humorous and light take on a pretty serious issue

Rating: 9/10 (15 January 2008)

Ellen page has portrayed the role of Juno really well. Michael Cera continues from where he left off in SuperBad. The whole screenplay and everyone's roles just fit in perfectly. This movie shows kids the consequences they have to face when they get pregnant young and that abortion is not the only way out. Juno's decision to give the baby to Jennifer garner even after knowing she is getting a divorce is pretty touching and shows the maturity of Juno. Hilarious one liners break the seriousness but not to a point where you forget the whole backbone of the movie. The supporting cast does a great role as well .Michael Cera's character has done a great job too of owning up to what he did but doing so in a humorous way. Great job of portraying a serious issue with a sense of humor.
