Description	Tom Sizemore delivers a powerhouse performance as Max Walker, an empty, bitter man who has decided to commit suicide. Instead of leaving a note, he hires struggling young film student Bud (Corey Sevier) to document the last day of his life. As Bud and his camera follow, Max roams the city sharing confessions, realizations and rants, confronting his former boss and ex-wife, and committing acts of insanity, heroism and possibly murder. But before the last bullet can be fired, will a final shocking revelation change both their lives forever? Ving Rhames and Saul Rubinek co-star in this startling drama about one man's journey of rage, hope, and sorting through the pieces of A Broken Life.

This guy is the definition of a raving lunatic. I can only hope for his sake someone puts him in the luny bin where he belongs. Another hour and a half wasted. Save your time viewing this one and choose something else, you'll thank me later.

This is the best dramatic performance I've ever seen Tom in. I have always liked Tom Sizemore because of his gritty, hard-nosed attitude portrayed in several action and war movies. At first I thought it was going to be dull by description, but I liked the actors. Then after 10 minutes, my interest was caught, hook, line and sinker. I am glad to have given this movie a chance, and I am determined to find it and add it to my collection. Although, I am a little puzzled with the part played by Ving Rhames, who I think is another fine actor. I believe the storyline hits home in the portrayal of how life can effect the thoughts and ideas that run rampant in the minds of everyday people. Thanks to the writers, producers and directors and to Hulu.

I am so happy I didn't turn this off. Unfortunately, Tom seems high the entire movie which kinda added to his acting. Can't say much more without spoiling it but I am shocked to find Rotten Tomatoes giving this a 19% spoiled rating.
