Q-tips Say: YES, we did enjoy it. It is such a genuine heartwarmer that the ones who do give it a chance might be pleasantly surprised. It might not be cheery Christmas viewing, but Goodbye June certainly offers plenty of food for thought and makes for a compelling watch. The film’s tone is never solemn, and that’s appreciated.
