Juno Review
Summary: Juno is a Mid-Western highschooler, who decides one day, out of boredom or curiosity, to have sex with her friend Paulie Bleeker, a member of her school's track team. She likes him well enough, but isn't hung up on him. This one time encounter results in Juno's pregnancy. She and her best friend Leah decide to take control of the situation by browsing for prospective adoptive parents in the local Pennysaver newspaper, and Juno settles on seemingly the perfect, affluent couple Mark and Vanessa Loring who is desperate to have a child. Junos sensitive father and stepmother are very supportive of her and help Juno with her decision to give the baby up for adoption. Juno and her father check out Mark and Vanessa Loring to see if they are the right couple. As time moves closer to having the baby, Juno grows more into a woman, yet she is still a teenager with all the same problems and a few more.

This movie was hilarious and lived up to the hype it was getting. I connected with it even more knowing it was set in MN, listening to them talk about MN cities made it even funnier. Ellen Page did a great job playing Juno and Michael Cero always makes me laugh. I gave this movie a 3.5 out of 4, because its really hard to get a 4 for me, I prob wont buy it but will rent it in years to come.
