Juno

I liked it.

The only weak part for me, was in lab class, the arguing couple having a fight in front of Juno & Bleeker. That was dumb. The rest of it I think was pretty good.

( It has been pointed out, that for all of Juno's love of Iggy Pop sure doesn't show in her singing with Bleeker, or in the movie soundtrack.)

grade B

So, what would I do if Miss Squeaky was preggers, or Mr. Grunty got someone preggers in High School?

Weak part: Not getting the father's permission before giving up the baby for adoption - at least, there was no mention of that.

And just a criticism - I had to cringe when Juno said to the adoptive mother "at least you don't have to be pregnant" or some such thing. Not a thing that someone with infertility wants to hear.

I think that was the point of her saying that, so the audience could see the adoptive mother's reaction.

I know that if any of my kids, mostly the girls, came home pregers, I would do everything in my power to keep their lives on track. I would make sure they finish school and have the education that they need and not make the mistake that I did by leaving college and picking it up 11 years later.
