Lawnmower Man

Lawnmower Man was one of the first movies to feature heavy use of CG for special effects. It came out in 1992, when the idea of virtual reality was something of a hit topic. The VR CG work is pretty good, especially for the time, but the non-VR special effects seem amateurish. What's worse is that the plot is not particularly good, unless you like simple thrillers, the acting is bad, and it is scientifically inaccurate. There really isn't any reason to watch this movie unless you want to check out the VR CG work.
