Motion Comic for Ben Affleck's THE ACCOUNTANT Introduces the Badass Character
The Accountant is one hell of a badass film and is probably one of my favorite movies of the year. I've seen a lot of reviews say that the plot is preposterous, but lots of fun and great movies have preposterous plots, like John Wick for example! Why they decided to single this one out is beyond me because it's awesomely entertaining. I freakin' loved it, and if you get a chance to see it this weekend, make sure you do! Ben Affleck is pretty great in it, and it's easily one of my favorite characters he's played.
The movie opens today, but before you watch it, here's a motion comic released by DC Comics that introduces the character Christian Wolff and gives you a little background story and the mystery surrounding him. "The story follows Christian from his seemingly simple life as an accountant to reveal his secret life as an assassin as he investigates a case." Enjoy!
Christian Wolff (Ben Affleck) is 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 organizations. With the Treasury Department’s Crime Enforcement Division, run by Ray King (J.K. Simmons), starting to close in, 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.
