 An experience, a journey, a friendship to remember June 18, 2009
Ankur Mukherjee
The film is truely an experience to remember, I didn't keep any or very little expectations from this film and it turned out to be one of the very best films in Drama. The film is very rare and I consider myself lucky to have watch this film, it follows a unique story, an unusual friendship between a little girl and an adult man. The little girl played very smartly and beautifuly by Mischa Barton. Rockwell and Barton show a wonderfull strong chemistry on screen, simply remarkable performences delivered by both the co-stars. Its a very unusual film, yet a wonderfull experience. It's quite rare that films reach a level of perfection. 'Lawn Dogs' is certainly one of them. The emotions are potrayed beautifully and the film is simply beyond words. The dvd stands proudly on my shelf. A true gem.

... you will not be disappointed! EXCELLENT movie with outstanding performances by all. Mischa Barton's amazing debut combined with Sam Rockwell's brilliance equals a most heart-wrenching tale. The unlikely friendship between a young lawn service man and a 10 year old girl, who are both "outsiders," is interlaced with the drama of an affluent neighborhood and it's dirty little secrets. The relationship between the two main characters becomes perverted in the minds of the other players, when in reality it's the only pure thing in the story.
A timeless classic. January 19, 2009

There aren't many movies that I can watch more than once, this is one exception. The story, music and performance from the main characters are top notch. When are we going to get a Blu-Ray release or at least an anamorphic wide screen release of this movie? Patiently waiting...
Mischa's Debut August 12, 2008
G. Cramer (Seymour, IN)
Having seen Mischa Barton in some of her other films and seeing that she is a good actress, I was delighted to find this one as her debut film.
Very intertaining and one that I'll enjoy watching over and over.
Sam Rockwell, an amazing yet under-rated actor! April 29, 2008

Most everyone has seen the movie, "The Green Mile" and although they may not remember the actor who played the deranged, yet comical "Wild Bill", they certainly remember the character. Rockwell is one of the rare actors that can display range. In this movie, he plays a humble, blue-collar 'country-bumpkin' who may not be educated or have been graced with the opportunities and status of those he mows lawns for, but nonetheless, has a keen sense of reality and truth about him. He truly brings heart to the movie and Misca Barton doesn't do too bad of job herself. It's a movie about friendship, societal differences/conflict, as well as the misunderstanding and prejudice that occurs when the two join. Be prepared to be have your heart-wrenched, yet lifted. A great addition to any collection.
