Film Review - The Accountant 2
April 22, 2025
“The Accountant” was released in 2016. The film did so-so business, failing to stir up much interest from critics and audiences. Clearly, someone, somewhere made a little money, inspiring the creation of “The Accountant 2,” which arrives in theaters a whopping nine years after the release of the first movie. Writer Bill Dubuque returns to continue the journey for lead character Christian Wolff, tasked with making him softer for the follow-up, which explores family ties and concern for children as the baddies are involved in a human trafficking ring. Director Gavin O’Connor also signs up for a continuation (he’s only made one other feature, “The Way Back,” since 2016), and while “The Accountant 2” is meant to be a big screen inspection of askew heroism and investigation, the helmer only really crafts an episode of television with the picture. With very little action and routine emotionality, a revisit to “Accountant” country doesn’t have much excitement or drama to offer. Read the rest at Blu-ray.com
