Juno
When you think of a movie of a pregnant high-school student, some people might be offended in what they assume would be glorifying promiscuity. It does nothing of the sort. It takes a real life situation and puts it into the character of Juno (Ellen Page) who speaks freely and honestly as a high-schooler of today. The movie focuses on Juno's relationship with her parents and a close friend but mostly back and forth between the boyfriend (Michael Cera) and the prospective adoptive parents (Jennifer Garner and Jason Bateman). The directing was very good with the cartoonish aspect and the consistency of the runners. The soundtrack was awesome in that it totally fit the movie. All of the actors were wonderful and this is a true ensemble piece where everyone on cast and crew seemed to come together as one to make a deliciously enjoyable movie.
Two thumbs up snapping together to the beat of the soundtrack.
P.S. Education is the key to teenage pregnancy and ALL issues!
