Juno is a comedy about a 16 year old girl called Juno (played by Ellen Page) who falls pregnant to the nerdy boy next door Paulie Bleeker (played by Michael Cera). Juno is a really different teenager and is a bit of a sarcastic loser and Paulie is a kind of geeky runner loser in school.
To make a long story short Juno cannot bring herself to get rid of her baby by abortion, so instead she decides to adopt her child out to a couple who cannot have a baby themselves. She finds the couple in the newspaper and then the story begins.
This is a really funny film with a story line with a bit of a difference. The Juno character is a really funny and you cant help but fall for her and her friends charasmatic charms teenage and attitude. Its a great heart warming film with an important message about teen pregnancy in it.
I recommend ...

Advantages: A fun film about teenage pregnancy- how often do those come around Disadvantages: You can't actually be friends with the characters
My (now) husband and I are not big celebrators of Valentine's Day. Don't think the man realises how lucky he is that I don't demand romantic overtures simply because 14th February shows up every year. Anyway, to avoid Valentine's Day 2008 we decided to take a trip to the cinema. In order to be the teensiest bit romantic my husband told me we could see whatever I wanted. So I chose "Juno" which I'd been hearing rave reviews about from my friends back in North America. The conversation went something like this:
Husband: Chosen a film?
Me: Yes, Juno.
Husband: What's it about?
Me: A pregnant teenager.
Husband: Oh. You sure that's what you want to see?
