This is a awesome movie, Ellen Page is a great actor and pulls off her role flawlessly. It might be for everyone but I loved it.

I think the film is actually a fairly mature, thought provoking story about an unwed teen learning to cope with a surprise--and decidedly unwanted--pregnancy. The sound track after awhile, did get a tad annoying. However the script makes up for it with a heart-touching story that will warm the heart of many. I recommend this film to college age people

a movie that knew the crowd that would like it and made it for them

A gem of a "small" film. Great acting and solid scripting. Does not hit a wrong note, and delivers laughs and insights.

Witty, funny dialogue and well acted and more deserving than the low rating some users gave it. Everyone in our showing (a full house) seemed to really enjoy it.

Best movie i've seen in ages. great script and excellent performance from ellen page. i'm surprised by some of the bad comments here. maybe this movie is meant for more literate people who appreciate a great dialogue and a story with heart that isn't cheesy.

While many films crank the idiosyncrasies of the characters out of whack, this film delivers a cast that is surprisingly mundane: every day parents, fairly nerdy boyfriend who likes orange Tic Tacs... it's the way the characters talk and interact that's so funny. True, nothing explodes... but I'd already seen Live Free or Die Hard, so I was cool with that. If you like clever dialogue? You'll love Juno.… Expand

Edges out No Country for Old Men for the best film of the year. The cast is perfect (besides perhaps Jennifer Garner).

I loved this movie, and it seemed as if everyone in the packed theater in which I saw it would agree. (And packed at a 4 pm showing.) It's fun and quirky, and shows how some people are already fully formed as teens, whereas the rest take far longer to grow up.

Fantastic film. So good it may be classified as underhyped.

I'm pro choice. But I think all abortion clinics should require a women to watch this movie before the parents gets an abortion in case this changes thier mind because this movie would change a bad situation into something good. Unless they care about getting fat or going through childbirth which is admittedly awful, messy and painful. However I do not begrudge a person for wanting to avoid the horrendous prospect of a childbirth they don't want. I've been there. It is a wonderful message movie along with being a good comedy since there's some people that can't have children that are desperate (although this movie didn't address that) so if young parents can just go through the pregnancy, this movie's message, just might be the answer.… Expand

An amazing teen story using incredible actors (They actually ACT like REAL TEENS!). Story and Music blending together as if they were on the same page, which hasn't happened since A Clockwork Orange... not that is is anything like ACO... but I think you get my point. If you want to see reality in all it's drama and natural comedy, you will love this film. Everyone can learn from the 2 leads on how to really make the best out of life.… Expand

This would have been an amusing, forgettable film like Little Miss Sunshine if not for the amazing sleight of hand that Reitman performs with the Garner and Bateman characters. The dynamic between the two of them and the title character elevates Juno above other, similar films. The performances are uniformly excellent and the pacing is spot-on. One of the better films of the year.

Good movie with witty dialogue (mostly by Juno). I'm surprised at some people saying how unfunny they thought the movie was; I'm interested in hearing the comic "gold" that must be spilling out their mouths all the time. **Spoiler Alert*** The only problem I had with the movie was when Juno told her parents about her pregnancy. Juno's parents must have taken some sedatives before that scene, because they seemed like the most laid-back parents in the world. They didn't even raise their voices once when they heard the news! Most people I know would agree that their parents wouldn't take teenage pregnancy so lightly. Perhaps the relaxed attitude fit better with the overall tone of the movie, but it seemed very unrealistic to me. ***… Expand

This is the best movie i've seen in a very long time. Anyone who loves movies should see this film!

Juno is a film I've wanted to see since the first trailer. Something about it told me it would be something special. And for me it was. Juno combines witty dialogue with stupendous acting and a great storyline to make a great under the radar comedy/drama.

Geeesh, the number of people that don't have the maturity to enjoy a near perfect film amazes me. This film is a solid 9, but people that didn't receive a solid education score it lower. How Sad for them. While not "perfect", it's easily the best crafted film of 2007. There is no contrived story line... it's just pure story and real acting. Yes, Ellen Page is really playing herself, but get over yourself, the quick witted banter she spews is beyond brilliant. Best in 40 years of movie making. Don't be a sob, go see it, it's happy / sad, and will make you THINK in the weeks, months to come. It's a REAL movie, not a single moment of contrived crap. only...... "If" you are educated...... ' - -… Expand

Easily one of the best movies in 2007. Every aspect of it was wonderfully done.

Pretty much the best movie of the year, besides Once. Hilarious, poignant, adorable... Perhaps even twee, but I love it with all my heart.

This movie describe a reality in the life's of our adolescents

It is nice to see a great movie that tells a story in a funny, moving, and heartwarming way. Excellent acting by all of the stars.

This well-written and well acted film give us a refreshing view of what it is like to be a pregnant, teenage girl. You cannot feel sorry for this character because she won't let you. She's tough, funny, independent and surprisingly resourceful.

The Best Animated Movie I Have Seen In Years.

wow, really a good movie. I really reccommend you all french frog to listen it in english... This movie is all about smart-funny dialogue.

I thought the movie was witty although the teen steretypes were pretty off making teens seem like smart-arse fools even though half of them are not all of them are. I liked it though and would reccomend it. Juno went in a different direction then i thought it would but I still liked it.

At first I wasn't sure...it was clever, but too self-aware. Then, somehow, I was won over, caught up in Juno McGuff's world. I find myself really thinking about the characters and various scenes. I ended up buying the DVD and plan on watching it with various friends and family.

Fantastic, provided you can appreciate the flawed heroine. Charmingly over-the-top lines, memorable characters.....i could give even more cliche compliments if you want. Just see it.

I really enjoyed this film that is as hooking as it is funny the characters are very well picked and well portrayed in the film, excellent

Really really awesome movie. Every character is appealing and realistic in his or her own way. Truly heartwarming. Assuming you aren't a total cynic, you will love it.

Juno is probably the best comedy in the last 3 - 4 years. It's humor is so unlike other mainstream movies, and it is so different. The plot is very similar to some others but the quirky attitude really sets apart from other's. And the fact that this is the second movie Ellen Page has done really says a lot about her abilities and her carrier's potential. Page and Cera's chemistry is so awkward, it really fit the part.… Expand

Great movie! definitely worth seeing. Very deserving of it's best best picture nomination

This movie is totally boss. Go suck It no country for old men. I related to this so much. Just how she handles things and her facial expression are perfect. I feel a kinship between me and Juno.

I'm real different from Juno but my cousin is like her carbon copy. I'm surprised they got her down in a movie so perfectly. I love Juno for that and how unique It is. I'm proud.

I'm happy Juno is representing a group of people other people don't know about. I'm from a social group completely devoted to being unique. It promotes diversity. This movie is an advertisement for being original and unconventional when there's no need to have another thing thats common. This movie is the orgasm to my sex.

Much love to the thing in the oven. Very cool movie. The hippyness is a complete caricature to todays youths jargon. The vernacular in this movie is awesome. Love this movie to death. The language is like Picasso. It unrealistic but brilliant. Come on people, let's not complain about a good thing.

ellen page is extraordinary. No words can describe her snatch or her acting skills. She makes thus movie realistic with her acting, mannerisms, and face acting. An oscar is cumin her way soon. I know it, god told me and my cat told me. She doesn't predict earthquakes she predicts worthy winners.

Hated it for a long a** time but I rewatched thrice. Thanks to a friend. Watched it four times. Liked it the 3rd time. Loved it the fourth. Currently its my 5th.

Pulling off the blanket and putting it on my wet, naked body and laying down in bed watching this movie is my favorite way to spend night.

Definatly not a chick flick. It so much more. Its love and originality. Its beauty in how unique life can be I'm grateful I came in contact with this movie. God thank you.

Finally a comedy with unconventional romantic moments isnt corny. None of it is corny. It stays very cool throughout. I appreciate that. Its different and that's refreshing.

Everytime I watch American beauty I follow up with this because it just goes great together. There both very well and its awesome. Its both realistic in there own way. I think I enjoy Juno more. That's why I watch it second like a finale. Go watch it if you havent its really well made.

I can't agree more with the critcs they are completely right. Finally they are correct.

I'm proud as a person currently holding a vagina that we are represented by a powerful woman. She is confident in herself and is proud of her own uniqueness. She is self-assured and its great to see a female lead like that. I bet if she was a guy more people would be willing to believe in the realism of the film and more people would be accepting. Ridiculous! I love Juno. She is a role model to me. That doesn't mean I'll get pregnant. Smart people get preggers all the time doesn't mean they have no brain. Im inspired by how she bot influenced by the normalcy of the majority of people. I sppluad you Juno.… Expand

My cousin died. I can't find my Juno DVD. I think he took it with him. I told him I liked it more. What a douche.

Jeez o jeez I'm pleased. Saw mall cop. Horrible movie. Didnt laugh once. Watched Juno after it. thank god, he sent me my savior. Best movie I've seem in months. Real unique style. We need more talented strippers, and more skinny ones.

Loved mclovin, in love with junebug. Just great said the old man. The mirror is smart for agreeing.

Cops arrest me. I've stolen the DVD. Went in the bathroom, ripped it out, and took it. I shouldn't becus I should have paid to show my support for Juno. But I'm giving my support by watching and giving it a ten.

I finally got an e-mail to post a comment. I love this movie. Its different from what if seen before especially dialogue wise. Its great, detailed, and it has a lot of style. Its my favorite film of 2007 for sure. I'm proud this became so popular and it was extremely successful. Thskyou creators of Juno and a special thank you to miss Cody.

How is this manipulative? This isnt at all. Is was very free with the viewer. I didnt feel pushed to believe something they wanted me to believe at all. I had the freedom to think and the fredom to personalize things and events from the movie. The script is fresh but a little annoying but I still appreciate a gray deal because its a different voice that was needed in hollywood. And Juno the charaecter I felt was a , overall, good rolemodel because even though she was pregnant she was positive and assured herself that everything was going to be okay while trying to make people around her laugh. She's also proud to be unique which is very admirable. She better than most fruitful yukie.… Expand

Juno caught me offguard. She is really quick, and her wit is extraordinary. Its a real joy to watch. I love little details in movies. Little details in the directing. Little details in the settings. Little details within the characters. Thus movie has all of that but the most small details reside in the screenplay. Really is amazing because everytime you watch the movie you find out something new everytime and that is something pretty much all brilliant movies have. This is the perfect length for a movie like this. It really touched more than I expected. This movie should be on dateline.… Expand

The music had the perfect vibe that accompanied the movie perfectly. The acting made the screenplay completely believable and it was better than good. The dialogue was amazing and truly original. I felt like Juno was a real person by the end of the movie. A good friend with benefits. I'm surprised at how heartfelt the movie was. I was dying to see this film and I was correct about feel g that thus movie would be great. Bought the DVD the day after I watched the movie. It was a good two days in a row.… Expand

Very intelligent. Everything they say has a secret joke. There's always something to find out. The more I find out about diablo Cody the more I think she's genius.

best picture I have seen this picture. Clever, endearing, completely relevant and true to itself. I thought that it was more real, more tender than even Lil Miss Sunshine (itself a fine movie.) Each of the characters was well developed and fully realized. Not one to miss!

Excellent acting by Ellen Page, a comedy filled to the brim with wit, sarcasm, and heart.

I'm not quite sure what some of the low scorers were expecting when they went to see this movie - apparently their noses were too far in the air to get a good look at the screen. Juno is definitely hilarious and filled with some great one-liners that are well-synced to a Gen X audience and younger. Cody's dialogue is quick and creative, though perhaps a bit more than what one would truly expect from a 16-year-old. Still, the whole thing works beautifully. Well worth the price of a ticket.… Expand

Juno is an interesting movie in that it touches upon a sensitive political topic yet comes off not only surprisingly neutral but comic as well. One could think the movie to have

The funniest movie to date, Ellen Page and Michael Cera are a great tandem together as an awkward couple who suddenly have a baby. Great pregnancy humor, and Jason Bateman is a riot whenever he is on screen. Overall one of the best comedic yet dramatic films this year.

Juno is one of the most original films of the year. Juno uses the wit of the actors along with great writing and music to move the story. Unlike other comedies that rely on crude humor to make you laugh.

Juno

Hmmm, I understand if you don't think the movie was the greatest thing since sliced bread, but I'm shocked at all the 1's and 0's... I laughed, I cried, etc. Great movie.

The vast majority of the movie critics complain about the beginning of the movie (which I thought was fine), and many express some reservations about Juno's string of one-liners. Not every kid is Juno, of course, but what she says comes across to me as completely normal and real. The screenwriter isn't trying to say "Wow I'm amazing, look at all the one-liners I can put together." She's saying, here's this character, and she deals with her world by keeping it at an ironic distance. She's not quite grown up enough to actually handle things, so she uses this half-jokey attitude toward it. Totally believable, totally real. I knew several people like this during high school and college ... didn't you? Not to the same extent, of course; nobody is "on" all the time. For the people who thought the movie was dropping all the names of bands and stuff in an attempt to be cool: I thought exactly the opposite. It is through this shared popular culture that Juno connects with the older guy who never grew up ... and this guy is NOT the hero of the movie. He represents the path not chosen, the Seth-Rogen-in-Knocked-Up guy ... the guy who is NOT right for her. He represents immaturity. And their entire conversation about being uber-hipster also represents immaturity. The point of the conversation isn't dropping names for the sake of dropping names! Those of you who think that's what's going on have completely missed the point of that whole scene. The parents are the most realistic parents I've seen in a teen movie since I don't know when. As a parent of a to-be-teenager-all-too-soon, I appreciated that a lot. The mom told Juno she had no clue what she was getting into with the married guy, and she was right. Unlike most teenage movies, this one reflects reality: teenagers don't quite know what's going on in the world nearly as well as their parents do. Whether a movie is "funny" or not is a matter of taste. I loved Blazing Saddles, some people can't stand it, whatever, you're not going to get anywhere arguing about that sort of thing.… Expand

Very funny PG-13 movie and Ellen Page plays the greatest role on the movie. Also, the soundtrack is amazing and all of the jokes on the movie are hilarious.

I recently bought a triple pack containing Juno, Little Miss Sunshine and Waitress. These are all 3 fine films that effortlessly portray strong female characters at multiple ages and classes while also bringing so much more to the table. Although it is not my favourite of the bunch (that would be Waitress) Juno exemplifies a film that flies high on its own adorableness but still shows that it is remarkably self aware, intelligent and funny as hell.
Juno tells the story of (oddly enough) Juno Macguff (Ellen Page who at the age of 16 gets pregnant by her boyfriend Paulie Bleeker (Michael Cera) and decides to give it up for adoption to a middle class couple (Jennifer Garner & Jason Bateman) with the help of her parents (Allison Janney & J.K Simmons).
Page manages to thrive on the incredibly solid script bringing to life the character who is shown to be incredibly smart, independent and authentic. If anything the other cast member who does as good a job is Jennifer Garner who portrays Vanessa so brilliantly that this highly strung, obsessive and quite frankly domineering becomes funny and enchanting. Batemans Mark also brings a commanding performance as a man who just hasn't grown up, with him in some ways being more immature than Juno despite the fact he is 20 years older.
The rest of the cast bring some great comedy to the mix with Simmons and Janney both bringing their great comic timing while also providing a foil for Juno as she struggles with her pregnancy. The scenes between Janney and Page are especially good with displays of such affection handled so delicately and subtly. The film works from a fantastic script and is all brought together by director Jason Reitman who conveys so much through what isn't shown as well as his extremely honest direction of the actors, especially towards the end. Juno does not disappoint at all, in fact its nine months I'd happily watch again and again.… Expand

Ellen Page in her best acting so far. This movie is brilliant from the first minute on. It is not so funny I expected ... it comes more like a dramedy though this is what makes this film even better! Brilliant acting and plot.

Ellen Page shines as Juno MacGuff! She delivers a bright and shiny performance. I don't know if many audience members are aware of this, but Diablo Cody, who wrote the screenplay for this film was inspired by her life when she was 16 and pregnant in which it shows exactly what can happen during pregnancy and how it can guiltily affect your boyfriend that got you pregnant from sexual intercourse. Juno MacGuff acts like she doesn't care if she's pregnant, but she was smart about it and she does act like she is facing the challenges of being pregnant and she still does care about her boyfriend, Paul Bleeker (Michael Cera). Paul Bleeker still cared about her also. He felt guilty about getting her pregnant, but they still love each other and Page and Cera play cool characters. But what's great is the coming-of-age-type of love story between the two where they have great and intelligent chemistry with each other. And where the film's soul comes from is from the strong character development between the two from start to finish and where she faces a lot of hard decisions about being pregnant around her family and friends and between giving it up for adoption or the other. And strangely enough, it was romantically funny between the two. It's directed like a sitcom, but Jason Reitman makes a wonderful image out of it; especially the hilarious and moving performances of Michael Cera and Ellen Page and the impressive dialogue. Juno MacGuff (Ellen Page) is obnoxious as hell, but Ellen Page was great at her emotions and her obnoxious, yet very smart and intelligently written script. And hey, thanks to Diablo Cody's writing that was inspired by her 16 and pregnant life, it was well done with Juno MacGuff's smartitude, because her smartitude is what made her smart about her pregnancy. Diablo Cody's writing is also what made the script intelligently clever, smart, and not funny but beyond that: Hilarious! To give the audience an experience of being pregnant during high school, it gets the job done with impressive writing from Diablo Cody that made it so smart and intelligent. The love story between Juno and Paul was well-inspired. Especially due to the fact they played great characters. If you hate this wonderful movie, I would feel bad for you because where is your soul? Let me remind you haters this is a very touching movie that gives you clues of what being 16 and pregnant is like since it shows exactly what can happen when a some is pregnant - even when she gave birth and the guilt her boyfriend faced. Besides, wasn't it emotionally intense when she gave birth? Because this film shows how pregnancy can be in every way effective. Besides, It is romantically funny between Juno and Paul, so don't underestimate their character development and chemistry either, because hating this movie would be just soulless. Besides, like I said, she is obnoxious as hell, but she is cool like that, she's bright, sweet, charmingly and cleverly funny, smart, and intelligent. You would be an idiot to underestimate Juno MacGuff's awesome personality. Also, DO NOT underestimate Diablo Cody's superb writing and/or the romantic development between Juno and Paul either! Even if you hate the film considering Juno to be annoying, you are still an idiot, because she is very cool like Ellen Page. One of the coolest things about her is hamburger phone: that was clever as hell! I honestly think Juno was flawed, but thanks to Jason Reitman and Diablo Cody, writing and acting inspired from life of someone (yes, Diablo Cody) who was pregnant at age 16 gives it a coherent soul to captives your heart into a wonderfully explanatory experience of teenage pregnancy - especially since it shows how teenage pregnancy can be both personally and emotionally effective - even on your friends and family - well done by it's sweet and charming qualities - and Ellen Page, who helped made it sweet and charming due to her character and performance. Thank her and the rest of the cast also! And you know what, how can you hate this? You would be a disgrace to hate it. This movie has soul and it would be the perfect movie to watch in Health class in High School to give students clues of teenage pregnancy. Hating this movie, would be soulless. Shame on ANYONE who hates Juno! And yes, I mean you also! You haters would just make me sick! Although you haters may find Juno annoying: She is actually very sweet and clever! DON'T UNDERESTIMATE HER and/or Ellen Page. Especially Diablo Cody's writing. That would just make you haters inconsiderate with no soul. And haters, have you seen the show 16 and Pregnant on MTV? If so, that TV show ACTUALLY shows what I mentioned about teen pregnancy before and depicts it between Juno & Paul. I would also like to point out again that the screenplay of this film was inspired by Diablo Cody's life as a 16 year-old pregnant girl so think twice before you hate.… Expand

The dialogue rattles off so sharply and originally, you can't help but be entranced by Juno's wit. It also has an emotional core, and some genuine heartwarming moments. Reitman, like Alexander Payne, is a master of the human comedy.
