In 1992, The Lawnmower Man was hailed as a CGI (computer-generated image) breakthrough. It's fascinating to consider it in a historical context, knowing it came just a year after Terminator 2: Judgment Day and was followed by Jurassic Park a year later. Written and directed by Brett Leonard, The Lawnmower Man focuses on a scientist (Pierce Brosnan) trying to utilize technology for governmental gain. As with all top-secret government projects in the movies, it goes horribly wrong. Forced to progress from a chimp to a human subject, Brosnan secretly recruits local backwards boy and lawnmower pusher Jobe (Jeff Fahey). The increases in intelligence are alarming. He learns Latin in two hours, becomes an object of sexual desire (apparently all it takes is cowboy boots), and then develops telepathic and telekinetic abilities. What the film ought to be remembered and appreciated for are the visuals, which undoubtedly advanced the arcade and home computer game industry. --Paul Tonks

Lawnmower Man is a great movie with a great storyline and fantastic visuals. The acting is believeable with both Pierce Brosnan and Jeff Fahey doing a slendid job. Lawnmower Man 2 should have been put in the lawnmower. When you hear about really bad sequels, this is what they were talking about. Just get Lawnmower Man as a single and you won't be disappointed.

Lawn mower man was a good picture,even though it's an older film it's still a good movie to watch.

If no one has heard of The Lawnmower Man series, this movie was a considered a breakthrough in movie magic in its time during the early 90's. Many people say this was the TRON movie of its era heavy on special effects and blazing visuals never seen in movie theaters. This was true and The Lawnmower Man was astounding when it first came out however it somehow lost its appeal since the special effects actually bring down the movie.

This is a good scientific movie about a doctor named Angelo running some tests using virtual reality on a mentally challenged man name Jobe. After doing the tests and taking some drugs, Jobe becomes smarter and more dangerous. After doing more tests and more drugs, Jobe tries to take over Virtual Reality and become a Computer god, but Dr. Angelo tries to stop him, even if it means blowing up everything he's worked for. If you love sci-fi, you'll love THE LAWNMOWER MAN!!!

This movie is great, a classic any science fiction fan can enjoy. The plot is based on a short story by Stephen King. I've never read the book, but it seems like King's work. Classic cyberpunk, virtual reality themes from the 90's. Some cool CGI special effects (for the time) and some good actors. I won't get into the plot, but basically its virtual reality gone wrong. I've watched this film many times, its worth owning if you are into VR and the like.
