Christian Wolff, accountant prodigy and vigilante, is asked to resolve the murder of a senior treasure official. With the help of his brother Braxton, he plunges into a complex investigation mixing money and conspiracies.

This improbable suite of the sympathetic film Mr. Wolff Released in 2016 saw the return of Ben Affleck and Jon Bernthal in their roles of cold killers, calculators and relentless. This opus abandons the coldness of the original film to generously lean towards the resolutely more comical Buddy Movie, losing a little of its originality in passing.
