He's got a ledger in one hand and a sniper rifle in the other.
This week, the boys crack open The Accountant – the 2016 action-thriller starring Ben Affleck as a math savant with more secrets than a Swiss bank. We’re diving into financial crimes, childhood trauma, martial arts, and what it really means to be “high-functioning” in both Excel and hand-to-hand combat.
We’ll talk:
Why this movie is oddly heartwarming… and also kind of terrifying
The most underrated Affleck performance?
The wild blend of autism, action, and accounting (and somehow it works)
Jon Bernthal’s twist, Anna Kendrick’s charm, and JK Simmons doing JK Simmons things
Plus, we ask the important questions:
Does this deserve a franchise?
What’s your superpower nobody understands?
And… can spreadsheets save the world?
Hit play, crunch the numbers, and let’s see if The Accountant adds up.
