Don't take the themes too much it to heart, be entertained..

Rating: 8/10 (18 April 2008)

I'm tired of seeing so many teenage flicks like American pie or scary movie around. It's was refreshing to find a film for this age with some intelligent dialogue. Ellen Page's character reminded me a lot of an old friend from school. Witty, bored and cynical. I really enjoyed Juno, and while clearly the film does deal with pretty serious issues, I wasn't overwhelmed. It's light-hearted approach was enjoyable.
I actually watched the film with my Dad, we both found it to be highly amusing, more amusing though was an older man in front of us who was continually turning around throughout...he couldn't work out why we were laughing.
I think the trick is not to think to hard about the underlying themes, just go to be entertained.
