There are some pretty big names involved with this - Robin Williams, Peter Dinklage, Mila Kunis and Melissa Leo - and some great cameos from an (uncredited) Louis C.K. to James Earl Jones - but I doubt it's going to make anyone's highlight reel. It's too slight a film - you don't have enough emotional connection to anyone for the story to make that big an impact - and the story (90 minutes to live - so let's run all over New York!) isn't exactly plausible (don't even get me started on the cheap effects). That being said, thanks to the big names involved, it has merit - as it is well-acted and just humorous enough to make it worthwhile.

It's not going to be one of his best movies

"My uncle died of one. One minute he was brushing his teeth, the next, he was dead. Didn't even have time to rinse."

Robin Williams was and remains for me a legendary actor. When I was young I watched "Mork and Mindy" and was always looking forward to witness the hyper-kinetic way of acting that this star in the making showed on the screen. When I heard the news about his death, I was speechless. The days after this sad news, masterpieces such as "Good Morning, Vietnam", "Dead Poets Society", "Good Will Hunting" and my favorite "Patch Adams" were broad-casted as a tribute. But I deliberately didn't watch them. In the same way I couldn't induce myself to watch "The angriest man in Brooklyn". Today I felt the time was right to finally see this great actor at work again. It's a typical …

Robin williams plays a apperently angry guy who finds out he has a brain tumour but the nurse is having a bad day and tells him he has 90 minutes to live which as it turns out could well be the case, he storms of and she goes to look for him. with the help of his brother played by peter dinklage ( game of thrones) .
This is really more of a drama with a kind of dark comedy. touch in places but it just doesn't work. williams seems of, which is rare for him . the title is silly and he isn't that angry to justify that title anyway. The small touches of humour is all pretty routine stuff, This movie just doesn't work its just one of those films. and there's no real happy ending and not enough substance to carry it. quite a dissapointment really for the actors involved.
is it worth …
