Christian Wolff (Ben Affleck) is a math savant with more affinity for numbers than people. Behind the cover of a small-town CPA office, he works as a freelance accountant for some of the world's most dangerous criminal organizations. With the Treasury Department's Crime Enforcement Division, run by Ray King (J.K. Simmons), starting to close in, Christian takes on a legitimate client: a state-of-the-art robotics company where an accounting clerk (Anna Kendrick) has discovered a discrepancy involving millions of dollars. But as Christian un-cooks the books and gets closer to the truth, it is the body count that starts to rise.

Critics Consensus: The Accountant writes off a committed performance from Ben Affleck, leaving viewers with a scattershot action thriller beset by an array of ill-advised deductions.

Reviews

Decider

Jesse Hassenger

The Accountant is a ridiculous movie with at least one subplot too many and a genuine murkiness about why, after all this, Christian Wolff wants to launder money for a living.

One of the coolest Action Thrillers in along time. Ben Affleck proves his strengths as a leading actor

“The Accountant” does plenty right – a good cast with good performances, bursts of intense well-shot action (occasionally laced with bits of dry humor), a dense but thoughtful story.

Every Movie Has a Lesson

Don Shanahan

Many delectable connections and catalysts are deftly hidden in subtle imagery, passing clues, and little character quirks throughout the film. Some of the bigger twists are visible solar systems away while others spark and combust in clever reveals.

Although it's tempting to forgive the film's structural zig-zagging, the ludicrously convenient twists and questions spoil its overall effect.
