Product Description: 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 Get to Know Juno's Cast

Customer Reviews
LOVE IT, LOVE IT, LOVE IT.
This is a great movie. I loved it. I actually bought two so I could send one to my daughter. We saw it together the first time at the theatre.

Excellent Film
Juno is a charming film of a girl stuck in a bad situation trying to do the right thing, while keeping her sense of self. The film makes it easy to both like and want to scold the title character, Juno. Overall a very enjoyable watch, and heart warming story.

Juno (Single-Disc Edition)
Juno is a cutting edge type movie. I loved the language, very modern and youthful. The acting was great. Although the topic of teen pregnancy is still quite disturbing, this film handles it with comedy and shows the inner conflict of a young girl pregnant too soon.

Juno - the movie
Juno is the most enjoyable movie we've seen in years. Every character was wonderful and we would recommend this movie to all!

Break from Reality
This movie may require you to suspend your beliefs.
You must believe: that a store clerks is pithy, that a teenager is even pithier, that parents are supportive of a teen pregnancy, that teens at school aren't cruel, that a teenage boy wants a meaningful relationship more than gratuitous sex, that a neurotic, uptight professional woman is good single mother material, that a man slow dancing with a teenager half his age isn't a predator, that people know when to enter and leave relationships, that teenage pregnancy has no long-term negative effects.
If you believe, you will be rewarded with a sweet viewing experience. But a cynic might say it would be appropriate if Juno woke up at the end of the movie.
