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.

Summary: Napolean Dynamite it's not
Comment: With the opening sequence, I thought I was in for a very creative film akin to "Napolean Dynamite, " but I was so wrong. Though the film was not long, I felt it drag and assumed I had missed something critical perhaps while putting my hand into the popcorn or jordan almonds which I'd prepared in advance. Every aspect of the script seemed to be contrived and the language grew thin with Juno's quips becoming boring after awhile. The tension never actually climaxed and I was more entertained by the music than the story. In a nutshell, this movie is far from a classic and weak in the entertainment. I prefer my films to be more full bodied than light unless the characters or story can carry them to fruition as entertainment.

Summary: never listen
Comment: to reviews from others. A couple people told me about what a 'smart' movie this was. It was a great disappointment after all the mimicking of critics. I laughed once and I cringed several times due to the dialogue which was silly over the top computer slang which I'm sure is what will soon come to pass.(lol whatever that stands for.)Every character was the same and it was amateurish overall.The plot was decent but it's not like it took a great amount of originality since she admitted she cribbed it from ghost world. It's not like this woman actually went to the trouble to study films. It's a hole in one first shot from an amateur. Awful.

Summary: Juno
Comment: This movie was hilarious, I could not stop laughing even after watching it the third time. I highly recommend to those that are sarcastic because the main character is just so funny and great.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Trying too hard.
Comment: Have you ever known someone who put a tremendous amount of effort into being cool? They played guitar 'cause it was cool, were obsessed with classic rock even though they were born after Boy George was popular 'cause that's cool, say quippy little remarks and not care about anything because they are so cool, can rattle off obscure horror film directors, hang in living room furniture on the front lawn, have wacky bedroom decor and accessories like a food-shaped utilities cause they are so cool? If those people bug you, then like me, you will not enjoy this film. I get that sixteen-year-olds thought this film was really awesome. I think it is kind of pathetic that people who have gone to their ten-year high school reunions thought this was a really good film. It tried so hard to be cool it actually hurt to watch. This movie simply will not stand the test of time.

Summary: "He is the cheese to my macaroni..."
Comment: Juno starring Ellen Page is delightfully hilarious but also frankly delicate especially the last half hour. Page is a talented actress, Juno came across immature at first but the character truly grows up before the viewers eyes. Michael Cera and Jennifer Garner really surprised me here, they hold their own around Page's dry wit. The dialogue is something else, you gotta hear it to believe it! And by the way a film cannot make you pregnant, so let's just set that myth straight. I highly recommend this too cool for its own good flick, enjoy!
