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.Running Time: 92 minutesFormat: DVD MOVIE Genre: COMEDY/COMING OF AGE Rating: PG-13 UPC: 024543515944 Manufacturer No: 2251594 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

Rating: - JunoWhat is a teenager to do when she finds herself pregnant and unmarried? Ellen Page solves this problem in a masterful way in this well acted comedy. Great supporting cast. Rating:  - Has issuesTends to glamorize teen pregnancy and make it seem "fun" and easy to get rid of. Rating: - This is fresher than orange tic-tacs!!!!!!!Ellen Page does a stand up stand out job as Juno. Man I love this type of humour it kind of reminds me of Ellen Muth in the Dead Like Me series. Its not fall out of your seat slapstick comedy, its way more tounge in cheek but I tend to like that style of comedy. Its is well written and the dialouge is fantastic. Great movie, great cast, watch this movie. Rating: - GOOD MOVIEJUNO I always seem to catch movies after they are done being super popular -- but this movie always will be popular, as it is well done and very good. Loved the acting. Ellen Page was super; she is cute, and her character was funny, quirky, and different. She knew she was different and it didn't bother her. The acting of Allison Janney and J. K. Simmons as Juno's parents was superb. They were also funny, supportive, and when told Juno is pregnant, they were really ... Read More |
