Review of The Accountant (2016) by Bruno Richard M — 30 Dec 2017
This low score from critics only serves how dynamically out of touch they are with word beyond their own sanctimonious, self-absorbed, self- imporatant view of the world is the only one of consequence.
That is just plain pathetic. Reviews that call it an offense against real world autistic human beings makes it clear that they have never known a high function autistic person, the very psychological possibilities for these high functioning autistic people.
These Savants see the world in an entirely different way than non-autistic people. They excel in one, two even three skills that transcend the wildest imaginings of non-autistics in the same field. I find it abhorrent that these review fall on sentiment and emotion with absolutely NO knowledge of real world high functioning autistics and sevants.
We are only know scraping the surface of autism truly is, as can be clearly be demonstrated reclassifications of autism into a Spectrum in the DSM-V. Knowing the extreme subtleties of autism, this movie had transcendent moments.
Was the father's approach the best, no. However, helping autistics to deal with real world situations, as I believe was the father's intent, most certainly is, even if his methodology was extreme.
He was special ops, it was all he knew. Adherence to a code or set of belief that provides clear and finite definition to the world of an autistic servant is to be expected. Forming an attachment with Dana, who not only loved numbers, but had caught a desperity that he gave definition is hardly rare.
Ben Affleck played this part to near perfection. This movie redefined how lay people view high functioning autistics and sevants. Shame on the critics whose weak, uninformed and frankly ignorant views on something they know nothing about.
I would remind them that being a film critic on its own requires very little skill. The truly worthy critics see each film for what it is, and their following reflects. Rolling Stone hardly gives a hack writer any importance.
