I loved it, I REALLY loved it. Ellen Page is fanastic in the cool/but not cool teenager role and she plays the whole thing so perfectly. Micheal Cera is perfect, the guy who did the deed but has no idea how he got into this or what on earth to do about it .... the later scences in the hospital are beautiful. And the end song .... with Bleeker and Juno always makes me happy but cry... its also a perfect soundtrack !!!! Juno is a wonderful film ... its 9.5 out of 10 in my eyes.

For those that declaring that it's not as good as No Country and There Will Be Blood as far as competing for a Best Picture, you're correct. Seen them all and the other two are by far better films for that consideration. Though those who use the "it's unrealistic" excuse for dismissing Juno should really take a deep look at the plots of all films. No Country is somewhat far fetched in that a man would actively be walking around with a portable cattle gun. Just as wildly imaginative as Juno saying they shoot babies out of those t-shirt guns at sporting events. I don't know where many of you get your ideas for what films are supposed to be. They aren't supposed to be accurate reflections of your daily life. I wouldn't want to see you eat Cheerios, go to work or school and do ______ after that. The fantasy element is what makes movies worth going to. Think Michel Gondry. Yeah alot of people don't "understand" his films, but they're for escaping, not being bowled over by some impossible CGI created disaster. Movies are for expanding the frame. They're meant to engage your thoughts, make you laugh and yes give you a thrill. With that range you should just go to enjoy films instead of expecting something out of them. If you hated Juno thats fine, but loved Superbad then you're only juvenile. Thank you pseudo intellectual movie buffs.

If you mean "low budget" then just say it. Indie is easy to define...made by a member of the MPAA (assuming it's an American film)? Not independent. Made by anyone else? Independent. Really, if your definition means that a studio that's part of Rupert Murdoch's globe-spanning media empire can make "indie" films, your definition sucks, I don't care how many "industry analysts" say otherwise.

It was cool to see a film being made (even if it was just an indie movie), but I can't really say the title made it sound that pleasant. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0490170/ says they are currently still in post-production.
