"You think if you don't fight back then maybe they'll like you, stop picking on you and calling you a freak? Well, here's what it is. They don't like you, they don't dislike you. They're afraid of you. You're different. Sooner or later, different scares people." - Christian’s father

Why watch this? It's one of the most intelligent action movies in a long time.

Plot Summary: Christian Wolff, a math savant with high-functioning autism, works as a freelance forensic accountant for dangerous criminal organizations. He takes on a legitimate client, a robotics company, where a financial discrepancy leads him to uncover a conspiracy and become a target. As a Treasury agent closes in, Christian must use his unique skills to protect himself and others while uncovering the truth.

Dad's Preview: A while back, I started to trust Ben Affleck, both as actor and director. This tight thriller about a modern day vigilante is unique and interesting. The premise, including Wolff's autism, is brilliant. There is a strong supporting cast in Simmons, Bernthal and the ever-delightful, and surprising, Anna Kendrick.
