The Accountant 2 (2025) review

When her former boss Raymond King (J. K. Simmons) is murdered while searching for a missing family from El Salvador, Deputy Director Marybeth Medina (Cynthia Addai-Robinson) of the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (abbreviated FinCEN) contacts killer accountant Christian Wolff (Ben Affleck) to help her figure out who's responsible, but he happens to require some assistance himself, so he reaches out to his more extroverted brother Braxton (Jon Bernthal) to fly in and lend a little muscle.  Casting Affleck as an individual with autism was an odd decision for the first one although he is slightly better here - the "Romance Festival" scene in Boise is pretty fun - except filmmaker O'Connor, again working off a script by Bill Dubuque, decides to emphasize standard action movie elements by tossing away the number crunching aspect and re-using the old "long-lost sibling" trope.  The plot itself is still quite screwy, and somehow it ends up in Juárez where it seems to be influenced by Sound of Freedom: filthy children are being trafficked by "evil Mexicans," which inadvertently (or purposely?) reinforces America's xenophobic attitude towards our Southern Neighbor.
