Brilliant!

Rating: 10/10 (22 February 2008)

This is not one of the best films of the year - personally I think it's one of the best films ever made! The basic storyline of the film is that a teenage girl gets pregnant and the whole film is about her choices as a teenage, soon to be, mother. The whole film is realistically acted throughout, due to it's top-notch cast - Ellen Page as Juno (who has been nominated for an Oscar for her role), Michael Cera who plays Paulie - the father-, Jenifer Garner who plays Vanessa and Jason Bateman who is Mark , are the adopters, Allison Janney who plays Juno's step-mother Bren and J.K. Simmons who is Juno's biological father Mac. Now thats pretty much it, the film has been nominated for best picture, best director (Jason Reitman), best actress (Ellen Page) and best screenplay (Diablo Cody) in the 80th Academy Awards. Even though it may sound like a chick-flick or whatever it's not so don't get put-off by the storyline, it's brilliant!
