Review of The Accountant (2016) by Dinesh P — 02 Sep 2017
Affleck does an amazing job as Christian displaying his abilities as an actor when it comes to showing the autistic side of his character and then switching up to the action sequences smoothly showing the other side of the character.
Kendrick does a fine job but isn't given much to do here. Simmons turns in his usual well done performance but offers a few surprises of his own. And Addai-Robinson, a new face to me, shows that she has what it takes to get more featured rolls.
At the heart of it all is the story that captivates the viewer. It takes a topic that is usually reserved for disease-of-the-week status and inserts it into something completely different. Then it twists and turns the story around that basic concept and makes it something unique.
For me this movie was one that held me in its grip from start to finish and caught me off guard as well. That's rare these days and make this a movie that I can't recommend highly enough.
