My daughter ended up watching this at her friend's house - mistake. There is a disregard for the seriousness of unplanned teenage pregnancy and the 'just make a call to get rid of your problem' consideration of abortion - a poignant example of society's attempt to swep under the carpet life's consequences instead of working through them. Ultimately Juno did make the honorable decision. The scene with the adopted father-to-be was twisted and way mature for kids. The movie is good for the mature audience, but was marketed for a way to young crowd.

Attitudes toward sex are cavalier, language and discussions are not appropriate for young teens.

VERY GOOD, i actually really liked it!!! i have to admit though, the first time i sat down to watch it, i thought i was gonna fall asleep, but it wasn't that boring, and it was easy to follow.

Someone who has seen a bunch of interesting movies should see Juno. This movie is very sad but it is also funny in some parts. The movie starts out in a chair. Juno is 16 and pregnant. She doesn’t take the pregnancy as joke but she just utters wisecracks as if they were breathing exercises, referring to herself as “the cautionary whale.” All of the characters acting in the movie are really good. Juno was going to get and abortion but she decides to give her child to a couple that can’t have children. To get the best out of Juno you will need a box of tissues and a nice comfortable bed to cuddle and enjoy the movie.

Its a heavy movie to watch, something that I would recommend an audience of 16+. It deals with one of todays bigger issues of teen pregnancies which has been a growing problem in our nation in recent years. The cast is likeable and over is a well thought out and written movie. It would be a good movie for the older teens to watch so that they may get a better understanding of what a family has to go through during those tough times. Often times helecopter parents will tell their kids just "no sex" and give little reason as to why, or give them horror stories to scare them out of having kids in the first place. But in this movie it shows what a teen has to go through and how the parents may react also. The main character faces against difficult decisions whether to abort the child or not and how her choices will effect her life and conscience. In the end though she comes out a more mature being from her experience. A good movie for any mature teen.
