The Contract

Filed under C - DVD Movie Club

A very well put-together film with a storyline that is unique enough to stand out amid the mindless drivel and overdone plot themes that are repeated throughout action dramas. Morgan Freeman is a hitman who finds himself in custody after a vehicle wreck hospitalizes him. Some of his friends attempt to free him and he ends up on the shores of a wilderness stream, only to be found by a backpacking father (John Cusack) and his son. They decide to get involved and escort him back to civilization where he can be apprehended, but first they must overcome the obstacle of having a team of four professionally trained hitmen following them.
