Juno is byfar the most well-written film of the year, regardless of genre, and it stars are some of TVs most cherished actors (well, if you liked Arrested Development, then you will want to make sweet, sweet love to this movie).
For those of you who don't know, Juno is simply a story of teenage pregnancy and growing up, with a few bumps along the way (sorry I had to steal the tagline).
Now, nothing seems to be funny about this plot, but the actors play the script perfectly, which makes for an hour and a half of Hollywood perfection. Once again Mike Cera (the skinny one from Superbad) plays a dorky kid (Paulie Bleeker) who strives to play it cool, who ends up becoming a baby daddy to Ellen Page's Juno. I'm not going to go into too much detail, but all you need to know is that Jason Bateman kills in this movie.
'07 answered the call for the return of rediculously funny teen comedies, and Juno is just another to add to the list.
And to think it all started with a chair....
