To see or not to see
Aug. 6th, 2008 08:30 amGuys I have a question. Should I watch Juno? This is the impression of it I garnered from the commercials and movie reviews:
There's this girl and she gets pregnant. I have no idea if her boyfriend sticks around or not but whatever, I'm pretty sure the point is pregnant. Maybe she tosses away the boy afterwards. Anyways so pregnant girl is like 'WHAT oh no, I am too young for babies' and she's like 'hurrah adoption'! And then she goes on a quest for adoptive parents. And she finds a pair and she's like 'okay I am entrusting my baby to you. But you know, baby, bet you he/she will be pretty cute so I'm going to pop in sometimes to check on him/her. In exchange I will amuse you with my wacky teenage sayings'. And the adoptive parents are like 'Baby! =D Sure, we're cool with that'
And that's all I know. Wait, no, I remember one of reviews being all 'how refreshing to see a movie where the pregnancy isn't dealt with in the 'Adoption! Abortion! Adoption! Abortion! They both begin with A, which should I choooooose' way. So I think the girl was really chill about the pregnancy?
Anyways my dilemma is mostly because of the movie reviews. Because some of them were like 'wow, wicked awesome, so authentic, I call Oscar!'. But some of them were also 'OMG, dialogue so forced, I don't know any teen who talks like that, it isn't wacky when it's robotic'.
I don't know who to believe. :( But I'm pretty sure you all have better taste then said reviewers anyways so may I have your Juno opinions please?
