Contour (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure This $5000 production out of San Francisco will completely blow you away on the action side of things and try your fast-forward reflexes during everything else. The story about drug-runners and a guy who gives tours is nothing but padding between some of the most exhilarating fight scenes of the year. Ignore the nails on a chalkboard acting and concentrate instead of the ball-bustlingly perfect (in direction, editing, and performance) fisticuffs that make up 2/3 of this opus. Mark my words, director/star/editor Eric Jacobus is going to be blow up in the action world any day now. I only hope he promises never to write again. Ever. The DVD is stacked with a better than average commentary, a thorough hour long making of doc, some STUNTPEOPLE short films and tons of bloopers that will have you wincing every 10 seconds.

One of the most entertaining action flicks in a long time. Regarding the action-ranks right up there with any Hollywood or Hong Kong mega budget production .
Contour is an off the wall hilarious slapstick with great references to the 1980's martial arts film. Good review. And agree with your opinion about Eric Jacoubs.
