I actually liked Cusack the best in this film..showed the better part of his acting capabilities, but was not a great choice for Freeman who didn´t really fit well with this the movie. Idea of film was good but the writing an production lacked hugely which is why the film only got 3 stars from me. Would recommend this film to be watched only via rental.. And summed up by saying A good rental film. Currently The Contract has an overall rating of 6 over 10.
