I found this movie after scanning through the HBO channels one night, and I'm glad I did. This is a very touching film. Honestly, I'm surprised I haven't seen it shown again or haven't seen people talk more about it, which is a shame because I think this movie is quite exceptional.
The story is that of a Russian nuclear facility worker, who through unfortunate events and circumstances, is exposed to a lethal dose of radiation. The facility tries to hide the actual condition he is in, but he eventually stumbles upon the truth. Knowing his life is cut down to a matter of days, the movie follows his path of selling plutonium he has stolen from the facility in order to make money for his family.
I wholeheartedly recommend this movie. If you can buy this or watch it, do so! You will not regret it.

There is so much emotion packed into such a small amount of time. I try to watch it whenever it's aired. Created as a prequel for character the Tin Man from The Wizard of Oz, it tells the story of the violence, love, sacrifices, and the reason for the Tin Man's missing heart.
Some of the actors are a bit bad, but overall, the message gets across perfectly. The music is a simple acoustic bit that follows along and fits great. I think how it's filmed in black and white is also very fitting and sets the mood. This short might not have been as good if it was in color, in my opinion.
All in all, a great film. Find it, watch it.

Out of every single movie I have ever seen so far, this is definitely in my "top 5 worst movies category". After reading some of the previous reviews, I'm somewhat confused. Why do you feel the need to give a movie 10 stars just to "balance things out"? That's not the point of a review. The point of a review is to be truthful and evaluate the overall film, not to be biased because you were involved in it. With that said. the fact that this person worked on the movie doesn't surprise me at all.
The acting? Horrible. Dialogue? Horrible. Storyline? ... You get the idea. I would only recommend this to people lacking taste in movies. It is honestly that bad. The only reason why I didn't feel cheated was because I watched this at my friends house. Luckily, I didn't pay for the rental, but I still lost 90 minutes of my life on this film. He's in the military, and even he thought this movie was awful. If there are movies made in Hell, this one's it.
