For me the characters in Junebug were so interesting (for the most part) that they sucked me in, but then when it was over I just thought, "that's it?" I wanted it to be more. I don't mind a film that is set up as "a day in the life of" and goes nowhere, but this one seemed as though they were setting up something great and just couldn't figure out where to go with it. The one character that dissapointed me the most was the lead character's husband. He didn't seem to serve any purpose other than to be the reason she was with this family. I also didn't think they were very consistent with who he was. Different scenes seemed to give a conflicting idea of what the character was about. Almost like his sole purpose as a character was to facilitate the needs of the other characters.
