Amazon.com 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 Get to Know Juno's Cast  Ellen Page (Juno MacGuff) |  Michael Cera (Paulie Bleeker) |  Jennifer Garner (Vanessa Loring) |  Jason Bateman (Mark Loring) |  Allison Janney (Bren MacGuff) |  J.K.

Description Juno MacGuff (Ellen Page) is a cool, confident teenager who takes a nine-month detour into adulthood when she's faced with an unplanned pregnancy-and sets out to find the perfect parents for her baby. With the help of her charmingly unassuming boyfriend (Michael Cera), supportive dad (J.K Simmons) and no-nonsense stepmom (Allison Janney), Juno sets her sights on an affluent couple (Jennifer Garner and Jason Bateman) longing to adopt their first child.

16 is the new 40 May 15, 2008 In this fairy tale for adults [never seen so many happy endings to plot threads] global warming shows its upside. The Q10 factor kicks in and high school students have undergone that rapid maturing due to temperature rise which makes them SO ready to take over the world.
It was cute tho' and most everyone acted just fine - except the baby daddy who was so bland I can't remember his name.
Every Teenager Should See This Movie!!!! May 15, 2008 Great movie, every teenager should watch this one. A must have movie for every family.
Simply Awesome May 15, 2008 I purchased this movie to watch with my teenage daughter. Thought it would be a humorous way of introducing a topic that is actually not so humorous. It was witty, funny, sad all rolled up into one film. I would definitely recommend watching it.
Juno May 14, 2008 This is probably one of the best movies I have ever seen. Juno is funny, and has the Super Bad type of comedy, but is also deeper and has a better plot. Juno gets pregnant by Paulie Bleeker, and can't go through with an abortion. She picks a couple to adopt her baby, and just wants a good life for her baby. It is never a question of whether she would keep her baby, she always wants to give it up for adoption. Bleeker, meanwhile, loves Juno and you see the trials of their relationship throughout the movie. She seems to be the one more scared of commitment. The adoptive parents are obviously not happily married, so the ending has a surprising twist that you don't expect, but realize it's the best way for the movie to go. The movie has a great ending that is heartfelt and will have the viewer satisfied. I highly recommend this movie.
Terrible May 14, 2008 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
I can't believe this was written by a woman. The dialogue is totally unbelievable, abortion clinics are horribly portrayed, and Ellen Page is totally unrealistic. She cries once. And takes pregnancy tests in public, discussing them in an offhand manner with the convenience store clerk. I found it insulting. Allison Janney is awesome, and so is Jennifer Garner, but those are the only likeable characters. Well, and Michael Cera, of course.
