Juno [MOVIE] - EvBoard

Princess Mary · 01-16-2008, 11:01 PM

Who has seen it and who is going to see it? It has just started screening here at my cinema so I will be seeing it hopefully sometime soon.

It is about a 16 yr old girl who gets pregnant, and from the review in the paper today, she goes to have an abortion then is told by some picketer person her kid has fingernails or some crap and so she decides to keep it, and give it up for adoption.
I think Jennifer Garner is in this movie and she plays the adoptive mum, or the one who wants to adopt it.
I get the sense that she and her hubby in the movie are not as good as they seem to be, like maybe they are axe murderers or something?

Anyway the movie got 5 stars which pretty much says you should see it, so I just might do that. Apparently Ellen Page is quite the one to look out for.

I recently saw this movie and I think it's amazing!

I loved it. I think it had a the qualities to be deemed a must buy for all independent film lovers! And even if you're not, buy it anyways.

The story is told to be more humorous, but in a way, through it's humor, it conveys a more simplistic human emotion that we can all relate to and in a way, it is a lot more touching when we can see a young girl overcome her problems by means of finding the more humorous things in life. Juno is quite the character, she packs in a punch for a 16 year old and many people will find her character very lovable.

Aside from Ellen Page, there is also Micheal Cera (Arrested Development and Superbad) who plays Paul, the one who gets Juno pregnant. Micheal Cera was perfect for the role! He plays the kid who pretty much didn't know what he got himself into as being all dorky on one side and maintaining an athletic reputation on the other. I absolutely loved him in here, he had this unconventional cuteness to him that only would attract Juno. He was shy, quiet and soft spoken, whereas Juno was the rambunctious, rebelling, loud girl that was meant to be his other half.

All in all, I can't say much more about it without giving everything away. It's a nicely structured film setting from spring of the first year when Juno first discovers she is pregnant and into the next year when she delievers the baby. Classic rock is EVERYTHING in this movie. They made some great references!

This is a must see! You will not regret watching this movie.

George Michael is in the TV show?

myimmortalenemy · 01-20-2008, 04:56 PM

Ah yes, Jason Bateman is also in this movie...he played George Michael's dad in Arrested Development. And Kyle hun, unless you're confused, George Michael is the name of the character Michael Cera played in Arrested Development not the singer.

I laughed aloud many times which is always good when you're depressed.
