The Contract (2006)


The Contract

The Good:
The main storyline was decent.
Morgan Freeman is a pleasure to watch in nearly any film.
Beautiful scenery (though honestly underutilized).

The Bad:
Morgan Freeman's character's motivations were difficult to discern (this was a minor qualm really).
John Cusack was disappointing.
Some of the things that happened were just too predictable.
The subplots were shallow.
Most of the characters were 2D.
The "father-son bonding" crap was just not believable.

Overall: To see an interesting outdoors adventure, I recommend you rent The Edge instead.
