Juno
The Movie Man - wrote on 05/13/09
Juno is a delightful film that tackles a pretty tough subject with just the right outcome. Juno is Funny, Sharp, Touching and Fresh. From it's solid direction, Odd but Unique screenplay and Bright and Honest acting make for an outstanding movie. Jason Reitman is becoming a wonderful director with a keen eye for detail, his direction is worthy admiring. Diablo Cody's screenplay is Unique and also a little Odd (in a good way), but good. But the performances are where the main focus should be, the film was cast to perfection. Ellen Page is Incredible as the title character, Her funny and quirky performance is what makes the film so great, this is her star making performance for sure. The supporting cast is outstanding as well especially J.K. Simmons and Jennifer Garner. The Score is wonderful, even better when it's performed by the stars and the Clever opening title sequence is fun. What a treat it was to watch this film.
