CommentsXp Best movie ever!

Winifred The movie is made so realistic it has a lot of that WoW feeling at the right moments and never tooo over the top. the suspense is done so well and the emotion is felt. Very well put together with the music and all.

Nigel P Crucial, with a film concerning a deeply troubled child, is the casting of the titular character. It is with relief to note that 9 year-old June is played by Kennedy Brice with all the awkwardness and sense of isolation required of an 'outsider', but she never slides into petulance or brattishness. After a difficult early life on a trailer park, she is adopted by Dave Anderson (mightily-jawed 'Starship Troopers' and 'Sleepy Hollow' actor Casper Van Dien) and his wife Lily (Victoria Pratt). The way their wholesome veneer of eager goodwill slowly becomes fragmented by June's strange behaviour is well played.And yet June is as much the victim of her 'possession' as anyone. Rather like early onset Alzheimer's disease, her moments of clarity are very appealing and heart-breaking, merged as they are by the bewilderment she feels as to her condition: she shares her body with an ancient supernatural being, of course. "She's a very special girl," we are told.Rather like a pre-teen 'Carrie (1976)', this tells the tale of one person's frightening possession very well, but where it doesn't deliver is ramping up the actual scares. The usually effective blackening-of-eyes effect used to signify inner darkness is creepy enough, but around the midway mark, it becomes apparent that this is as frightening as things are going to get.Ultimately, 'June' starts with a lot of promise, but finds itself constricted by its approach to the story of demonic possession and goes more than a bit 'sci-fi' towards the end. This nullifies any ability to scare and loses the connection with the audience in its carefully built-up first half. It is well done, but emerges somewhat tamer than I would have liked.

iam_theeridan 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.

hbusafwan This awful combination of unknown doctrine, silence and goofs which were gathered in 84 minutes worth nothing at all.Firstly, The religious part was fogy, unclear and just black. This "Harm" soul suppose to destroy the world! while it doesn't kill anybody even those who were close to her. and did nothing except to broke some dishes and drops some rain. I think, The characters which should represents the world were few! only fife or six! and the places were not better, Not more than 4 or 5 places!It is obvious that The time was not divided in a smooth way since the film summarized in the first and last 15 minutes. and lastly, The goofs are unforgeable (see the goofs part).Simply I don't recommend it.

emberstonepierce 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.
