Movies starring John Lynch

The Secret Garden (1993)

101 mins     Drama, Family, Fantasy      

I have mentioned this before but I believe that movies which are adapted from classic children's literature work because of that nostalgic connection, that warmth of memory which comes flooding back when they see a cherished ...

Sliding Doors (1998)

99 mins     Comedy, Drama, Romance      

What if one day when you left for work you turned right instead of left, you may have a different journey but in the end do you arrive at the same place? That idea is pretty much what "Sliding Doors" starring Gwyneth Paltrow ...

Alien Hunter (2003)

92 mins     Action , Sci-Fi, Thriller      

I knew what to expect when I sat down to watch "Alien Hunter", well any movie on one of the lesser channels being shown when most people are sleep is usually going to be poor and little more than a slot filler. So when "Alien...

Lassie (2005)

100 mins     Adventure , Family      

Before contemplating what I was going to say about this 2005 version of "Lassie" I had a look back at what I wrote for the 1943 version "Lassie Come Home". And pretty much everything I said about that 1943 version could be sa...

Holy Water (2009)

93 mins     Comedy, Drama      

I am going to keep this review of "Holy Water" to three things and the first of those is stereotypes, the broadest stereotypes going. We have the old man who sits in front of the TV with his cap on, the crafty one always look...

Black Death (2010)

102 mins     Action , Drama, Horror      

My love of movies causes both pleasure and pain because there are very few movies I will refuse to watch. Sometimes you can find yourself watching an unexpected gem whilst other times you may find initial fears of boredom com...

The Hot Potato (2011)

96 mins     Comedy, Crime      

"The Hot Potato" strangely reminds me of "Carry on Columbus" despite being very different movies. "Carry on Columbus" failed to capture what the "Carry on" movies were about two decades earlier and in the same way "The Hot Po...

Private Peaceful (2012)

102 mins     Drama, War      

Every review I browsed as I looked for information on "Private Peaceful" mentioned the Michael Morpurgo novel it was based on and how good it was, even those who didn't think much of the movie mentioned how the book moved the...
