Review of Juno (2007) by Josh B — 07 Dec 2012
''You should've gone to China, you know, 'cause I hear they give away babies like free iPods. You know, they pretty much just put them in those t-shirt guns and shoot them out at sporting events.''.
Faced with an unplanned pregnancy, an offbeat young woman makes an unusual decision regarding her unborn child.
Ellen Page: Juno MacGuff.
Michael Cera: Paulie Bleeker.
Jennifer Garner: Vanessa Loring.
Juno is a warm heartful story which is propelled forward with it's catchy tunes and loving disposition revolving round a a very young girl who falls pregnant.
Ellen Page as Juno is a girl, we see evolve and learn from her mistakes, but the important things she doesn't give up in fact she learns from them and this to me makes her stronger and in my eyes strong.
Jason Bateman, Jennifer Garner, J.K Simmons all give good supporting role performances to young marvel Ellen Page who manages to shine brightly most of all, after all this is her film.
It's a very light and breezy film, Juno seems to blow by like the wind from enjoyment and proves watching a young girl deal with her problems her way can be compelling and can be fun as well as serious at the same time.
Truly, a feel good film that shines and was deserving of it's Oscar it received.
