The plot follows Christian Wolff (Ben Affleck), a highly talented accountant who has an autism spectrum disorder.

From a young age, Christian has been a math prodigy, but has also faced significant challenges due to his condition.

Throughout his life, he has been educated by his father, an ex-military man who put him through rigorous training so that he could defend himself in a world that often rejects him.

This education leads him to become an expert in accounting, but also a criminal working for criminal organizations.

Christian leads a double life: on the one hand, he works as an accountant for legitimate companies, and on the other, he gets involved with criminals who need help to launder money and hide their illegal activities.

His life gets complicated when he takes on a new client, a robotics company called “Zachary S. McCall,” which has discovered a significant embezzlement in its accounts.

As Christian investigates, he realizes that there is something darker behind the company and that his life is in danger.

Concurrently, the film introduces Ray King (J.K. Simmons), a U.S. Treasury agent who is on Christian's trail.

King has been investigating Christian's activities and is determined to catch him, although it is unclear whether his intention is to stop him or to recruit him for his own gain.

As the story progresses, more details are revealed about Christian's past and his relationship with his family, especially his brother, who is also ex-military.

The film alternates between Christian's main narrative and King's investigations, creating increasing tension as they approach an inevitable showdown.

One of the highlights of “The Accountant” is the performance of Ben Affleck, who delivers a nuanced interpretation of a character with autism.

His portrayal of Christian is both powerful and moving, showing the character's internal struggle as he navigates a world that often doesn't understand him.

Anna Kendrick also shines in her role as Dana Cummings, an accountant who becomes Christian's ally and brings a touch of humanity and warmth to the story.
