The Accountant 2 in AMC Dolby

The “Buddy Comedy” chemistry between Ben Affleck and Jon Bernthal continues with this 2nd installment of The Accountant.

 Christian Wolff (Ben Affleck) has a talent for solving complex problems. When an old acquaintance is murdered, leaving behind a cryptic message to “find the accountant,” Wolff is compelled to solve the case. Realizing more extreme measures are necessary, Wolff recruits his estranged and highly lethal brother, Brax (Jon Bernthal), to help. 

Christian and Brax join forces with the U.S. Treasury Deputy Director Marybeth Medina (Cynthia Addai-Robinson), together they uncover a deadly conspiracy and become targets of a ruthless network of killers who will stop at nothing to keep their secrets buried. The story unfolds from there… 

The Accountant 2 has a great plot, tons of action and some suspense. At times though, the movie runs off the train tracks, but always rights its self to bring you back in. The story is intricate and that is what will hold your attention. 

Ben Affleck and Jon Bernthal are funny together and play off of each other very nicely. This 2nd installment is better than the 2016 installment.

The Accountant 2 is worth a look.

This is a 4 Star Movie!!

The Accountant

If I have said this once, I’ve said it a thousand times…Ben Affleck is brilliant behind the camera, but not in front of it.

“The Accountant” is about a boy, Christian Wolff (Affleck) with autism who grows up to be a genius accountant, who also serves as an assassin for his clients. Wolff works as a free-lance accountant for some of the most dangerous people. As the Justice Department starts to close in, Wolff takes on a legitimate client, where there is an accounting discrepancy that has been uncovered by an in-house accounting clerk (Kendrick). Mysteriously as the accounting discrepancy comes to full light, the body count starts to rise. The story unfolds from there…

The movie has so many twists, turns and subplots that the main plot gets lost. This makes it difficult to tie all the pieces together, but at the end it’s all cleaned up.

There is so much going on in “The Accountant” that you will not be bored. This is truly a Drama, Suspense Thriller of epic proportion. The movie is better than Ben Affleck acting in it.

This is a 3 ½ Star Movie!
