Heartwarming and cute, a great watch!

Rating: 9/10 (31 January 2008)

After a lot of disappointment in recent releases to the theater, I was pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed Juno. The characters are quirky, funny, and draw you into their lives. I personally found a lot in common with Juno while I was growing up, and I do not envy the choices she had to make during the movie. I've always been told I'm a bit 'strange' and 'unique', so quirky angst teenager rings right at home with me.
I didn't know what to expect when I went to see the film; I had heard a lot of hype and talk about it, and was happy when it was released in a nearby theater. It was definitely worth the wait and the money to see, I wasn't disappointed. Page did an excellent job with the lead role, and her emotions came through so strongly. The storyline filled me with closure and a heartwarming feeling at the end, something that hardly seems to happen in my opinion.
Excellent writing, outstanding acting, definitely has a place in my heart.
