I can't get it out of my head.

Rating: 9/10 (22 January 2008)

This move was extremely cute! I went in with high expectations, and came out enlightened. Juno, a bright quirky sixteen year old girl becomes pregnant with her best friend's baby, quickly decides against an abortion (thanks to a hint that babies have fingernails) and goes the adoption route. Through the Pennysaver, she finds Vanessa & Mark, a couple who had been struggling to conceive and was now willing to adopt a child. The movie tells the process of pregnancy through Juno's eyes, with all her little sarcastic comments and whatnot, and her issues and problems along the way. I personally loved the "straight out of the art studio" feel of the movie. It didn't feel quite so scripted, but more like it was just real life on the big screen.
My favourite part was the ending, where Bleeker and Juno sing the Moldy Peaches song "Anyone Else But You". Amazingly cute and stunning, she gets up and gives him a kiss.
This movie is so reminiscent of highschool. Everyone went to highschool with a Juno - the "freaky" sarcastic girl that finds the beauty in life.
9/10
