The Accountant full watch along REACTION: bit.ly/3Vo7ks7 Keep up with us, the community, the schedule and everything we have going on, join our discord: discord.com/invite/stikkerfam

This movie was one of the best “hidden gems” in cinema. It’s both a classic action flick, and subverts expectations at the same time. Easily one of Ben Afleck’s best movies.

I am autistic, and when I saw this film for the first time, I was so overjoyed to see someone on the spectrum portrayed well and was a kick-ass superhero. I’m glad you guys reacted to this film. I hope they make a second film with this character. Those of us with autism aren’t weird, we’re just different. Love you guys and your channel. Thank you.

"The Accountant" and "Nobody", two of the most underrated movies ever.

FUN FACT: That painting in film and at the films conclusion, is called "FREE FORM" by Jackson Pollock. Its estimated worth is upward to $140 million. ANOTHER FUN FACT: The Accountant 2 is currently in production, principal photography began in March 2024

The fact John Lithgow's death is so sudden and anticlimactic is just perfect. Because to Chriss its just another task to complete no more or less important than the last piece of the Ali puzzel.

The comics in the drawer are part of Wolff's alternative assets that act as his portable wealth. The two comics shown are Action Comics #1 from 1938 (the first appearance of Superman) with an approximate asset value of $6 million, and All-American Comics #16 from 1940 (the first appearance of Green Lantern) with an approximate asset value of $1 million. Underneath the comics are vintage baseball cards, the mustard-colored one on the far left being a 1909 Honus Wagner, perhaps the rarest baseball card in the world, worth over $7 million. Grabbing any one of those items would have been far more valuable than the cash and gold bars in the other two drawers.

"I'm scared of him. Hes terrifying." And yet he's the loveable yellow M&M.

Autistic person here (Diagnosed if you're wandering). The most important thing to remember is that every autistic person is different on some levels, but with that said, Ben Affleck did an amazing acting job as portraying an autistic person! He did lots of researchs apparently to really understand how we work and how to portray it as good as possible. I just love this actor so much. One of my favorite movies.

such a great movie. Ben and Jon are amazing in their roles and im very hype for the sequel. Hope Anna Kendrick comeback for part 2.

I’ve never seen anyone react to this, and I’m SO glad you guys are the ones to step up. Love it, thanks for your efforts.

The mom left the kids, not the husband. She couldn't take it. The dad is the one who didn't give up on them

As an accountant, I can attest that this is how busy season is for us every year.

Couple of things: the "big goon that can't fight" is Tait Fletcher, UFC veteran and one of the nicest guys I've ever met. The dowel with the shins is causing microfractures. When the calcification grows over them, it adds bone density and makes them stronger than before (in addition to desensitization). And one of those comics in his trailer would be worth more than all of the cash he had in the drawer.

They're now finally making The Accountant 2 sequel. Can't wait.

Underrated fact: Dana is VERY smart. She may be neurotypical, but she was the reason why Christian was brought in IN THE FIRST PLACE. Which means she might be out of her depth in everything else he is skilled in, but his intellect sees a kindred spirit in hers. And she sees his intellect as a kindred spirit to hers too.

I've been recommending this movie to people for several years now and I'm still the only one I personally know who's seen it. It's so frustrating because this is such a great movie.

"Jon Bernthal lives, yaaay!" Made me laugh lol, because literally every movie he dies. 🤣

One of my fav movies. Such incredible moments. When he times driving his truck into the garage perfectly as the door shuts…… is a tactic law enforcement knows about when tailing people. Notice when things go wrong, he hits the garage door bc he’s off his game. So many more cool moments too.

John Wick (2014) The Equalizer (2014) The Accountant (2016) Nobody (2021) The renaissance of "one-man-army" - action flicks, that we loved so much in the 80s.

Lol I like how they noticed the comics in the drawer and they think anything of it. It's actually currency. Those issues he has are so limited, they are practically currency. He has at least couple million dollars in that drawer

Also want sure if yall caught it. But the dented thermos she asked about when they were eating lunch. The treasury agent was explaining how he broke out of prison when he found out the old man was killed and he says he fractured a guards skull with a steel thermos. Lol so he kept it cause the old man gave it to him WHILE escaping prison. Wild stuff. 🤙🏻

@26:30 ''See, he appreciates Dana, and I appreciate that he appreciates her...'' I appreciate that you appreciate that. Lol!

This was THE surprise hit that year. The sequel was shelved because Ben wanted to be Batman. How dare he think of himself instead of us ;-) Thankfully it is a go now.

Nice bit of detail - when Chris snipes the bad guy holding the woman at 24:42, we hear the impact of the shot before we hear the gunshot itself, which is correct because these are hypersonic rounds.

"Name a place I´ll be there." - This is why I love this movie. After all they went trough they were still brothers. Their dad was a good dad.

I love the flashbacks so much. Especially the taking them to bullies and making his kids understand lesson to stand up for themselves but also gave them the choice. Dad was hardcore but did what he the needed to help him.

The father, whilst seemingly cruel, was actually giving him all he needed to survive in the world. That was the way he showed his love to his boys, he stayed, and made sure that they could each take care of themselves, and each other.

You want to know what's funny, I saw this movie and then a few years later I was diagnosed with Autism, and I am definitely not a math savant, or any kind of savant for that matter.

One of the more underrated movies with Ben. You don't hear about it too much. Recently re-watched it on a whim lol so it's cool you guys picked it up!

28:28 , Action Comics, first appearance of Superman, sold for over 6 million as of April 2024. Legitimately worth more than all the cash you wanted to grab.

Welcome to the Accountant fandom -- and now you understand why so many of us have been hoping and waiting so long for The Accountant 2, which with any luck they won't mess up. Among other things, I'd seen her before, but this was the movie that made me crush hard on Anna Kendrick.

Near the end when he is rolling with the guy he pulled the guys flashbang and stuffed in between his body and his body armor.

I love the camera work in this film. When the accountant is shooting at the fruit at the farm, between the 2nd and 3rd shot, the camera movement simulates the viewer being the shooter in the scope. The camera shifts up and off of the destroyed fruit, over to above the remaining melon, then down to take the shot. Very cool detail of realistic POV riflery.

Hey guys! So glad you liked this movie. How it wasnt even nominated at all for ANYTHING is absolutely mind numbing

Director/writer Gavin O'Connor also did the often overlooked film 'Warrior' which has a similar theme about a fractured relationship between two brothers and their father. Stars Tom Hardy & Nick Notle definitely a must watch.

def. great gem of a movie. The whole family dynamic and how his father raised him to not be a victim gets to me every time.

This was such a good movie, it is now going on my list of favorites! Also, I loved Anna Kendrick's character in this!

hype for the sequel.

I’ve never been a Ben Affleck fan, but my friends keep telling me I need to see this movie

I can't believe you guys missed a "Star Wars" character sighting. The "big goon" with the beard that Chris fought on the farm was Tait Fletcher. Better known as Paz Vizsla in the shows. This is the way.😉

Imagine stealing his airstream because they are worth over a 100,000 then realising its full of some of the rarest things around and the contents are probably worth closing on 1 billion dollars, you would be happy until you realise whoever owns it will probably hunt you down and kill you.

The Accountant is actually a really good non-costume Batman movie, with Affleck and Simmons reprising the Batman & Commissioner Gordon roles they played in the DC cinematic universe. Affleck/Wolff is the forensic detective with mad fighting skills bringing down crime syndicates, and Simmons/King is the law enforcement officer brought in on cases to assist with the legal side of the busts. Bernthal/Braxton is like a Robin character, and Wolff's childhood friend Justine is a sort of Alfred or Barbara Gordon/Oracle character. His Airstream is like his Batcave.

This is a criminally under rated movie. I watch it every chance I get. Under performed but I haven't talked to anyone that doesn't like it. Thank you for the reaction.

6:44 Microfractures... making bones denser (thicker) when the body regenerates. As you said, it happens to martial artist's shins, knuckles, and soccer players, in any sport or martial art where bones hit hard against other surfaces.

The Accountant is autistic so he is not consciously trying to be "cold or indifferent" There are different levels of autism, some high levels where the person cannot speak, or a person on the lower spectrum of autism speaks but might be emotionally distant or he is sensitive to sound ad touch (example: An autistic child of 5 may have the social/emotional development of a 2/3 year old.). Very intelligent, very specific.

This is one of the few movies out there that I will sit and watch every time I see it on, enjoying every minute of it. Doesn't matter how many times I've seen it, it's great every time.

I loved how when this movie came out, the critics who didn't like it tried saying it didn't capture autism well, and as an autistic guy, i can tell you this movie capture autism perfectly, especially the scene when he's telling anna kendrick's character about what he found in the bored room at 18:50, and he's very talkative and showing his emotions for the first time because he's comfortable with her, then as soon as the other woman walks in, and she leaves, he goes back to his emotionless demeanor i do that shit all of the time

OMG at Nikki's face for the grenade. lol

What I love about the fight between the brothers. Chris is allowing Braxton to express his anger (hit him) until Braxton demands that he fight back. The moment he does, Chris takes him to the ground and has him dead to rights.

An absolutely outstanding film. Today it is almost an award if a film, like with this particular topic, is not a film for the general public. He hasn't been softened beyond recognition. "The will to act"

7:32, it's not the dad who 'needed help'.. its the mom who couldn't handle a child w/ special needs.

This movie is criminally underrated. Excellent work by everyone involved in it.

What Christian he's doing with the sound, the light and the stick is to learn to deal with what we call Sensory Overload.

This cliche gets tossed around movie reviews all the time, but this movie is just absolutely "pitch perfect." The movie's logical editing, color grading and music mimics Affleck's minimal character and stark personality. Completely agree with Nikki&Steve about Anna Kendrick's character, giving the film some bright color and vulnerability -- and a perfect proxy for us the audience as a stakeholder in the story.

13:32 He isnt stealing. Shorting means shorting their stocks. Its not anything illegal, youre just selling their shares to try to make the price drop and therefore devalue the company. ''As an example, let's say that you decide that Company XYZ, which trades for $100 per share, is overpriced. So, you decide to short the stock by borrowing 10 shares from your brokerage and selling them for a total of $1,000. If the stock proceeds to go down to $90, you can buy those shares back for $900, return them to your broker, and keep the $100 profit. ''

J.k Simmons does a amazing job in OZ the tv show

Me and my 2 children have autism. This movie does a good job on showing some of the aspects.

I have Asperger syndrome this hits home and I love math

The representation of the autism community in this movie, especially towards the end, is absolutely beautiful. Especially with Justine as Wollf’s partner.

when u have batman as your accountant and daredevil as your lawyer

"I'LL TAKE A BEEF SANDWICH!! AYOOO!!" lol classic

I truly feel like this movie is so underrated. I'm over the moon that your audience suggested this one and you guys gave it a watch!!!

I'm literally writing this during the ad that runs before to say.. I know you're gonna love this movie!!! Enjoy!

BEN Alleck as Batman vs the Punisher l love this movie 🎥 🍿

You have no idea how long I've been waiting on SOMEONE to react to this! I love this movie!

You win. I cant believe literally nobody is reacting to this classic.

1:23 That initial thud shook me to my core when I saw this in theaters. It was like you could feel the pain in the sound. It sounded like it actually killed someone. I’ll never forget it.

Underrated film. I really love how this film subtly weaves all the elements together in a way that feels cohesive. Brilliant stuff.

As an engineer on the spectrum who does analyze things for a living, having the ability to see such things is not all it is cracked up to be. I mean obviously this movie is a dramatization, and yes Affleck plays an autistic action-hero type that I've seen many other autistic people be thrilled to see. Affleck gets so many small details correct that that empathy for some thread of self-identification with the character is very strong. However as kind of depicted in the movie the obsessive, detail-oriented focus needed when you do such things is a double-edged sword. You find yourself unable to let problems go, your thoughts day and night can circle over and over on the same thing, any interruptions tend to invoke irrational anger responses that you work forever to control. When working in such modes you tend to want to completely isolate yourself from everyone around you. Having to stop projects can lead to triggering depression. In many cases being able to produce content or something creative from scratch is usually my ambition. But analyzing other people's information and data for needed changes or mistakes is my artform. If I were to do something like creating a video it is like dressing up, wearing a mask, and acting a part. I would need to memorize lines and behaviors, responses to how to react, what to say, what not to say, all the time worried about making the end product perfect. That level acting of an extraverted nature is extremely draining and exhausting. So in many cases while being able to have such focus and concentration may look fun and interesting, I can say the same about what you two produce. I envy that capability.

so happy more people reacting to this movie as its incredible . love you guys

I really hope the sequel to this gets made, I thought this was a great movie.

This movie was like a screen test, Ben Affleck Batman, JK Simmons Gordon, Ana Kendrick as Robin.

Their father had "how to raise a sociopath" down to a science

One of my favorites. Whenever I’m flipping through cable channels and I see it, I turn it on.

"Why should we watch a movie about an accountant?" "Oh." Wonderful reaction, I love that you two saw everything it had to offer and felt it so strongly.

I'm an accountant & I can confirm this movie really captures the essence of the life.

FYI the shot with them both standing there with the fingers touching was foreshadowing of the relationship to be revealed.. The hand was reference to the human who was using the robotic limb to accomplish what he couldn’t do due to inability and wanting separation from the action!

Nah, that’s a Pootie Tang and Granddad move with the belt 😂

I condemn the mother for abandoning her children just like that. And endless respect to father, he raised them to be real & proper men. 👍

This movie is an underrated action packed and highly enjoyable film

Steven,you probably know this already but the constant impacts on bone makes it thicker and stronger,I've done this on my knuckles for many years and it does work.Great reaction,I love this type of movie.

It's a Rare air-stream I remember hearing Ben liked it so much he asked and they let him keep it after the movie. Its toy hauler you put motor cycles or snow mobiles in the back. Or in this case turn the back into a arsenal. They only made like 30 of them.

My son is semi-verbal autistic, he is 16 years old; When he was little he also did puzzles from the side he wasn't. He was quite impressive. He has a collection of hotwells that we bought almost every Saturday, one a week and he always chose them. He has more than 3000 and never made a mistake in buying one that he already had.

Such an underrated movie. Love this one.

The parking garage scene was subtle. Most people would surmise Braxton (Bernthal's character) parked so "Simon" can't escape out the drivers side. This is true. But, the subtlety is that the car's key fob pressed once only opens the driver's side door. Braxton can't get in from the passenger's side at this point. Simon has to press the fob twice to open all the doors so he can get in from the passenger's side. Now as Simon grunts, scoots over & settles into to the driver's seat, Braxton just follows him into the car. Slick.

I am so thankful you guys finally watched this movie. It is INCREDIBLE! Felt the same way as you watching the story unfold bit by bit with the perfectly timed flashbacks. Greatest performance by Ben!

I watched this movie for the third time yesterday. Only after watching your video did I realize that the Director's daughter was the one helping Chris. That makes this movie even better for me. Great video!

His strength is not only or not really math, that too but math is often a matter of "tricks"... His strength is to stay focused on something for incredible long time

FYI - Filming has started on "The Accountant 2" backed by Amazon MGM studios! Release date some time in 2025. Affleck, Bernthal, & Simmons, & Addai-Robinson are back.

I have an 18 year old nephew who I love dearly that has asperger's syndrome. And when I watched this movie it scared the hell out of me. My nephew is exactly like this guy. Minus the training towards violence. He will fixate anything he is doing to the complete exclusion of everything else around him. Seriously. The house could burn down and he wouldn't notice his ass was on fire. He sponges information and keeps it all locked away inside his head like his life depends on it. But it is so random. And precise. I love the History Channel. Seen plenty of shows about the Titanic. Even read some books. But when he was 8 he watched the movie. Went online and "looked into it a bit" and a few days later he was telling me stuff I'd never heard of. And to this day he can name most of the passengers who both survived and died. He learned that in a couple days and still remembers it. I can't remember what I had for lunch on Tuesday. He does this every week. Absorbing a subject until he either gets bored, something better comes along or as is most often the case he hase absorbed all the information he can find. If he applied that kind of focus to martial arts and weapons training I an positive he would be as dangerous as the accountant character in this movie.

Such an underrated movie. It's one of the few that I don't mind watching again every now and then.

"I'll leave the comics." That was Action Comics #1. The first appearance of Superman. Last auction price: 6 million.

I remember going to see this in theaters and being completely unaware as to what it was about and I loved it.

Affleck knocks it out of the park...the entire premise, a functional autistic's success, is amazing and is one of the coolest treatments I can think of. Not to mention the family thing and, of course, her...

I remember watching this the first time, and it blew me away, as the whole tale unfolds. Seen it a dozen times since, and still love it, especially the brother dynamic. So few movies get that right.

Things to love about this movie: The main bad guy (of the movie) is dead The secondary protagonist (Anna Kendrick) gets $140 Million Christian has a new contact at the Treasury department The institute will keep getting money And most importantly, the brothers are back together

Some of those comics can be better than cash worldwide

I never considered Ben much of an actor, but he was perfect for this role. I love this movie

I like how Ben manage to play a person on the spectrum this good. Can´t wait for the sequel.
