Sometimes when you watch a movie and you really like it (as I did with The Accountant), you are so excited to hear about a sequel. But then the sequel comes out and it leaves you with that “maybe you should have just stopped while you were ahead” feeling….
This could not be further from the truth with The Accountant 2.
I LOVED THIS MOVIE SO MUCH!
In fact, the world NEEDS The Accountant 3. Someone please tell me another sequel is in the works. The brother duo of Christian Wolff (played by Ben Affleck) and Braxton (played by Jon Bernthal) may go down as one of my favorite on-screen duos of all time. I love them together.
Without giving anything away, my two favorite scenes in The Accountant 2 to watch for (and you’ll know exactly the scenes I’m referring to if you’ve seen it because I bet you loved them, too):
1. The Line Dancing Scene
2. Braxton’s Pet Adoption
It’s just gold.
At the time of me writing this, both The Accountant and The Accountant 2 are streaming on Amazon Prime Video. Go back and rewatch the first one and go right into the second for a double feature. You won’t regret it.
Want to chat with Laura McKenna about your favorite onscreen duo? How about a great movie you’ve recently seen?

Keep your cooler chilled without ice with this awesome trick. As you prepare for your next road trip, forget filling your cooler with ice.
