Action films have obviously been around forever but there’s a certain type of action film that has clearly influenced Contracts and its creators. Before John Wick in 2014, action films lacked originality and the explosiveness that that franchise has provided and has now influenced a whole host of filmmakers since. It’s fair to see that their are plenty of action flicks that just wouldn’t have seen the light of day if it wasn’t for John Wick’s success but to do something similar, on a very small budget, is a very hard thing to do. But that is exactly what Contracts tries to do.

After most of the film was shot, however, some feedback suggested turning it into a feature which led to several more years of both re-shoots and new scenes being added to meet the minimum run time. Starring Alex Chung, Jermaine Carty, Christena Gaunce, Dan Sanderson, Michael Carter, Kyle Stewart, Neil Bishop, & Giulio Calisse. It seems like there's not much of a story here,...
