Disability is not inability

Most people are usually, if not always skeptical about living with people with disabilities and nurturing them to reach their utmost potential. However after watching The Accountant you will realise that everyone, disabled or not, can tap into their inner self to unleash their inner capabilities and make a difference. Just like other exquisite mystery action movies like Taken, Equalizer amongst others, this latest dramatic thriller is actually unique on its own.

The movie centres around a young boy with autism but with vast loads of potential. Ben Affleck is an Oscar winning actor who is synonymous with this type of character roles. His films often focus on characters caught in situations out of their depth. He played such roles in box office hit movies like Gone Girl, Dawn of Justice and Pearl Harbour just to name a few. This time he adopts the life of Christian Wolff (Ben Affleck), 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 organisations.

With the Treasury Department’s Crime Enforcement Division, run by Ray King (J.K. Simmons), starting to take keen interest, 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 uncooks the books and gets closer to the truth, it is the body count that starts to rise. This captivating tale gets transformed into reality by Gavin O’Connor a small time director who has only worked with one major Hollywood star in Mad Max: Road Fury’s Tom Hardy, the two worked together in action blood sport Warrior in 2011.
