damon turns the big 4-1 today. But just like the heartthrob bad guy chasers before him, Damon won't let his growing collection of birthdays slow him down. Check out these photos of Damon from Snakkle before he knew how to throw a mean right hook ("The Bourne Identity") or have his way with a rugby ball ("Invictis").

Ever since his high school days, Damon had the makings of a full on Hollywood heatthrob. Click through to Snakkle to see more pics of Matt Damon throughout the years.

I cannot believe Matt Damon is 41! It seemed like just yesterday when I saw him in Good Will Hunting in his 20's. He looks happy and healthy. Not a day over 30!

I love when the media portray aging celebrities as "not slowing down" as if they're super human. The reality is when you make $15 million for 27 minutes on a movie screen, who in their right mind wouldn't work until you drop dead? I'm so much better looking and in far superior shape then this hack and I'm 49. Waiting for a talent agency to call me.....1-800-IAM-HOT!

Matt Damon is not only an exceptionally fine actor, he's a decent, well raised human being. You won't hear a negative word about Matt Damon in Hollywood.

I think Matt Damon is awesome. Great, versatile actor. A successful writer. And he lives his life with principles. Love his politics.

Maybe he should tithe 10% of his millions to out of work people; like the one he portrays in the commercial.

My guess of Sandra Bernhard was a bit off.

In that photo in the red shirt, Matt looks like the lovechild of Doogie Howser and Kurt from Glee.
