June

More a dark supernatural thriller than a horror, this is not an annoying movie when so many real horrors are.

It is somewhat forgettable though, enlivened by what is actually a very poignant and charming depiction of a child without a place to call home.

Fairly effective as propaganda for making the adoption process much easier.

June isn't terrible, but it's also not anything special. Decent acting, overused plot, and subpar effects. A lot of what happens in the movie doesn't even seem relavent to the main story. It's all just glossed over, and never really goes in depth about anything which leads up to the climax being pretty anticlimactic and rushed. It makes for decent background noise at the very least.

To be fair, I've seen a lot worse films. This is a supernatural thriller which takes its influences from films such as 'Carrie', 'Bless the Child' and 'The Omen' so don't expect to see much originality. The acting's not bad but the script leaves a lot to be desired - I guess you can only work with what you're given. The narrative is rather simple and brings nothing new to the genre, however the cinematography is superb and a joy to watch. It's entertaining enough as movies go, but I can't help feeling that it could have been so much better. You're never going to make a film as beloved as the classics (The Omen, Rosemary's Baby etc) but with a more interesting plot, that stands up on its own, things could have been greatly improved.

No time like October to watch June. This film starts with a sacrifice taking place in the woods at night. Things get fouled up and the baby gets saved from death but only after getting hit by beams of light from the sky. The baby was June who is around ten now and circling around the foster scene. She is a very different child which makes her a target of ridicule and when she gets angry instead of turning green she has scanner type powers where she causes bad things to happen. She can even stop rain. The crux of the story is that she needs to complete the ritual they started all those years ago.

This wasn't too bad but you don't really care for any of the characters. Some of the things she can do is pretty cool. Mediocre at best but there are a thousand others worse.

I enjoyed the movie, however, was the budget for this movie low, That they couldn't have a wardrobe change... The little girl was in the same outfit every single day. That kind of bothered me, if they cared so much for that little girl, by her address.
