Gurlyndrobb While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.
Casey Duggan It’s sentimental, ridiculously long and only occasionally funny
Arianna Moses Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.
Cody One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.
cazmor Wow.......It is always pleasant to go into a movie with no expectations, and this one delivered in spades.Any story starts with... well a great story, and this is it, although somewhat predictable it's more a comforting predictable, a good guy wins story with enough great twists in it to keep the interest.The cast here lifts the game, who knew Affleck had this in him, and supported by the ever sweet Kendrick (all be it with a kick-ass moment), and throw in favorites like Simmons (Terminator Genisys) and Addai-Robinson (Shooter), all playing their respective parts well.The scene with Affleck's and Kendrick's characters having lunch showed great subtly in writing, directing and acting. A lot of dry and subtle humor throughout.No overdone CGI either, just good clean action, regularly punctuating the plot, with the clean cinematography only adding to clinical nature of our lead character.For the run-of-the-mill action flick, you shouldn't pass this one up.
kabailey61 I really enjoyed this movie from beginning to end. I really not a big fan of Ben Affleck but I must say he was wonderful as Christian Wolff. I also enjoyed Jon Bernthal as Brax.
adam-may-bower 'The Accountant' may have a great acting ensemble and entertaining action sequences, but the messy and disjointed plot confines this movie to being just good. The definite highlight of this film is the acting, which is superbly done by every leading cast member. Ben Affleck portrays his complex character well and is supported by stand out performances from J.K. Simmons and Anna Kendrick. The action sequences, as infrequent as they are, are well choreographed and entertaining to watch but ultimately stand out from the rest of the film. The themes of finance, autism, crime and borderline-romance do not mix well in this film, and these one-too-many tropes cause it to be quite disjointed. The results in the film being rather difficult to enjoy, as you're never quite sure what genre you're really watching. This film would be far more interesting to watch, had I been the type of individual to be intrigued by accounting and financial crime-solving. However, this was all saved from being a bore of a movie by the great acting and engaging action scenes.
Dar Star This movie was just a bore. The plot made no sense and Ben Affleck is not an action hero no matter what he thinks. He should stick to serious material or thrillers. A waste of time. I rate it a 4 out of 10
