When a teenage girl is faced with an unexpected pregnancy, she enlists the aid of her best friend in finding the unborn child a suitable home in this
coming-of-age comedy drama from
Thank You for Smoking director
Jason Reitman.
Juno (
Ellen Page) may seem wise beyond her years, but after sleeping with classmate
Bleeker (
Michael Cera), the pregnant teen quickly realizes how little she really knows about life. Thankfully,
Juno has been blessed with parents (
J.K. Simmons and
Allison Janney) who trust their daughter's judgment, and a best friend named
Leah (
Olivia Thirlby), who's always willing to help out in a pinch. With a little help from
Leah,
Juno soon comes into contact with
Mark (
Jason Bateman) and
Vanessa (
Jennifer Garner) -- an affluent suburban couple who have been unable to conceive a child of their own.
Mark and
Vanessa seem like they would make great parents, and are eager to adopt
Juno's unborn child. Now, as adolescent
Juno is faced with a series of very adult decisions, she will draw on the support of her family and friends in order to discover who she truly is, and discover that one bad choice can have a lifetime of consequences.

Wonderfully Indie
Juno is the perfect movie, it's got a deeply embedded message, it's actors all deliver a stunning performance, and it's so hilarious, you will be quoting lines to your friends two weeks later. It's a message that stays with you, a coming-of-age story, but not over the top like you see most often now. Juno Mcguff is an amazing character, tackling all problems head on with just the right amount of sarcasm and pop culture references. No sequel is needed for a movie such as this.
