Juno - Not bad. Mostly, it works. It does try too hard to be hip &mdash seriously, you actually wrote a character saying the line, "Honest to blog?" And isn't that song Juno and Bleeker play together at the end awfully
contempo-indie-folk for someone who spends the rest of the film talking about
Iggy and the Stooges and the
1977 punk explosion? But, on the trying-too-hard-to-be-hip, aggressively-quirky score, it's nowhere
near as bad as
Napoleon Dynamite, so there's that. The always-watchable J. K. Simmons does good work as Juno's dad. Overall, worth seeing once, anyway.
