DVD Reviews of Juno (Single-Disc Edition)
DVD Review: 3.5 stars out of 4
Summary: 4 Stars
The Bottom Line:
A thoroughly delightful comedy that's smart without being too clever (as its detractors often maintain), very funny, and warm, Juno may not have deserved a Best Picture nomination but it certainly deserves a place in any movie fan's collection.
DVD Review: A rare gem
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a rare kind of movie where almost every character is like a real person and not like a pre-baked stereotype. When I watch most movies, the motives of the characters are painfully predictable because they follow certain prescribed guidelines. Juno, much like Clerks, is the opposite. You know more or less what the characters are like but you don't really know what they'll do until they do it. There are not nearly enough movies like this. Highly recommended!DVD Review: Brilliant movie; it's not what you may fear
Summary: 5 Stars
I initially avoided Juno because I thought it would somehow romanticize teenage pregnancy and thus fail to discuss the impact on the child. I could not have been more wrong.
Juno is sincere, touching, occassionally sad, frequently hilarious. The two teens involved are good kids, Juno's parents are good people and no one falls in to an anticipated stereotype. The characters are well written and splendidly acted.
And should you wonder, abortion is considered, and ultimately rejected. Juno's solution, finding a childless couple looking to adopt, would probably not work in the real-world(life is rarely so convenient), but works well on film.
No matter where you fall on the issues of teenage pregnancy, abortion, etc., I still recommend this movie without reservation. It's about two decent kids who made a huge life mistake and now have to accept the consequences, which they do while avoiding sentimentality, political or religious bias, and so forth. Ellen Page is terrific as the smart, sarcastic and overwhelmed by pregnancy Juno.
Plus the soundtrack is great!
DVD Review: Excrutiating....
Summary: 2 Stars
Dear heavens, this movie just tried a little too hard to be indie, cutesy and edgy. Those things should happen naturally, not someone sitting down at a screen and saying hmmm, let me write something indie and cutesy. Utterly unbelievable look at teenage pregnancy, this movie still hurts my brain whenever I think about it. I give it two stars because the ending was oddly touching if predictable, and I love the song "Superstar" and have since downloaded the very cool Sonic Youth version featured in the film. DVD Review: Funny,Funny,Funny!!
Summary: 5 Stars
You have to get this movie if you enjoy what I call stupid humor. Had me rolling with laughter the whole first part of it. Good movie!!
Description of Juno (Single-Disc Edition)
Juno MacGuff (Ellen Page) is a cool, confident teenager who takes a nine-month detour into adulthood when she's faced with an unplanned pregnancy-and sets out to find the perfect parents for her baby. With the help of her charmingly unassuming boyfriend (Michael Cera), supportive dad (J.K Simmons) and no-nonsense stepmom (Allison Janney), Juno sets her sights on an affluent couple (Jennifer Garner and Jason Bateman) longing to adopt their first child.Somewhere between the sharp satire of Election and the rich human comedy of You Can Count On Me lies Juno, a sardonic but ultimately compassionate story of a pregnant teenage girl who wants to give her baby up for adoption. Social misfit Juno (Ellen Page, Hard Candy, X-Men: The Last Stand) protects herself with a caustic wit, but when she gets pregnant by her friend Paulie (Michael Cera, Superbad), Juno finds herself unwilling to terminate the pregnancy. When she chooses a couple who place a classified ad looking to adopt, Juno gets drawn further into their lives than she anticipated. But Juno is much more than its plot; the stylized dialogue (by screenwriter Diablo Cody) seems forced at first, but soon creates a richly textured world, greatly aided by superb performances by Page, Cera, Jennifer Garner and Jason Bateman as the prospective parents, and J.K. Simmons (Spider-Man) and Allison Janney as Juno's father and stepmother. Director Jason Reitman (Thank You For Smoking) deftly keeps the movie from slipping into easy, shallow sarcasm or foundering in sentimentality. The result is smarter and funnier than you might expect from the subject matter, and warmer and more touching than you might expect from the cocky attitude. Page's performance is deceptively simple; she never asks the audience to love her, yet she effortlessly carries a movie in which she's in almost every scene. That's star power. --Bret Fetzer
