 Great movie - Great Package August 14, 2008
This movie is the sleeper favorite of 2008. It should have won the awards it was nominated for. Ellen Page is brilliant. Michael Cera is perfect. Jason Bateman is his usual wonderful to watch.
Brilliantly written. Brilliantly acted. The great story, quirky humor, and wonderful acting makes this a must watch.
Juno August 3, 2008
What is a teenager to do when she finds herself pregnant and unmarried? Ellen Page solves this problem in a masterful way in this well acted comedy. Great supporting cast.

Tends to glamorize teen pregnancy and make it seem "fun" and easy to get rid of.

Ellen Page does a stand up stand out job as Juno. Man I love this type of humour it kind of reminds me of Ellen Muth in the Dead Like Me series. Its not fall out of your seat slapstick comedy, its way more tounge in cheek but I tend to like that style of comedy. Its is well written and the dialouge is fantastic. Great movie, great cast, watch this movie.
GOOD MOVIE July 27, 2008
JUNO
I always seem to catch movies after they are done being super popular -- but this movie always will be popular, as it is well done and very good. Loved the acting. Ellen Page was super; she is cute, and her character was funny, quirky, and different. She knew she was different and it didn't bother her.
The acting of Allison Janney and J. K. Simmons as Juno's parents was superb. They were also funny, supportive, and when told Juno is pregnant, they were really calm!!! Too calm? Had my young daughter come to me and told me she was pregnant, I would not have handled it as calmly and well as the MacGuff's did. Perhaps they are better people than I am? Anyway, I would have totally supported my daughter and been there for her every step of the way -- however, I KNOW I would have totally freaked out when told the news. Maybe that is just me --
What I didn't enjoy about the movie was how Juno -- at first -- seemed uneffected by being pregnant. How she referred to the baby as IT -- how she seemed to have no restrictions in her young life.
What I liked about the movie was how, after a while, Juno wanted to find the PERFECT and RIGHT family for her baby. I liked how Juno could not get an abortion. I liked how her family stood by her and were there for her. I liked that Juno cried after she gave birth and gave the baby up.
I would think this movie does not sensationalize getting pregnant young. I think this movie was entertaining and full of good points; showing young girls that being pregnant and having a child is a huge commitment; one they need to be ready for. Juno did show this and was also entertaining and had some good family values. Being there for each other is so important, right?
I would recommend JUNO and am glad that I FINALLY sat down and watched it! Ellen Page is one good actress and I hope we see more of her.
Thank you!
Pam
