Marijuana growers Jack (Billy Bob Thornton), Carter (Hank Azaria) and Harlan (Ryan Phillippe) are looking at a big payoff for their crop -- until head honcho Malcolm (John Lithgow) is murdered. Wanting a bigger piece of the proverbial pie, the three men decide to keep Malcolm's demise a secret, selling the stash themselves and pocketing all the profits. But, when they get involved with some very dangerous characters in the drug industry, the men start to question the wisdom of their scheme.

David Kronke Los Angeles Times Dec 11, 2018
"Homegrown" provides more of a contact high than the real thing. Go to Full Review
Leonard Klady Variety Mar 26, 2009
"Homegrown" is serious, funny, sinister, sexy, silly and a lot more. But it isn't particularly good in any one of those departments. Go to Full Review
Lawrence Van Gelder New York Times Jan 1, 2000
