Wish it would've had been that simple, when max is 1hp and you can't control what he does, really do be hitting different.. had 2 choices, either keep trying it by using unlimited bullet time or simply restart the whole lvl... i ended up restarting the entire thing again.

the mona babysitting max levels were a real anus, that's for sure
all you can really do is get used to the quickload key

Download a savegame online, and load that save.

Generally speaking, the parts where you have to babysit Max offer good opportunities to whip out your sniper rifle, for which you should be provided ammo the first time you have to.
While you can't control what Max does, the number of enemies and the range at which they engage him give you plenty of time to pick them off one by one. The distance between you and their aggro towards Max ensures you won't suffer for getting to and staying at a good vantage point, aquiring targets while not looking through scope and maximizing the time needed to neutralize threats towards Max. When Mona or Max say something about being pinned down or getting a better view, its time to leave Max and progress through the building.

TL;DR: Kill everyone quickly by spotting without scope, disregard your own cover.

It's pretty much a shooting gallery where the quickest way through is memorizing where all the enemies are. The babysitting bits are a lot more tolerable once you've been through them a few times but I love the construction site aesthetic and it would have been a lot better if they got rid of that ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ so I could focus on something else

Yeah sure, but that's not a viable strategy for ppl who haven't beaten that part of the game 4+ times already.

off-topic
I actually enjoy these segments, as they are the only parts dedicated to showing off what Mona is capable of, given that she's a hitman, and her signature weapon to fit the occasion.

That was my entire point

Developers will never learn, the best shooters are the casuals ones with good characters and great story. A gamer doesn't wanna feel like they're doing work because you made the game too hard, rather it be the whole game or just parts of it. For example, I was into Max Payne 2 until I started playing Mona and got to the point where you have a very short time to be a super sniper, killing all Max's targets and moving throughout the building to new post-up points for doing more sniper work.

The developers destroyed the game with that entry!

They're asking the gamer to be TOO perfect because not only do you have to be a perfect shot and do that fast on multiple moving targets, if you don't relocate fast enough, Max dies! That's the thing... Max dies too fast and you feel rushed the whole time because you are rushed. There is nothing casual about that part of the game at all, it's totally robotic in terms of you being perfect to get past it.

I don't think I can even finishe the game now and I wanted to see how the story ended since I finshed Max Payne 1.

Developers always tossing crap in a game because they think it's cool and great but never even consider what they're adding might be too much and break casual game play or even stress the crap out of the gamer and ruin their experience.

There were other parts of the game earlier I hated too but this Mona sniper thing was a death blow. 2K sucks!
