The Movie (Comedy) 'Juno' with Jennifer Garner




The movie Juno is a comedy tackling serious issues such as teenage pregnancy and adoption. Jennifer Garner (Vanessa) is in the movie but not the main character and (Mark) Jason Bateman plays her husband (whom I find hilarious) who are the adoptive parents to be, of Juno's baby played by Ellen Page - who's relatively new yet looks so familiar. I know that was a run-on sentence - sorry.lol

I love that this topic is shown in a light way, yet from what I've seen there is the element of realness in how difficult this whole situation can be. It may be important to drag your teenagers to see this for a few laugh and lessons as well. Have some great dialogue as a family after - how 'bout that?!

Sounds like the perfect way indeed to get the message out -- not too preachy, not too airy.

Exactly - I wish I had the time to go see it.

i was under the impression that Juno was directed by the same guy who directed Knocked Up because it's about an unexpected pregnancy, plus Michael Cera stars as Juno's boyfriend (he was one of the goofy kids from Superbad, a close relative of Knocked Up), but it turns out this is not the case
