July Rising

Story about teenage girl going against odds to save family farm while everyone else tells her to sell. Good film production but lacklustre cinematography. Soundtrack is non-existent except for transitions. However, a complete story arc is there. Act two is a little slow at the start. The ending is good but too quiet.

I couldn't believe what I was seeing ... absolutely horrendous ... scenes chopped off in the middle ...

This is a slow winding film that has humorous moments wrapped up in an inevitable life changing drama. Highlights are the lead character's unrelenting determination even when the odds are stacked against her. Definitely a heroine drama, need more films that draw on the themes presented in this film. Bravo! And it's beautifully filmed on a pear farm, such a lovely cinematic journey.

If you live almost anywhere in the U. S there is a cultural divide between urban and rural life, and this film reveals the economic drivers that underscore this tension, but mostly the film treats the cultural/social issues sensitively and honestly. No cliches here and that is so refreshing.

If you want to take a nap watch this one.

Acting is so boring.

So an old white man work his ass off and had a profiting orchard that in his later years became not profitable due to changes in the poor quality of life of California

Tried to make it about a strong woman which could have really turned into a good story

Especially if she was successful even though she was also White

By the way I'm being smart it wouldn't have mattered the color of her skin but based on some of the other reviews on here it's just a joke what kind of movie this turned out to be and what it could have been

Really could have been a great story about a strong woman saving a beautiful profitable orchard and pass it on to the family if they're willing to work for it and by the way no matter the color of skin but someone with great character and good work ethic.
