The Accountant (2016)

[BigKen]

Ben Affleck is the Accountant in this Mystery/Suspense/Thriller.

Early showings start tonight (10/13) nationwide at 7:00 PM. Theatres locally are having two showings at 7 and 10.

According to the trailer this is Affleck's best yet. Anyone going the early shows?

I can't, grandson has a football game at 6 and I'll be sound asleep at 10. I'll be going tomorrow morning.

 

[Hank Kingsley]

Given it happens to be my "trade" I'll be renting it eventually.

But I don't go to movies any more.

According to Rotten Tomatoes (41%) it falls right in the medium of Affleck flicks

I'm digging up a two year old thread because I finally saw this film.

The Accountant is much better than I thought it would be... it's a pretty solid action film when one is in the mood for an entertaining popcorn flick. Someone recommended it to me because they knew I enjoyed both John Wick and The Equalizer.

Sure, some of the dialog and acting is questionable, especially by Anna Kendrick (the film's damsel in distress)... but overall it's a fun couple hours of brain candy.

6/10


After watching the film, I thought of a silly question:

If there was a fight between the characters John Wick, The Equalizer, and The Accountant..... who would win? Hehe.

I'm not a Ben Afleck fan, but I decided to rent this movie when it came out on RedBox (last year?) and I was quite surprised at how much I enjoyed the show. It dragged on in couple of spots, but otherwise I gave it pretty high marks.

 

[calsnowskier]

I mentioned elsewhere (“Last movie you saw” thread??) that I thought this movie would have worked better as a tv show.

I enjoyed it. The comparison to John Wick is apt.

i hope john wick 3 goes balls to the walls ridiculous. the first caught an unexpected popularity and they made a shitty sequel. the fact they're making it a third means there was enough carry over from the firsts following. they need the third to be crazy, hell Nick Cage should make a cameo in it, include it in the Mandy-verse if they want to.

I thought it was a great movie.
Takes a couple of times to catch everything.

It was good but John Wick is better.
