 a good film about the dilemmas facing teenage mothers August 20, 2008

The dialogue in Juno was a bit unbelievable at times with teenagers talking so learnedly and confidently that it was hard to imagine they were teenagers finding their way in the world.Ellen Page - who played Juno - put in a very engaging and cativating performance as a pregnant 16 year old who wants to give her baby up for adoption.I didn't like the soundtrack to the film - the songs were either by simon and garfunkel or were a poor attempt to imitate them.But overall I would recommend this film to you if you want to see something br /humorous and sensible with good family values in it and a strong sense of morality, as well as having a nice little love story thrown in.
 A pregnant pause... August 18, 2008

Juno was is pretty good, and is about a 16 year old girl getting pregnant and giving the baby up for adoption. The story is quite warm, often funny. An all round good indie film with a great alternative acoustic sound tracker. br / br /But throughout the film, no-one seems to take the pregnancy seriously, and 16 yr old Juno is far too sassy, and her parents far too supportive. br / br /If you like Garden State, then give this a try. br / br /
 Juno, the freshest film going! August 18, 2008

Ellen Page plays the quirky teenager Juno in this hip drama/comedy. She leads an incredibly strong cast (Michael Cera, Allison Janney, Jennifer Garner, Jason Bateman J.K. Simmons) through the 9 months of her pregnancy when she then plans to give the baby up for adoption to the seemingly perfect parents, Garner Bateman, however, not all goes as planned and it ends up being an emotional rollercoaster with lots of laughs along the way. The film cleverly addresses the issues of abortion and teenage pregnancy without giving the message that teen pregnancy is easy. The feeling of the film echoes that of Little Miss Sunshine but both are completely different stories. br / br /-The actors are superb (Never before have I seen such an ensemble that delivers the whole script so realistically) br /-The script is unbelievably original (Written by Diablo Cody, Academy Award Winner for this film!) br /-The soundtrack is better than on any other film I have seen (apart from musicals) featuring songs from The Moldy Peaches, Kimya Dawson, The Kinks, Antsy Pants and Barry Louis Polisar. br /-It delivers laughs and moments of sadness without being cheesy and also sends good messages for a young target audience br /-It's not a chick flick br / br /I would recommend it to anyone and everyone looking for something to cheer them up or make them smile! Buy it!
I was bored, I tittered, I cringed, I cried. And cried. And cried August 17, 2008

Initially I thought 'oh no, another piece of artsy fartsy tat', but then I got into it and started to appreciate the characters and their complimentary family structure, and the fact that her parents are accepting and supportive of her desicions. Everyone here has some depth to them yet very little actual detail is given, or needed. It's very good and worth buying, so stick it in your basket now!
Worth watching once but overrated August 15, 2008

I wanted to watch this from the moment i saw the trailer but i never got to watch it at the cinema and so i bought the Dvd as soon as it was released.I was really set to watch something fantastic and it was a decent film with some good acting and humour and a quirky script, but i felt a bit let down as it didn't live up to the hype, it wasn't amazing,it was just good. I would however still say give it a go though, especially if you liked little miss sunshine, it's definately worth at least one viewing.
