Serious social statement?

Rating: 7/10 (9 August 2009)

Reading through some of the reviews here, I wonder if we watched the same movie. Some of you seemed to think it was trying to convey a serious social statement on teenage pregnancy - it wasn't! It was a gentle comedy with some great performances from all the cast, in particular J K Simmons, Allison Janney, but especially Michael Cera as Bleek.
So Juno wasn't a typical teenager - what is a *typical* teenager? I was into 40's and 50's music when I was in my teens, so for a girl to be into the 70's scene and classic horror films is not so unusual.
If you're reading the reviews to this film before watching it, don't be put off by all the negativity here - take it for what it is, a gentle, heart-warming comedy with some great performances.
