À propos de ce 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.

Notes et avis

A very interesting and great story for this movie and with someone who has autism ben Affleck pulled of the best performance for this movie and did a great job with the setting and the behaviors of people in the autistic spectrum brilliant job and i love how the cover art is in jigsaw peices like the world wide simbol for autism subtle details like this are amazing

Overall, better than expected, certainly better than the Rotten Tomatoes score would indicate. A smattering of good action and the occasional laugh help cover what's not the strongest story.

A reminder that the art of movies is lagging so far behind television these days. It's hype and promise struggle to disguise its averageness.
