William Fichtner is the reason I liked this movie.


Like a lot posts on here The Accountant is indeed the best character ever. If it was not for William Fichtner then I would have not enjoyed this movi. He pretty much made this movie, I am a huge Fichtner fan anyway, as a matter of fact, I would love to see Willam Fihctner, Kim Coates, Neal McDonough, Jere Burns, Walton Goggins,, John Glover, star in an action movie together, along with Margo Martindale, Katey Sagal, Ron Perlman,

Fichtner is indeed awesome in this movie, playing The Accountant with wit and style.

What do you think this is, a signature? It's a way of life!

The Accountant stole the show

“How about DEAD Fat Fuck?”

“You won’t see me for another 52 years. YOU I’ll see in three months.”

You can’t beat Bill Fichtner!

But Charlotte Ross was pretty damn good.

Best line in the movie. I also liked "see you soon".

I kind of like
"440 or hemi, frank?"

reply

The 440’s for pussies. The Hemi is better. But the Chevy Porcupine Head is the best. The 454-cubic inch version of the Porcupine was in the Chevelle SS that Webster gave to Milton.

Head is always the best😈

I agree with you...and btw, John Glover played the Devil with rare relish in the short-lived series Brimstone. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if Fichtner's performance was inspired by Glover's -- both seemed to delight in and yet be contemptuous of evil.

Agree, he's awesome!




Don't you go dying on me!

You GOTTA see him play a gay detective in WHAT'S THE WORST THAT COULD HAPPEN. Excruciatingly funny, but dead-on.

William Fichtner is awesome and so is The Accountant. Love him and this movie 

Fitchner was a lot of fun, definitely the films strongest suit

One of the best character actors ever! I would love for him to find the right roll that would get him an Oscar nomination.

reply

absolutely loved him in this.
I really liked the movie it was so over the top Nic Cage, but the Accountant is really what brought it back from just bad to an awesome watch!

reply

William Ficthner is the best part of the movie. He steals the film.

Evne the end was great.

"You really were going to harm this baby weren't you?"
"That's what i thought, I'll see you soon.

reply

completely agree, william's character added lore and mythology to an otherwise ridiculous action flick, which was well appreciated by myself and im hoping others. it made hell as a character seem more interesting than most of the other characters in the film and yet hell and the accountant were barely shown but they made me want to see more content.
i actually hope there will be a sequel that takes place partially in hell, especially if it explains how milton managed to escape.

reply

That’s a rare thing: a sequel that I would actually watch!
