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!!!!
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....
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. . .
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!
