1 of 5 people found the following review helpful: All Hype No Greatness For This Movie 9/21/2008 I'm sorry but this movie was just two things for me annoying and idiotic re-make of much better movies before this one. I'm sure most people know the storyline by now you have a young teenage girl Juno who after having sex gets pregnant and now after a while of thinking it over decides to have the baby full term and than give the baby up to a surrogate couple. For me I couldn't seem to care less what happened to Juno or the baby I know it sounds mean but the storyline they used has been done over many times and a lot more better than this trashy movie. The soundtrack also was pretty pathetic except for one or two but all in all the songs they used by this one singer Kimya Dawson made me want to put this dvd in the garbage disposer. To people who are looking for a heart-felt movie similar to this I say try checking out Natalie Portman's movie Where The Heart Is I guarantee you that would be a much better choice than this cornball dvd. Thank You. Was this review helpful?

This is one of those movies that doesn't really fit into a category. It's a quirky dramedy with a dialogue style that's somewhat reminiscent of the Gilmore Girls. I'd be remiss if I didn't start with the music. The opening song was what initially hooked me on the movie. After listening to the soundtrack and re-watching the movie this second time, I was awed by how well the music fits the movie. Nothing is out of place and I can't imagine anything else working in any of the places. The dialogue itself has a musical quality. There is a very unique cadence to the dialogue and especially to Juno's words. It's very hip and referential, and it fits with the tone of the movie perfectly. It's slightly more upbeat when things are less intense, but definitely mellowed out for the more serious moments. In most movies today you know exactly what you're going to get when you start to watch, and I'd wager your expectations are typically lowered going in. You knew what you were getting and the best movies surprise you and exceed your expectations. I really don't know how I got interested in this movie. When it came out I knew I wanted to see it, but I couldn't really remember seeing any of the trailers. All I knew was it looked funny and it was about a teenage girl who gets pregnant. As a result, I went into this movie like Stevie Wonder. While watching for the first time, I didn't know what to expect. With this second viewing I know I laughed a lot harder than the first time. I'd attribute that knowing what to expect and it still surprising me. The first time, I thought the scenes with Jennifer Garner and Jason Bateman didn't really fit; but now I see the "BBC Office" like style of awkwardness that makes those scenes great. I watched the blu-ray of this and it is identical to the 2-disc special edition release. There are six featurettes that aren't included on the regular release and a second disc that contains a digital copy of the film for portable devices (though I haven't checked it out yet). The picture quality is great. This is one of those films that is grainy in the theatres and this is a reproduction of that. The special features are your standard deleted scenes, outtakes, and making-of stuff. Nothing special here. I loved this movie; I can't recall all the new movies I saw last year, but this is the best one I remember. For an ex-stripper the writer, Diablo Cody, did a fantastic job with a script that I think everyone can enjoy. Thank You. Was this review helpful?

The topic of teenage pregnancy is often a difficult subject for a movie, but this one does it with depth, compassion and much humor. The casting is wonderful and Ellen Page is absoultely brilliant playing the title role of "Juno". She's smart, funny, cool/uncool teenager who finds herself pregnant and finds the seeminingly perfect couple to adopt her unborn baby. The movie explores the relationship with Juno and the parents to be, her parents and her "boyfriend along with the relationship of the "parents to be". It's a very touching story with a couple unexpected turns. You'll also find yourself laughing along the way. I can see why this movie got such positive reviews and I would absoultely recommend it Thank You. Was this review helpful?

I like how it started in Autumn around Halloween. I like how she starts a friendly relationship with Jennifer Garner's husband, Mark Loring, because he happens to like the same stuff Juno does. I like her dialogue and comebacks. One thing that was kinda wierd was the music they played throughout the film. (The soundtrack.) If you love comedy, and pregnant teenagers, you'll love JUNO!!! On a personal note: This movie reminds me of some of my friends a few years ago in high school that got pregnant and dropped out...I miss them! One of them actually danced with me 4 years ago at a dance. Thank You. Was this review helpful?

Given all the rediculous hype surrounding this movie, I'd be likely to agree. But, just the same, this movie is important. Why? Because it got a lot of people talking. A lot of people stand against this movie because of it's subject matter; teen pregnancy. While Juno's initial reaction to have an abortion further shocked many people, these were the confused actions of a young woman who, after realizing that she cannot go through with an abortion, goes through the rest of the movie making the best possible decisions from the baby's perspective. A lot of people think this movie promotes teen pregnancy. This is due, in part, by a number of teen girls who've seen and responded to the film. Others feel (wrongly) that it promotes abortion. But the movie makes no clear stance on abortion (much like we, as a whole, have not) and teen girls are always going to say stupid things. They're teens for crying out loud. This film is a snippet of real life. Teens really do get pregnant because a late teen's body is the best suited for the job of procreation. The hormones drive them to it. They (teens) have been doing it sicne the very first humans andit was not until recent (very recent) times that our culture decreed that the teenage years are a part of childhood, and that teen should not be having sex. Yet, at the same time, we live in a culture that places sex into every aspect of life. The highest grossing models are underage girls... Kids have sex. Culturally, we encourage it while at the same time telling them not to. Getting pregnant is a risk, but why is it that we only blame the youths who get pregnant? Because I can assure you that most all of them are having sex. Juno is important because it's an honest LOOK (not praise, not judgement) on an issue that happens, regardless of preceeding morals. What's more, being under forty, I found this is one of the few films that accurately depicted adolesence as I lived it. The characters and the language were familiar to me. What I like about Juno is that it is showing a difficult thing but at the same time the audience can, and will, both critisize and sympathize with the character of Juno, who errs and then decides to do the right thing, despite the obvious difficulties and she does it all with the help of a loving, supportive family. Through the course of the ordeal, Juno learns to appreciate her family and learns what real love is. If you need a message in a movie then why not take that away? Thank You. Was this review helpful?
