June (2015) Reviews

Initial Thought: I think I saw a teaser for this like years ago. I was curious if it was a real thing or not. It looks to be that it is. From what I've heard though it's a bit average or below. Well I'd like to see for myself.

Characters/Acting: There are a few recognizable faces here with the biggest being Casper Van Dien. That doesn't give this much promise in ways of acting. I know it's a kid naming the demon, but come on "Air" is such a lackluster name. The acting is fine, but really nobody is particularly outstanding. Casper Van Dien was quite wonderful here. In fact his character was the only one I liked and found interesting. If only 9 years passed and Lily was somewhere around 15 give or take how can she look to be in her late 30s early 40s. Even if Lily was 18 she would be 27 and Victoria Pratt Definitely can't pass for that. That makes the casting here quite dreadful.

Story: A coming-of-rage story about discovering your true self and overcoming your inner demons to find love in a chaotic world. That's a pretty cheesy plotline if you ask me. That opening was actually pretty good and would work very well as a title sequence for a television series. The cinematography is nice and I like the visuals of June's episodes. The music was a bit repetitive, but at first it was kind of nice. It's a pretty cliche story. In fact I seriously don't think I saw any originality through the entire thing. The twist was seriously obvious. Wow that ending was so lame.

Directing/Writing: Neither the director or the writer have much credits to their name. The director made some other Devil movie a couple years back I've never heard of. The writer on the other hand wrote some cheesy looking spiritual movie like 10 years ago. There is not much hope at all now that this is going to be very good. Well as I thought this didn't go well. It was a mash up of other movie ideas only with no scary factors to it. Hopefully these filmmakers don't add anymore crap to their names.

Final Thoughts: This was so boring. It's cliche. I mean seriously everything here has been done before and way better. There is nothing scary about it. The twists are useless. The acting was alright I guess. The only saving grace here was Casper Van Dien. He was just awesome here in my opinion.
