Juno Audience Reviews

Voxitype Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.
Bea Swanson This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.
Sameer Callahan It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.
Darin One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.
harishkendrekar A salient, yet echoing tale. Teens superficially pretend to be naïve, (isn't that what they're supposed to be) they aren't.
Pjtaylor-96-138044 While 'Juno (2007)' sometimes tries a little too hard to be 'quirky', this is an enjoyable and unique comedy that's never conventional or predictable. There's been quite a bit of backlash against it since its initial release, but I think it handles its subject matter with maturity in general. This push-back against its presentation is, to me, undeserved as it's the outer-layer of the flick that allows it to stand-out but it's the inner-layer that contains all of its heart. It doesn't preach and, as such, is an entertaining experience. Its ultimately an experience essentially enhanced by its 'quirkiness', too, and is a general joy to watch. 7/10
Raven-1969 When Juno, a single and pregnant teenager, announces that she is "losing faith in humanity," her long-suffering father asks if she can narrow it down a little. This scene, as serious and poignant as it is funny and charming, provides a glimpse of the tone and tenor of the film throughout. Everyone, even a convenience store clerk, has something snarky to say. Tense situations are disarmed by humor and sympathy.Juno is obviously not ready to be a mother, yet she handles her situation with inherent panache and a curious blend of independence, optimism, sarcasm and diligence. In searching for a well-off and decent couple who will provide a good home for her baby, Juno displays more maturity than most adults. The childish antics of her elders and the serious nature of her situation cause Juno to do some serious soul searching along with attempting to discover someone who loves her for who she really is.Ten years after the release of Juno and it is still original, cute and exceedingly snarky. The untraditional plot and dialogue are refreshing. Ellen Page (Juno) carries not only a baby, but the film as well. She is a natural for such a role and perfectly cast. Michael Cera, Jennifer Garner, Jason Bateman, Allison Janney and J.K. Simmons are wonderful in their supporting roles. I wonder how much their future success depended on their roles here? Depth and nuance (beyond being snarky), however, are lacking. There should be plain English subtitles for the language of other generations, young and old (ha, ha)! Maybe the wait is another ten years for such an app.
PetarDuric Juno is sixteen year old and after she discovered she is pregnant things go in a lot ways. Movie is very powerful and will give a new view on many things and how teenagers may be able to process things. Paulie is Juno's best friend he shows us a great insight into a mind of teenager being aware of his actions but in the same time loving towards Juno. After changing her mind and deciding not to abort, Juno decides to give baby to a family that really wants it without knowing how things are going to be tough. Being so young it may seem weird and getting too many attention that is unwanted Juno starts to get in touch with Mark, a man who will adopt child, finding herself and him with many similarities in tastes. That led to emotional change inside him but also in her without realizing how inappropriate their friendship has become. Mark deciding to leave Vanessa shook her up but with good will of Juno she decided to leave child to Vanessa anyway. Juno realized alongside with Paulie that they love each other and that their life will be happy together. This is very emotional movie with some great dramatic moments that were filled with sadness but on the other hand it has a comedy in many scenes considering recklessness of Juno and her father also. Movie is amazingly written but directing of the movie was fine and some characters got too many screening time but had an ability to contribute to story greatly. JK Simmons and Ellen Page were incredible in the movie but sadly JK didn't got many attention but every scene that he is in was great. 3.5/4
