In the heartfelt comedy JUNE AGAIN, a twist of fate gives family matriarch June (Noni Hazlehurst) a reprieve from a debilitating illness. Much to their amazement, June re-enters the lives of her adult children, Ginny (Claudia Karvan) and Devon (Stephen Curry), and learns that 'things haven't gone according to plan'. With limited time but plenty of pluck, she sets about trying to put everything, and everyone, back on track. When her meddling backfires, June sets out on a romantic journey of her own and discovers she needs help from the very people she was trying to rescue.

The film has its rewards, mostly to do with Hazlehurst's luminous performance, but it could have been a contender.

The situation of dementia and how it affects a family is realistically and with a little humour depicted here.

There are moments of emotional manipulation but the strong cast, particularly Hazlehurst and Karvan, defy stereotypes and subvert the movie's more predictable twists.

I found this movie really quite boring. The beginning was interesting when June is being assessed & appearing symptomatic & lacking cognition, but then the whole movie was just a bore & dragged out aimlessly. At the very end it was interesting where she begins to lose cognition & insight again. But that's it. As a medical practitioner who works with dementia on a regular basis, this is definitely not a good reference to go by if someone is wanting to gain insight or learn about dementia & how it affects family dynamics. The VERY tiny parts at the start & finish are a drop in the ocean of what this disease is truly about. I've noticed alot of the positive reviews are from the 55 & over groups, so perhaps it isn't fitting for a younger person, even a health professional working with dementia regularly. I was easily distracted during this whole film & not kept entertained at all.

Nicely done with family drama explored and a rekindling of a family relationship. Sad perspective of someone suffering from dementia getting a reprieve from the disease.

Definitely does not belong in the genre "Comedy". Somewhat reminiscent of the 1990 film "Awakenings". I imagine this is an especially sad movie for those, like me, with a loved one suffering from dementia and for those who fear developing dementia. I guess you have to hang on to the positive results she set in motion, the fences she mended, during her brief period of lucidity. Personal growth/transformation takes place, which always adds depth to a movie. Very good acting, particularly Noni Hazlehurst and Stephen Curry. Great production values.

I really enjoyed June Again. Sends the message that don't take anything for granted and treasure your family. Dementia is a nasty, horrible disease. Loved that everyone got another chance even if for a short time.
