Cute movie but not outstanding

Rating: 5/10 (16 April 2008)

This movie had its moments but for the most part I wasn't really wowed by it. The best part was the funny dialog by the main character, but it just didn't seem very realistic. If a 16 year old girl suddenly found herself pregnant, I'm pretty sure she'd be pretty upset about it instead of just being like, "Oh well, I guess I'm pregnant now." Perhaps this is Juno's personality, but I'd think she'd be more upset about it, like she was later in the movie. Her parents didn't seem to be terribly upset over this turn of events, either, which kind of gave the movie an unreal feel.
But it is passive entertainment, and I guess I'd probably need to see it again to have a better appreciation of it, but it's one of those movies that I don't care if I ever see again. One last thing, I really didn't care for the musical soundtrack, either. I'm sure this movie appeals to a younger audience, or at least younger than me.
