Year of release: 2007
Director: Jason Reitman
Writer: Diablo Cody
Starring: Ellen Page, Michael Cera, Jennifer Garner, Jason Bateman, etc.
General impression:
Down-to-earth, easy, breezy – in a smart and warm way. “Juno” is about many things that may happen in life, presented in such a way that there are no villains and no blames. It’s a realistically positive story that gives the characters freedom to be themselves, make mistakes, and assume the consequences, eventually finding solutions.
Highlights:
It feels genuine, with likable characters, and a sprinkle of color. Witty and fresh.
Downside:
It’s a comedy about common issues of life, therefore not spectacular or artistic.
Would I see it again? – Yeah, but not very soon.
My Rating (1 to 10): 7.5
Recommended: Yes
Suggestion:
If you want a sweet movie that’s not dumb or corny, watch “Juno”.
