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.
