Anyone seen it yet? The Guardian bloke called it "cinematic prozac", a very apt description, it's a lovely film. Apart from a scene at an abortion clinic which looks like it had been made by fanatical pro lifer it's note perfect.

I've not seen it yet but hopefully will do on Monday. All the reviews and the trailers suggest a bit of a classic, hopefully.

I saw an elsebound train, on the overpass
In the driving rain, every ticket costs the same
For where you can't go
Mustang horses, champagne glasses
Anything frail anything wild
It's the price of living motion, what's beautiful is broken
And grace is just the measure of a fall.

my dear gal went to see it this weekend and says

"it is a lovely little film, warm and full of humanity and a great soundtrack"

Wow you guys, you never fail to amaze me! I form an impression of you, snarling or a-wailing, and then you tell us you are off to see Juno. Just goes to show you can't judge a book by it's cover. Enjoy the film!

It was good, I think I need to watch it a few more times though. Ellen Page is fantstic though as is her step mother! The soundtrack is brill it has Belle and Sebastien, Sonic Youth not to mention others

I saw it when it came out here in the states. I really liked it. Clever and sweet with intelligence. That kid playing the baby-father who was also in Superbad is just heartbreakingly sweet, I hope he isn't a putz in real life that would be so disappointing. Also hope he doesn't get typecast. --- god I know I'm getting older when teenagers and young twentysomethings stir those maternal instincts.... oh well, my parents warned me it would happen.

Watched it other night and thought it was brilliant. That Ellen Page is one hell of an actress, the whole thing was really well paced, well observed and immaculately put together. Watched Hard Candy (from 2005) the next day ...Ellen Page stars again though her character is a little more 'challenging'.

you mean Michael Cera? he's a legend in my mind for his performance as George Michael Bluth in the greatest tv show in the history of the world (fact) 'Arrested Development'.

I watched it last night...you know what they have at Walmart now....dvd vending machines You slide your credit card, select a film and out it drops like a can of bloody pop...and only costs a dollar!

Anyway back to the film, oh how mature and sensible everyone was...if only reality could be even slightly like that, in some ways I think it would be a great film for every teenager (and parent) to watch, you see, teeage pregnancy is absolutely not the end of the world, "I was hoping she was a crack addict, or had been expelled from school" , but in other ways I found it portrayed teenage pregnancy as an easy and emotionally painless experience, and the prospect of giving a baby up for adoption simplistic and the obvious choice. I have to speak personally and I can't imagine it being such an easy choice....the main character was 16?! She had the maturity level of a 45 year old, not saying I didn't absolutely love it (Jason Bateman was great) I just found it all a bit beyond belief, the only person who seemed to have any emotional attachment to the baby was Jennifer Garner. It really does sound like I didn't love it eh? But I really did.

The music was great too...off to discover The Moldy Peaches.
