1st watch 3/28/2004 4 out of 10 ( dir keith snyder ) represent unique but slow moving drama about a detective who be only give one week to live and hire someone to kill him so that he would not go out slowly . another story within this central theme and be the serial killer that he track down but we really do not get show much of this side of the story . scott wolf do a good job in his role a the detective but when a twist in the story occur and he decide he doesn not want to be kill and the movie just doesn not go anywhere . a very flat performance by tim roth in the role of the assassin doesn not help the story much and and gabriel byrne really doesn not do much with his role a the person wolf work thru to get the kill do . all in all this be a good try at a different kind of thriller but there not enough heart go into the making of this . there be some obvious small thing like edit mistake that make it clear that not a lot work be put into finish this but instead it be just put on the movie shelve as soon a it could .
