Editorial Review: 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.System Requirements:Running Time: 92 minutesFormat: DVD MOVIE Genre: COMEDY/COMING OF AGE Rating: PG-13 UPC: 024543506874 Manufacturer No: 2250687
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.

Rating: - Wonderful movie
Just when you think there won't be any new, fresh movies, one will appear!!! Juno is one of these. It is not a sequel or a remake. It is a delightful, warm, poignant movie - very real.
Rating: - Laughter and tears.
This quirky teen focused comedy/drama has a plethora of witty dialogue and diverse personalities. Very well written story about a young girl trying to do what's best for her and her unborn infant when her spontaneous behavior leads to an unwanted pregnancy. A heartwarming coming-of-age tale that adults will also enjoy.

Rating: - About as perfect a movie as you're likely to see!
This is such a wonderful, joyous, uplifting movie! Normally one wouldn't say that about a film centering around teen pregnancy, a failed marriage and broken hearts, but in his case? Yeah!
"Juno" for those of you who have been living in caves, is a film about a young girl who, after a night's indiscretion with her best friend, becomes pregnant. Initially planning to get an abortion, she changes her mind and decides to put the baby up for adoption. It goes from there.

Rating: - pretty good
this was a pretty good film. it was enjoyable. it tried to deal with a difficult topic-teenage sexuality and pregnancy. it was not heavy handed. it was good to see someone portray the reality of teens having unprotected sex and good to see Juno's friends and parents support this sweet and innocent girl. the teens were not condemned for their sexuality. it doesn't deal with everything. there is often a huge down-side to teenage sex and pregnancy and many kids do choose abortion with its attendant ...
