Movie Info
In this action-comedy, a urine sample mix-up leads Officer Burt Simpson (Dabney Coleman) to believe that he only has a short time to live. Set to retire, Burt realizes that the insurance payoff for a death in the line of duty would leave his son (Kaj-Erik Eriksen) and his ex-wife (Terri Garr) financially well-off. As Burt attempts to put himself in the line of fire, his suicidal actions fail to get him killed, but earn him a number of medals for his heroic actions.

Audience Reviews for Short Time
A cop a few days away from retirement, finds out that he has only a few days to live and that his insurance policy only pays out if he dies in the line of duty...so he goes all Mel Gibson trying to die in a blaze of glory. Hilarity ensues.
