Short Time is one of those quirky gems from the early '90s that blends action and comedy in a unique way. The plot revolves around Detective Burt Simpson, played by a solid performance that balances desperation with dark humor. The pacing is a bit uneven at times, but the bizarre premise keeps you engaged. The film's atmosphere is both silly and oddly reflective, as Burt's impending 'death' gives him this new outlook on life. I mean, who thinks about life insurance this way? The practical effects and action sequences are not top-tier but have a certain charm. Overall, it's a distinctive take on the buddy cop genre with an offbeat twist that makes it memorable in its own right.
