Critic Reviews

  • Daniel M. Kimmel, Variety

    No one is going to see Lawnmower Man 2 for the acting, however; the film rises or falls on its special effects...

  • Andy Seiler, USA Today

    Mowing the lawn might be more involving than watching this subpar sci-fi sequel, which manages to be complicated and witless at the same time.

    The original I've always found to be very underrated and hated for no reason, and would even call it a favorite....but this sequel? It shows why movie sequels have a bad rap.

  • xGary X


    Sequel to the CGI based sci fi film that has nothing in common with it apart from the CGI. Some interesting cyber-punk inspired ideas, but it's executed far too amateurishly. Also, making the heroes a gang of irritating kids is the kiss of death.
