The poor reviews are surprising. I really liked its narrative variety. The accurate depiction of autism, the action scenes, and surprisingly good humour made the film worth the price of admission.

I just finished watching "The Accountant". I really enjoyed it. It felt VERY mature. I'm not sure why it has such a low score on "Rotten Tomatoes". I don't think this movie was marketed as your average-Joe's action movie, and it wasn't. Chris Stuckman hit the nail on the head with his entire review. This movie should be at least in the 80%-range on RT. I'd give it an "A" as well!

I think it's just the controversial topic of autism. You have to be very careful with how you portray something like that. The movie is for people mature enough to understand that having autism doesn't turn you into a superhero. This guy's was just Ina unique situation and it showed how his autism paled to certain strengths kind of. The movie is still meant to entertain. So making him a badass makes perfect sense

Well that wouldn't really make sense because critics loved Gone Baby Gone, The Town, Argo, Gone Girl, and many of them, despite not liking BvS, even admired his work as Batman. I think the main reason critics are on the fence with this movie is largely due to the autism aspect. Plus it got a 50 percent on RT. That doesn't mean it's universally disliked by the critics. It just means that critics were divided. Half of them liked it. Half of them didn't.

wichita blackhat ive seen the judge and it's one of the worst written movies i've ever seen. it was filled with uninteresting and dull dialogue with very little development or plot whatsoever. it was also very messy. the only thing that saved that movie were strong performances from duvall and downey. this hack also wrote the headhunter's calling, which has a 0% on RT with a 3.2/10 average. This guy is starting to become a red flag for shit writing. He's possibly the next Skip Woods.

1. Straight-up action movies tend to do worse in the critic space since they focus heavily on scenes and choreography instead of story and dialogue. This one is no exception. 2. I'm pretty sure a lot of writers are sensing that Affleck is now an acceptable target because of BvS, and this is a chance for them to stretch their bad movie writing one last time before awards season kicks in. 3. Some might have hoped for a deep dive into how autism is managed, and may have expected something like Good Will Hunting or Rainman, which this movie is not. In my opinion, this was a great action movie that had a very sweet heart to it at its core. For me, the message the film was trying to pass--that people with autism-spectrum are no less capable of great things than you or I--stuck its landing very gracefully. The portrayal of autism by all the actors was some of the best that I have seen, and overall the acting was fantastic. If you like Jason Statham or Jet Li movies, or want to see an uplifting movie about neurodiversity, check this out.

Can't imagine why any reviewer wouldn't like it, extremely well written, well acted.. drama, comedy, action.. requires some thinking.. yet not hard to follow. Just very well put together and written.

I laughed at certain parts, but I think we were supposed to.. maybe the reason it got some bad reviews is because they viewed it as making fun of autistic people..? But I din't take it as that at all...Mostly the scenes between BA and AK. Which were also so very touching and you could feel what both their characters were feeling.

I give The Accountant an A+. I loved enough to see it over 20 times. I didn't see it at the theater. I purchased the DVD. The most important man in my life has Asperger's and the similarities between the two are heartbreaking yet thrilling. (my sweetie is not an assassin but he is a math savant). What made me angry is the first time I watched it I put the subtitles on the screen, because of hearing loss, and they gave away the identity if the badass being his brother. This is the first time I've experienced subtitles prematurely revealed plot twists. The Accountant is one of my most favorite films ever. I wanted to see him have a new truck delivered to the people on the farm. 🥰🥰🥰

We saw this movie last night, and I have to say that I was really blown away by it. Thinking more on it, it's probably one of my favorite movies of this year not only for its craft, acting, plot, pacing, etc, but also because it was an incredibly original movie... something that we don't get too often. Sure, we can all say that we've seen the "unassuming guy who's secretly a bad-ass" movie before, but the way this was presented was entirely original and something I've never seen before. Plus it really makes me want to see more of this world. I do kind of want this to be a franchise like the Bourne movies (not quite that many tho), I'd like to see another story with these characters now that we have them all fully fleshed out.

Yeah, having Autism has been very difficult for me in my life. I get overwhelmed very easily and I occasionally have meltdowns. While I'm not a badass like Batfleck in this movie, I do have the ability to draw very well. I'm currently working my way into the comic book industry and it's been a journey. I hope that I can show people what people with Autism are capable of.

I loved this movie, one of my favorites by far. A def bluray buy form e. Ben Affleck is easily becoming my favorite actor in hollywood. Also I got a lil teary-eyed upon one of the reveals at the end of the film, a pleasant surprise, wondering what became of that character. Great job movie, you're one of the few to make me emotional of multiple reasons!

As a guy with aspergers syndrom having gone to school with autists for a large portion of my childhood I would say this is one of the best portrayals of autism I have seen on movies to date, together with Christian Bale in The Big Short. Chris is right that hollywood has a tendency to make it into lush stereotypical characters and I really appreciate that this film didn’t do it too much, although sometimes it was maybe exaggerated a little bit, theres the scene where Kendricks character says the phrase “where fun goes to die” and he responds “why would fun go there to die?” To me that seemed a bit over the top, but all autists are differen’t, theres a lot of truth to the scene in the whole problematique, I just felt like they were spelling it out for the viewer a bit too much, often the inadequacies of autism doesn’t lie in what is said but in what is not said and that is what haunts you as an autist, going mentally crazy because you literally just don’t get people and their way of expressing themselves, their motivations, their body language, you feel like an alien dumped on a foreign planet and I haven’t seen a portrayal of an autist where they actually go behind the funny awkward situations (notice how autism is usually just used as comedic relief in movies) and actually show the pain of not feeling relatable to anyone, I haven’t seen that until just now, thank you Ben Affleck!

RT doesn't give scores. It's an aggregate site that collect reviews from many critics and determines it's fresh/rotten score depending on whether critics gave the film a 3/5 or over (fresh) or anything below 3/5 (rotten).

An intense and sophisticated action-drama that shatters your sunday evening blues with incisive screenplay and sublime cinematography. Ben Affleck steals the show with his exceptional portrayal of an autistic accountant. The story thrillingly moves a tad slowly, towards a turbulent finale. Excellent performances by supporting actors keep you immersed, making the movie worth watching. The Accountant, a different one-man army!

When Ben Affleck and Matt Damon wrote 'Good Will Hunting' it was originally about a genius/spy/assassin who had a therapist. It was on the advice of a senior script writer, who suggested that they change the focus of the movie. So they did. They got rid of all the action and made 'Good Will Hunting'. So I think you're right. This movie is a rehash of the one they originally wanted to do.

Me and my brother just watched the Accountant last night. That movie was awesome, my only regret was that I wished I had seen that movie in the movies instead of the crap that was Jack Reacher 2. That final scene at the end also floored me as well, it was a nice touch for a call back to a certain character at the beginning. I'm hoping for a sequel were they can finally focus on the present since all the backstory was revealed during the first. I always enjoy your smart reviews!!!! Keep it up guy!!!!!!

Being socially awkward has nothing to do with introversion. Although it can be a consequence of being an introvert, it's not a definition of it, as you can be an introvert while also being outgoing and have an easy time talking to people. The definition of introversion just means that you prefer to spend more time alone, then spend time with other people, because it gives you a sense of fulfilment.
