The Treasury Department is looking into a mysterious man called āthe Accountantā (Ben Affleck) who was responsible for murdering several mobsters; at the same time, heās hired to audit a robotics firm⦠An odd idea for an action-thriller, although it does begin to vaguely resemble a Batman story in disguise as it moves along. There are a few clever touches in this movie, which reveals āthe Accountantāsā dark past piece by piece. A little confusing at first, and overall far from convincing, but surprisingly engaging nonetheless. Affleck is fun to watch as the autistic hit man whoās learned to control his affliction.
