    The Accountant 2, by Albert W. Vogt III

    Is it The Accountant 2?  I ask because during the opening credits, it was rendered as The Accountant2.  I get what they are going for since the main character, Christian Wolff… Read more “The Accountant 2, by Albert W. Vogt III”

    Now You See Me 2, by Albert W. Vogt III

    Since I recently became aware of Now You See Me 2’s (2016) existence, I figured I should go ahead and review it.  Actually, that is being uncharitable.  If memory serves,… Read more “Now You See Me 2, by Albert W. Vogt III”
