Über diesen Film

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.

Bewertungen und Rezensionen

Sadly very overrated, that's 2 hours off my life I'm never getting back. I really don't see it got as good a score as it did. The end plot is terribly predicable and totally unbelievable (in a bad way!)

Disengage the brain and you'll probably enjoy this film but you'll have to work hard to ignore the clichés, plot holes and shallow characterisations - I'm actually surprised I gave it 3 stars.

Not a bad film but I just couldn't get into it and felt that a lot of it was kind of slow. Good actors and some faves in there to be fair they did play a good part.
