    Juno

    Been wanting to check this for awhile, finally watched it the other night.

    Movie was overall enjoyable as a drama, had some edgy themes and dialog, and some humor as well.

    Ellen Page was solid in the lead role, will check out future stuff with her in it. Character was different and easy to link.

    JK Simmons had a small role as Juno's dad. Like the guy but can't ever get over the homo-erotic scenes he did in OZ.

    Other good casting, Jason Batement, Jennifer Garner, Michael Cera were all good.

    Read some comments about this movie having a pro-life or anti-abortion theme but I saw nothing to support that.

    Worth a check if you're looking for something different outside of the horror/action or normal comedy genre.

    The movie tries way to hard to be "hip" with its ridiculous dialogue.

    A few funny moments, but only a decent at best kind of flick.

    I gotta agree with Cata here. It worked for one watch. Not really a big fan of Ellen Page either, her acting doesn't feel natural at all, it feels like she tries too hard.

    As for the two preggo-flicks that came around the same time, this and Knocked Up (very different movies, but people often mention the two, so I will too). Knocked Up was so much better.

    this movie was fucking horrible. i hated it. the dialogue was unbelievable. the cast was well built but like c. said it tried tooo hard to be hip way to hard.

    and ellen page i think after watching this cannot act at all.

    watching this film it was like watching

    Never even heard of Juno but saw the trailer on a DVD I was watching.

    Trailer was good and the film lived up.

    I love this movie. I thought it was funny as hell. I thought the dialogue was also great. I know lots of people who talk and act that way.

    I enjoyed the dialogue as well in this. It definitely had it's own lingo but I have no idea if the intent was to be hip or not and it really doesn't impact me as I watch the flick.

    Hard to enjoy a movie where the writer tried to fit in as many pop-culture and obscure culture references as she could in each line of dialogue, since it makes it seem forced rather than natural dialogue people would have. Not to mention what little relevance it had to what was actually going on.

    It was good for a watch.

    I credit Ellen Page for seemingly tackling different roles. Only time will tell if she keeps doing that or relegates herself to the new 'it' girl picking movies that will assure bankability for the bosses out there.
