The brightest, funniest comedy of the year

Rating: 9/10 (20 February 2008)

What an excellent movie. As well as Little Miss Sunshine in 2006, Juno is the big independent hit of '07, its funny but it also has its dramatic moments, its also full of irony. With a fresh, original and interesting story about a 16 y.o teen who gets pregnant and from that point, she begins to think what to do with the baby she is expecting. The movie has a very good rhythm that makes it enjoyable. The cast is very good, Ellen Page with a terrific performance as Juno, Jason Bateman and Jennifer Gardner are also very good as the couple that are going to adopt Juno's baby and J.K Simmons with a great supporting role as Juno's father. Director Jason Reitman accomplished a excellent work, he gives us a very natural point of view of a pregnant teenager without being corny. People definitely will loved the soundtrack. Every song sets a mood to each scene to the perfection. This is for sure one of the best movies of the year, a very strong candidate for the upcoming Academy Awards.
