The Lawnmower Man [Region 2] description
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 |

Not the "integrated" complete version (Director Cut)
|
| Hi - This movie is one of my favorites movies talking about computer technology. Is based in a Stephen King story. The issue here is that this is not the complete movie. Several years ago I bought a VHS copy of "The lawnmower man - Director Cut", and in this version has all the deleted scenes integrated at the movie. I must agree that some of them integrated scenes at the movie are not making any sense, but can give us a complete vision of the original script (is a director cut) . In this version at DVD, the deleted scenes are added at the side B of the DVD and are not integrated at the movie. This is a shame because New Line Cinema could make a Director Cut version in dvd, and not this version. If you want to see the deleted scenes integrated at this movie, you must buy the VHS "Director Cut" version, or wait to see if New Cinema will release in the future the director cut in dvd |
