ADHD-DVD, Episode #9: The Accountant

This week, it's tax time! We crunch the numbers and list a spare bedroom as a home office to boost our returns with the autism-as-a-superpower action thriller The Accountant (2016), directed by Gavin O'Connor, starring Ben Affleck, Anna Kendrick, J.K. Simmons and Jon Bernthal, along with a murderer's row of character actors in a movie that plays on American cable TV all the time. This is a big time Dumb Guy Movie, and your intrepid hosts have mixed opinions on how much it worked for them, but it makes for lively discussion in our longest show to date.

Before we start in on this week's movie however, we go deep and spoiler-y on Scream VI (now streaming on Paramount+), and Justin gives his thesis on Mission: Impossible 2 being perhaps the most important pop culture event of the 21st century.

The Accountant is not currently available for streaming in Canada at the time of publication, though you can buy it on DVD for $6 at Sunrise Records.

We'll be back next week with Affleck in the director's chair as we discuss Gone Baby Gone.
