Very entertaining, apart from the in depth research and openness on autism, explore from a different angle for people who suffer from this "disability".

The title would have made a great name for a nemesis in the old "Get Smart!" television series, I can just hear Don Adams exclaiming "THE ACCOUNTANT!" Other than this, why would anyone tear a painting of "Dogs Playing Poker" to shreds?…

Affleck brings big-screen charisma, understated wit, and a hint of tenderness to the role of Chris, a man who wants to connect with other people but doesn’t quite know how;
This might not be a problem—plenty of actioners are enjoyably…

A pretty good B movie. Probably one of Ben's better ones. Anna Kendrick is an excellent choice for his costar in this role.
Certainly not great cinema, but a good way to spend a relaxing evening with beer and pizza

My (cynical) read on the makers motivation: they wanted to cash in on the huge action-movie market but needed an angle, a gimmick. Oh wow- we've got it: an autistic action hero! Like Adrian Monk (autistic tv detective) only with martial…
