Description

Jaby & Alli watch The Accountant, following a highly skilled math savant who secretly works as a forensic accountant for dangerous criminal organizations while evading government agents closing in on his true identity. As the story unfolds, layers of his past, his precise methods, and the risks of his double life come into focus, blending action, mystery, and character-driven tension. This reaction highlights their first-time experience with the film’s calculated pacing, intense action beats, and the unique mix of intellect and violence that sets it apart from typical action thrillers. The film is directed by Gavin O’Connor (Warrior, The Way Back, Miracle, Pride and Glory, Jane Got a Gun) and stars Ben Affleck (Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, Gone Girl, Justice League, Argo, The Town), Anna Kendrick (Pitch Perfect, Up in the Air, A Simple Favor, Twilight, Trolls), J.K. Simmons (Spider-Man, Whiplash, Justice League, Invincible, Oz), Jon Bernthal (The Punisher, The Walking Dead, Fury, Ford v Ferrari, Sicario), Cynthia Addai-Robinson (The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power, Spartacus, Arrow, Colombiana, Shooter), and John Lithgow (Dexter, 3rd Rock from the Sun, Interstellar, Cliffhanger, Shrek). ___________________________________________________ We've got merch!

The twist of John Bernthal being his brother was so obvious and yet it still managed to surprise me 😂

I’m autistic and growing up I had the same sensory overload problems Ben’s character had. People often think our senses are “stronger” but they’re actually just extremely sensitive. So the I adapted to them by using the same type of exposure therapy Christian used in the movie. Playing loud music or going to loud construction sites to desensitize myself to it. It’s still loud, but it’s not affecting me nearly as bad as when I was a kid, and I can hide it entirely from everyone. Also, I don’t know who Jaby’s friend is that says they refuse to watch this movie because they are sick of Hollywood turning autistic people into superheroes. But they could not be more wrong, which makes me believe that person either is not autistic or doesn’t watch enough movies or TV shows about autistic people. Because the stereotype that Hollywood actually does with high functioning autistic people is not turning them into superheroes, but turning them into human computers. The Accountant actually IS a superhero movie for autistic people. So many of us have dreamt of using our talents just like Christian does. This movie is not only wish fulfillment, but BELIEVABLE wish fulfillment.

This movie is sharp, smart, and surprisingly emotional. It keeps you hooked from start to finish.

When this movie came out, I went into the movie theater not having a clue what the hell I was going to watch and I was pleasantly surprised.

If you would have been paying attention Jaby you would have heard that the reason Christian went on that killing spree in the beginning of the movie was because they tortured and killed his friend from prison

I love how every person today sees a movie but then all of a sudden can’t remember anything about it. I remember movies I’ve seen 20+ years ago.
