Watch June in January For Free

Surprisingly incoherent and boring

How sad is this?

In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

I caught the last 20 minutes of the movie - which was more than enough to understand the entire plot. Could there have been any more clichés thrown into this one? a) Mother-in-law doesn't approve and tries to break up marriage - but comes around in the end. b) Dead mother of the bride speaks from the graves. c) girl is made to feel bad for wanting a wedding she has dreamed of "because in the end, it isn't about the ceremony, it is about the one you love." d) potential sabotage, but in the end, the day is saved. e) all is right with the world.I am a romantic myself, but this was so nauseating.... Granted this is the same corporation that makes all of the sappy cards we give out on every holiday.

Wow......Hallmark is literally my FAVORITE channel on Comcast! So much so that my husband makes fun of me for watching all the "corny" movies. I never care what he thinks because I absolutely LOVE the Hallmark movies! I think they are sweet and poignant and I totally love them.........UNTIL!!!!!! UNTIL I came across this movie, June in January!! It's a lovely enough movie but there is a scene where the main character and her fiancé are running through the park and she is telling him how she thinks his mother doesn't like her and that she is sure she had someone better in mind for her son to marry than a nurse" and he said, "ya but you're a Nurse Practioner" and she says, "oh like your mom knows the difference?" WTF??? Like being a nurse isn't prestigious enough?!! Now we all have to be Nurse Practitioners to be recognized?? I am a Registered Nurse and I went to school for 4 years to be one. I make more money than a lot of CEO's of companies and that is coming from a "head hunter" who used to find jobs for CEO's! I find that whole scene BEYOND offensive to all my fellow Registered Nurses and I am thoroughly disgusted with Hallmark that you allowed such a scene to be put in one of your movies. How dare you! I have worked so long and hard in my career and frankly most nurses I know blow doctors away with their intellect and saviness!! Anyway....I had no idea where to direct my anger, so I chose to display it here on IMDb! Thanks to anyone who got this far in the review! I appreciate you reading my post!Ps....I don't also mean to put down doctors because there are so many wonderful docs who deserve our admiration. peace,Lisa :)

Leave it to Hallmark to totally sweeten down a great plot. A wealthy woman practically conspires with her secretary to prevent the former's son from marrying a girl she feels to be totally unsuitable for him.Marilu Henner steals the show as the conniving mother with a cold veneer. I thought they would have made her as cruel as a Bette Davis could be.Our bride-to-be, a lovely girl, had always planned with her mother what type of wedding she would have down to every last detail. With her mother dying, the girl still wants it the way she planned and her future mother-in-law use that to her advantage to plan everything instead, especially when the marriage has to be moved up as the groom has accepted a high job in an extremely prestigious law-firm.There's the girl's widowed dad with his new girlfriend, reading the letter that her mother sent. There is the assistant as vicious as ever.Henner does a total double-take when she sees she is overwhelmed. The secretary, who is fired, plans one last act of revenge. Remember, this is Hallmark, so all must end with a sugary taste.

Brooke D'Orsay is getting married to Wes Brown in only a few weeks and she has a wedding to plan. She turns into Bridezilla and freaks out when future mother-in-law Marilu Henner tries to help because not every detail is just as she imagined it would be.This is a movie quite evidently aimed at women. Mr. Brown doesn't care about the details of their wedding and neither do I. This makes Miss D'Orsay's mania obnoxious. Since I did not care about Miss D'Orsay, I do not care about the details of her wedding, Mr. Brown's is a handsome but rather bland character and even the old pros don't give me much of interest, even though they turn obnoxious in order to give some sense of dramatic conflict to the movie.By the time that happens and the inevitable crisis occurs, I had lost interest and expect that every man whose girlfriend makes him watch will do likewise. I also believe that a lot of women who believe that a wedding is a nice party and that it's the marriage that counts will feel the same.
