Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe original script envisioned John Milton as a 70 year-old man and the producers were looking for an actor reasonably close to that age to play the part. When Nicolas Cage expressed interest, however, they decided to make the character's age irrelevant and cast Cage instead.
- GoofsAfter Piper drives off from the diner and the Charger begins smoking, the needle on the speedometer drops to zero when the engine quits and she coasts to the side of the road. The speedometer is not controlled by the engine and would have still shown the speed. The tachometer would have dropped to zero when the engine quit running.
- Quotes
The Accountant: Satan is simply the warden of a very large prison. Quiet man, actually, thoughtful, and he's well-read. And I happen to know the idea of sacrificing children in his honour annoys him greatly.

Featured review
The film's marketing material from trailers to physical copy action up to promises something pretty.
Many promising actors, Cage, Heard, Fichtner among others. In part, it works. Interesting plot, etc. But still, this potential movie is missing a lot. Especially the final scene .., as if the budget ran out in the middle. So after a promising start, everyone somehow slips down.
So I looked at this for the second time. The memory image was something better, the third time will not come.
