Hubby is upstairs putting Robby back to sleep for like the illionth time. Anyway, I LOVE Jennifer Garner in this movie.

Then when I saw that wasn't where you were going at all I just enjoyed your take on it.<BR/><BR/>The one thing I thought about after watching it was that they never explained how the pregnancy happened... I mean, I KNOW how, but like, if they'd even been careful or if the condom broke or if it was just a freak thing that just happened. In a way that was good because that would have been a whole lot more stuff to wade through and judge. But that was something that worried me, because I thought Juno was pretty cool and it bothered me if she was just plain irresponsible. Although, even if that was the case, as you said, she paid the price.<BR/><BR/>I also loved the part where her step mom reamed out the ultrasound tech.<BR/>"Well, I'm a nail technician." So funny.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, so glad (and relieved) that you liked it and can still feel that you trust me in regards to movies.Mama Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13581319298585887199noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18298740.post-76432165333192381982008-05-22T22:22:00.000-07:002008-05-22T22:22:00.000-07:00I haven't seen it yet, but after that review, I wi...I haven't seen it yet, but after that review, I will.

Yes, it wasn't perfect — some bits were a little too flip — like the movie had taken her whole humor-as-defense thing a step too far — but mostly, I really liked it. Not least because this has been a bad season for seeing women and girls on film who were anything but simpering idiots and armcandy for the menfolk. I agree with your assessment of the mom (love Jennifer Garner) and I thought Juno's parents were both wonderful. Love both those actors in anything and their styles just worked REALLY well for those roles.elizasmomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14450026334750091569noreply@blogger.com
