《夜間動物園》是羅桑一鳴驚人之作，也是加拿大金尼獎史上獲獎最多的影片，而它怪異逆轉的影片調性，也極為罕見。電影前半段，出獄的男主角急於重建過去的情感，還要躲避貪污警察的騷擾，充滿黑暗的元素與挑逗的氛圍。後半段父子關係登場，尤其當男主角盡全力要達成父親死前狩獵旅行的夢想時，簡直煽人淚下。其叛逆、震撼、及情感充沛的程度，見證了一個瘋狂天才的誕生。 A man released from prison, attempts to rebuild his relationship with his father, while being pursued by two corrupt cops for drug money he's alleged to possess. Night Zoo is a searing depiction of violent crime, street life, corrupt cops and the loss of the lead character's father, another point which figures strongly in Lauzon's personal life.
