Definately this year's Little Miss Sunshine.

Everyone was great. Ellen Page will probably (hopefully) be nominated for an Oscar.

But the one performance that really surprised me the most was Jennifer Garner. She conveyed such quite sadness. Who knew she had it in her?

but I still liked it, there was some funny stuff in it

I thought Page, Allison Janney, Michael Cera, and J.K. Simmons stood out

Good (first time) script, Diablo Cody nailed the difficult abiility of giving each individual character a distinct voice

HOLLA THEN

The dialogue they quoted sounded very *blinking in neon lights* QUIRKY, and the article about Diablo Cody made her seem like one of those people that all we're gonna hear about is her quirky story.

Too indie, too quirky, too friendly. I dunno, I don't trust it. I love Michael Cera, Jason Bateman and Rainn Wilson, so I'll probably end up seeing it - but I'm not happy about it.

Esteemed author of the celebrated, double-platinum post: "Drake - Wu-Tang Forever".

It's a pretty funny movie, but yeah, the above rings true. Kinda forced dialogue at times, but it was definitely an entertaining flick.

There was one scene where I was cringing for like 5 full minutes... you who've seen it probably know what I'm talking about.

This is his second film and I like the direction he's headed in. I guess when you're pops has already "made it" you can do films without overtly pandering. I liked this one a lot. It was endearing without getting sentimental. Ellen Page was awesome. I couldn't stand her in Hard Candy, but I loved her in this. I, surprisingly, really liked Jennifer Garner in this. I actually connected with her character. Overall, I think it was a good effort on everyone's part.

She played the boring suburban housewife part perfect, then when it came time to humanize her, that was pretty striking too.

I still think she's funny looking, but good performance.

Looks really cool.

not sure when it goes wide.

"You (Fisher) could get fired, Les Snead could get fired, Kevin Demoff could get fired, but I will always be Eric Dickerson.” (c) The God

the main six actors are all excellent, especially jk simmons who comes in and slays his scenes. page is also very good and the movie wouldn't work without her to carry it.

the dialogue can be distractingly quirky and shows the hand of the screenwriter too often but i found most of the dialogue funny and, when necessary, appropriately emotional. i do already fear all the stories about diablo cody (she was a stripper! she wrote the screenplay at a target!) but i did like a lot of the writing.

Ellen Page and Michael Cera are bringing nerd chic to an alltime high in Hollywood. and they are terrific advocates.

Bateman, Garner, Simmons, and Janney are all superb as well. the characters are flawed. but you learn to love them for their flaws. they dont suddenly become perfect to wrap things up nicely. you as the viewer just learn to accept and love them for their flaws. its quite humane and wonderful.

This was no where near as good as LMS. I went into this movie thinking that (because that's what I read), and holy shit was I disappointed.

way better. i almost hated LMS.

dialogue was sometimes a bit much, but mostly great. kinda like gilmore girls in a 2 hour movie. which is a good thing. if you were a fan of GG def watch this.

very well cast. kitty pryde was just perfect. allison janey had some great lines, and im glad they didnt hate each other.

the biggest disappointment was george michael and jason bateman not sharing any screentime together.

nice little soundtrack as well

i honestly had a grin on my face during the whole movie.

Not sure how I feel about all these LMS comparisons... They certainly share some common ground but I think Juno tends to lean towards the more subdued and possibly honest side of things.

Now I liked LMS a lot... It probably made me laugh more than Juno did, but of course it went at greater lengths to get those laughs. I didn't find Juno to be too terribly wacky or quirky... Look at the van in Juno vs. the van in Little Miss Sunshine. That pretty much sums up all you need to know about how these films differ in the way they deliver their humor.

Great dialogue delivered by solid acting is what sells this film. I didn't find it to be too quirky or written-sounding. Juno is one of those smart ass high schoolers who almost always has a snarky retort up the sleeve. That sort of thing only really bothers me when everyone in the movie is just as witty. But the characters all displayed varying degrees of snark so I was able to buy into it.

The story tossed a few twists and turns in there that I didn't go in expecting (I didn't expect to like Garner, either). Good stuff.

I will say that if this movie suffered from any of its own quirkiness, the blame probably falls on the soundtrack guy's shoulders. Hey soundtrack guy, when is it ever appropriate to play a Moldy Peaches song during a labor scene? Way to take me out of it, soundtrack guy.

Oh and how about that opening title sequence, huh? That was Shadowplay, same outfit that did the also-excellent opening title sequence to the also excellent 'Thank You for Smoking'.

@kennykeil

JK Simmons, Ellen Page, and Jennifer Garner were all great. Michael Cera is one of the best awkward actors ever...and judging from the TSOYA podcast where Jesse interviewed him, I'm not sure he's really acting. The scene with Rainn Wilson was great, but who'da thought Vern Schillinger would be able to be a funny, likable father character?

Anyway, I get the LMS comparisons, but IMO this movie was much funnier than LMS...whereas LMS is likely the better movie.

i actually did not find juno to be a very likable main character, but i like ellen page anyway and i think she put in a really good effort. i also really enjoyed allison janney, michael cera, and jennifer garner (who suprised me).

Think I would've liked it better if I hadn't read all those gushy reviews. Didn't really find it all that brilliant. "Ghost World" is still the classic in the awkward, quirky White kid genre to me. This felt like the girl version of all the Wes Anderson/Noah Baumbach films.

Definitely a winner for the Jason Bateman/Jen Garner performances and putting me on to the Moldy Peaches/Kimya Dawson, who I'd never taken the time to listen to before the film.

Still, it was solid.
But ingratiating to be sure.

and who else suspects there are some more Rainn scenes that got cut?

http://preptimeposse.blogspot.com/

that it got less forced as it went on. As if the writer didn't go back and do rewrites, she just wrote through it once and found her rhythm as she went.

sounded like they were reading from a piece of paper

But yeah, aside from some of the dialogue, I dug it

Most of the really jarring dialogue seemed to be towards the beginning.

>Most of the really jarring dialogue seemed to be towards the

the opening scene was horrible.

it seemed more natural (the dialogue) as the film went on.

Just saw Juno. I did find the dialogue to be slightly Gilmore Girlsesque. It was snappy and felt very forced in the beginning, but mellowed considerably as the movie went. I loved Gilmore Girls for about one season and then couldn't stomach the cutesiness and snappy talk any longer.

I wasn't crazy about Little Miss Sunshine, but I really enjoyed Juno. Ellen Page and Michael Cera made this great. Supporting players (especially Jen Garner and Allison Janey) were flawless and the music was on point. Loved the suburbia scenes and the ending was nice. I thought this was a solid movie. Not really brilliant, but an excellent first effort from Diablo. I would see more of her stuff.

it was like he was interviewing her, not ellen page. i guess she might really be like that.

aww i hope i see him at the mall.

but i disliked this movie mostly because of juno.

all of the stuff that people find endearing about it felt too try hard to me. everyone else was pretty much awesome, but juno...man.

if you're trying to make a movie about normal people, why can't thye be normal? this movie was all over the place.

now i must watch hard candy so i can decide ellen page's fate in my future.

The dialogue was quite out there at the start(seemingly trying too hard to prove that these cats were kinda edgy teenagers), but it became far more believable as the movie went on.

Regardless of that, I thought the performances were excellent, particularly those of Page and Garner. Just excellent casting and acting all around, teamed with some hilarious writing.

I found the pacing to be excellent along with the mix of comedy to dramatic moments....almost reminded me of the top-tier Scrubs episodes.

Very enjoyable movie for me.

I wanted to strangle that bitch in the very first scene. Like someone mentioned above, the dialogue got less annoying as the movie went on, but it felt way too forced. Too desperate to be hip.
