Review of The Accountant (2016) by Grant S — 25 Aug 2017
The US Treasury Department is searching for a man who is the accountant to several global crime figures. They know him simply as The Accountant. The man himself is living a fairly inconspicuous existence as a practicing accountant. He is hired by Living Robotics, a tech firm, to go through their accounts after a junior accountant found some abnormalities. What he finds makes him a marked man...
Great movie. Good plot with heaps of intrigue, twists and turns. The writer and director do well to not reveal too much too soon, aiding the suspense.
Good action scenes too. Not overdone, and reasonably plausible, i.e. not your impossible, perfectly-choreographed stuff.
Solid performance by Ben Affleck in the lead role. Good support from Anna Kendrick.
