Movie #1336 ........................."The Accountant"

Movie #1336 "The Accountant" was a strange one.  Once again, this is not a movie that would be my cup of tea.  I think the climax is about a 20 minute machine gun (or whatever the weapon was) shoot out.  The movie plodded from the very beginning , and I'm sure I fell asleep through some of the middle, which didn't help with trying to put this rather detailed and too long  story together, but I didn't care about it enough to relook at what I missed.  So  I thought, maybe I shouldn't write a blog on it, but then  I felt I could still tell as many people as possible that this is one dark, detailed/possibly too detailed story with way too much violence and be safe in doing that.  I read somewhere that it might have been an attempt to make a hero out of an autistic kid?  but it's way too dark to do that...... now, that being said, I DO realize that those out there reading this that want a good action film, might want to look at this because I think it covers all bases for that........and it's got that "kind of different" slant to it, so for you action seekers, this might be a look see, but if you don't like violence, don't bother with this!  I give it 2.8 out of 5.

"THE ACCOUNTANT"    2016    R     2 hours, 8 min
