Somewhere between the sharp satire of Election and the rich human comedy of You Can Count On Me lies Juno, a sardonic but ultimately compassionate story of a pregnant teenage girl who wants to give her baby up for adoption. Social misfit Juno (Ellen Page, Hard Candy, X-Men: The Last Stand) protects herself with a caustic wit, but when she gets pregnant by her friend Paulie (Michael Cera, Superbad), Juno finds herself unwilling to terminate the pregnancy. When she chooses a couple who place a classified ad looking to adopt, Juno gets drawn further into their lives than she anticipated. But Juno is much more than its plot; the stylized dialogue (by screenwriter Diablo Cody) seems forced at first, but soon creates a richly textured world, greatly aided by superb performances by Page, Cera, Jennifer Garner and Jason Bateman as the prospective parents, and J.K. Simmons (Spider-Man) and Allison Janney as Juno's father and stepmother. Director Jason Reitman (Thank You For Smoking) deftly keeps the movie from slipping into easy, shallow sarcasm or foundering in sentimentality. The result is smarter and funnier than you might expect from the subject matter, and warmer and more touching than you might expect from the cocky attitude. Page's performance is deceptively simple; she never asks the audience to love her, yet she effortlessly carries a movie in which she's in almost every scene. That's star power. --Bret Fetzer

 Juno is Boss!!!! October 9, 2008
Here is one of the smartest, hilarious movies of the year.
The basic plotline: A smart-mouthed, 16-year-old girl gets pregnant by her geeky, adorable friend. She goes through a few pregnancy tests, calls up her friend to share her burden, frets for a moment and then bravely takes on the role of being a pregnant high schooler. Although, the ultimate theme of this film is a teenager dealing with pregnancy, it has a larger theme of the this incredible girl discovering life and love along the journey.
The whole movie is carried by this young girl, played by Ellen Page, and Ellen Page deserves all the hype that she got from this movie. Juno is quirky, smart, sassy, original and adorable and she is played with so much heart. She may be a teenager but she is a fabulous heroine and one of the most interesting film characters of the recent years.
Everyone in the movie is flawlessly casted from Michael Cera, who plays the guy responsible for Juno's pregnancy, to the store clerk who has a two-minute scene in the movie. I must say, Michael Cera totally brought sexy back in the geeks.
Like a good indie film, this movie was definitely anti-hollywood. The average looking folks were the smarter people and the geek wins the heart of the quirk. And although it is a comedy with laugh-out-loud dialogue, the movie is incredibly grounded by the solid acting and original script.
All in all, a great film experience you wouldn't want to miss.
I get by with a little help from my friends.... October 7, 2008
Life is messy and Juno needs help, not judgement. She made some bad choices (pre-marital sex) and got pregnant. This story of her trials and tribulations as a pregnant teenager would be great for discussion(s)/debate(s) for a high school health class. I love that it promotes family and pro-life. I purchased this movie along with the soundtrack and I love them both.
Terrifically hip, heartfelt and well-acted. . . September 30, 2008
Ellen Page is devastatingly funny and mesmerizing in the title role of a teenage misfit who suddenly finds herself in the unenviable state of pregnancy. The plot of this poignant, coming-of-age comedy revolves around Juno's quest to find the right couple to adopt her unborn child. Although Juno's eventual choice of a young well-to-do couple notably contrasts with her own lower middle-class existence, director Jason Reitman has a light touch that feels respectful and true to every one of the characters--from Juno's naive yet attentive boyfriend [Michael Cera] and her loyal best friend [Olivia Thirlby] to her careworn father and stepmother [played by J.K. Simmons and Allison Janney]and the somewhat troubled prospective young couple [Jennifer Garner and Jason Bateman] hoping to adopt Juno's baby. "Juno" is hip, alive, thought-provoking and funny in a way that is no small achievement amid the glut of sub-par movie-making these days! Page gives the kind of imaginative performance of someone far beyond her years. This is one movie that is not to be missed!
An overrated sensitive urban fable but also a tough gaze about the demolished affective adult relationships ! September 29, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
At first sight it would seem we are in front an amusing portrait about an irreverent girl who has been pregnant by his immature boyfriend a teenager who is really much more worried about a competence, absolutely unaware about the next role he should keep in mind in the next months to come.
On the other hand the stoic attitude of this smart little woman about the way she regards the affectively broken universe adult environment that surrounds her. Her parents are divorced an each one lives with his respective couple. We will never know about her mother, jut by a simple reference, she always sends her a cactus in her anniversary. On the other hand, her father is a patient and abnegate man who tries to aim his daughter in every moment and her stepmother, who experiences the most notable transformation in the film.
She becomes aware she is not prepared yet to educate her baby and so she decides to contact a young couple, in order to adopt him. Along the way we will witness the progressive affective crumbling of this couple.
An original proposal around this sensitive drama of the adolescent mothers.
Intelligent, Entertaining, and Sweet September 28, 2008
First off, I'm going to agree with the other reviewers who said that some of the opening scenes are pretty awkwardly written. That being said, "Juno" is a very well-done movie definetly worth watching. Ellen Paige breathes so much life into her unique character, a confident wierdo who's also very intelligent and complex, and there is no doubt you'll fall in love with her soon after meeting her. In fact, most of the characters are very well crafted, with the exception of maybe two, who are added for comedic effect but still sort of take away from the film. Definetly check this out, you'll enjoy it and maybe even love it.
