Jason Reitman has a novel way of presenting things (reminiscent a lot of "Thank You For Smoking")Juno is a breath of fresh air ...... n' simply irresistible
Ellen Page plays Juno , a sixteen year old , who in a fit of sexual arousal , gets into unwanted pregnancy .. !!
The umpteen preg tests undergone by Juno , makes her take this development as casually as the daily sunrise :) :)
Her boyfriend who is in the thick of things , is heart broken when Juno decides to abort ... and then out of the blue , the conscience makes her think otherwise.
Her family is damn supportive , and her decision to raise the new born vicariously through a sweet couple in need of a child , is superbly handled.
The film is all about the relationships tango between Juno , her boyfriend , her parents , her class-fellows and last but not the least the adopting couple!
The dialogue writer has done a commendable job in putting up a witty show , Ellen Page blurring out words at a rate of knots. The hilarity is just extra-ordinary leaving the cine goer into splits.
Special Mention : The background score with super acoustic guitar riffs , is just terrific and very pleasing to the ears ...
Felt bad that Ellen missed out on the Oscar yesterday.......
Watch it for a simple , innocent , serious , outrageous , whacko ride!!
Rating : 4.5/5.0
