The Contract (2006)
7/10
The Morose Bastard Meets God
18 July 2007
176 people on Facebook people can't decide if they "Dig John Cusack or the Morose Bastard He Plays". 2427 more "Want Morgan Freeman to Narrate My Life". So what happens when God becomes a contract killer, the Morose Bastard turns into a stressed-out dad dealing with teenage angst from his son, and the two meet on a unlikely hiking trip? A dark twist of your trite Pleasantville family camping trip, into an thrilling adventure which includes grappling down a rainy cliff, hiking across a fickle moraine, and sharing a donut with FBI snobs from D.C. John Cusack and Morgan Freeman do a terrific job with a run-of-the-mill script and despite uneven editing, there's a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow…uh…movie! The finale is truly ironic piece of work.
