    FULL SPOILER-FREE REVIEW @ https://talkingfilms.net/the-accountant-2-review-ben-affleck-and-jon-bernthal-shine-in-a-surprisingly-superior-sequel/ "The Accountant 2 turns out to be a surprisingly superior sequel to the original, driven by the smart bet on the fraternal relationship between Ben Affleck and Jon Bernthal. Featuring more polished action set pieces, genuinely funny moments, and enough emotional depth to engage the audience, Gavin O'Connor delivers a story that is both highly entertaining and thrilling, falling short of greatness only due to an overabundance of secondary threads and occasional narrative loss of focus. Still, the impeccable chemistry of its lead duo and... Show more >>

    To be honest, I’d completely forgotten about the original “Accountant” (2016) so wasn’t expecting much from this. Thing is, it’s quite good fun as the meticulous bean-counter with some deep, dark, secrets (Ben Affleck) has to team up with his estranged brother “Braxton” (Jon Bernthal) and an even less willing government agent “Medina” (Cynthia Addai-Robinson) to try to discover just why her boss (J.K. Simmons) was gunned down after a clandestine meeting in a dodgy nightclub. It seems that the siblings have more in common that we (or she) might have expected, and when their techniques manage to successfully marry one’s access to cutting edge technology with the other’s propensity to punch...

    "Accountant 2" is an inadequate sequel to a vastly superior, original action thriller. Regrettably, unlike the original film this is a production that doesn't know what it wants to be. Is it an action film or perhaps a comedy? The result is confused and frankly, irritating. The poorly devised comedic elements get in the way of what should be a sophisticated, serious, action film. Its akin to a moron with a air horn and bad jokes, turning up at a Shakespeare festival. Suffice to say, you can probably skip the first twenty or so minutes of this film and it wont make an iotas difference, to the story. Unless, of course, you enjoy watching an accountant with an autism spectrum... Show more >>

    Batman and Marv monologue their way through this shit. There is chemistry. I feel strange about this one. Like that time I whooped in Red's. Kids stare up in awe at their saviour. FBI agent's fight scene destroys her character unnecessarily. Why was it all so long? Another intermission musical number. Make short, fun movies please. 88 would have been great. I sure hope Affleck calls that hot teen.

    The movie about an actual accountant was followed up by one about a straight up killer going through a mid-life crisis and doing no accounting whatsoever - unless you consider counting kills. The first half of the movie requires a re-watch to understand what one just watches because the scenes just seem completely disconnected to the entire movie. Some of them might actually have nothing to do with the story are just filler or serve as a "show of power" with no effect on the story. Despite the entire story being revealed, the whole time one would be posing the question: what does this have to do with an accountant? Even the final scenes just raises the question: how in the world would he... Show more >>
