Ben Affleck and Jon Bernthal become "bloodthirsty" brothers

The Accountant.

Released in 2016, “The Accountant” is a clever combination of action and crime genres, taking the theme of economics, leading the audience to solve difficult puzzles using both logical thinking and eye-catching action scenes.

The main character of the film is Christian Wolff, a genius accountant with autism, working for the bosses of the underworld. While investigating an embezzlement case involving a robotics company, Wolff gradually uncovers the dangerous plots of the big bosses, embarking on a difficult mission. However, no one knows that, in addition to being a smart accountant who seems "nerdy", Wolff also possesses formidable fighting skills.

Ben Affleck describes his character as lonely, longing for connection and romantic love. He is not good at expressing his emotions, but still seeks human connection in an awkward, somewhat humorous way.

The trailer begins with scenes of the daily life of accountant Christian Wolff. After difficult missions, he returns to his private life, cooking for himself or attending matchmaking sessions to find his other half after his failed relationship with Dana Cummings. However, the death of an “old acquaintance”, the head of the Treasury Department Ray King (JK Simmons), brings Wolff once again into a dangerous criminal investigation.

Realizing that he cannot “catch the enemy” alone, Wolff seeks the help of his younger brother Braxton (Jon Bernthal), the assassin who “came to blows” with him in the first part. The two brothers work together to confront a series of cunning and brutal enemies, uncovering the dark plots of the underworld.

If before, "The Accountant" conquered the audience with an interesting, neat and smoothly handled independent plot, in part 2, the film will still bring the audience back to the underworld, where crime and numbers are shown through the lens of director Gavin O'Connor, combined with a series of eye-catching action scenes.

The highlight of the new trailer for “The Accountant 2” is the harmonious interaction between the duo Ben Affleck and Jon Bernthal. If in the first part, the audience was both surprised and moved when the identities of both were revealed, then with “The Accountant 2”, director Gavin O'Connor will create a pair of extremely humorous brothers, compatible in both life and combat.

In particular, after the first early screenings, Jon Bernthal’s performance in “The Accountant 2” was commented by the audience as “excellent, charming and memorable”. The film also received positive scores such as 7.8/10 on IMDB or 84% on Rotten Tomatoes, promising a Hollywood action blockbuster not to be missed during the upcoming holiday season.
