Let's make this quite clear: a 16 year old girl who has unprotected sex with her boyfriend and then acts surprised when she gets pregnant isn't too bright. This is not a smart kid. This is 2008, for crying out loud, can't ...read more

This movie couldn't have been titled anything else. Like Pretty Woman before it, the appeal of Juno begins and ends with an uber-charming (although fairly unrealistic) heroine. The film does share a few good insights along...read more

What can I say about the movie "Juno"? Well, I would begin with the fact that I fell in love with Ellen Page after I saw her in "X-Men: The Last Stand". There was just something about this little Canadian actress that spok...read more
