Movie Review: BABY DRIVER

As a director, Edgar Wright has found himself quite a following with his Cornetto Trilogy (Shaun of the Dead, Hot Fuzz, The World’s End) and Scott Pilgrim vs. The World.  These are all films that I love, some more than others, with Scott Pilgrim being my third favorite film of all time.   But it seems that another one of his films has now made it into my Top 10, and that film is Baby Driver.

Movie Review: THE ACCOUNTANT

The Accountant is a 2016 action-thriller directed by Gavin O’Connor (notable for his films Warrior and Miracle) and is the story of Christian “Chris” Wolff who is a forensic accountant/financial consultant who does work for dangerous people and has a very particular set of skills (to steal from another film) that make him lethal. This film stars Ben Affleck, Anna Kendrick, Jon Bernthal, J.K. Simmons, Cynthia Addai-Robinson, and John Lithgow. This is an extremely strong and intriguing film that is one of the best action films of the year.
