Juno, no no.

I finally saw Juno. If anyone here could possibly tell me what all the fuss was about, I'd like to hear it. It wasn't dreadful, but it certainly wasn't outstanding--not even close--and I'm damned if Diablo Cody doesn't turn out something of a salted mine.

I thought it was generally all right as movies go, but I too wondered at all the fuss.

Yeah. I saw it on the plane in March, and that was kind of my reaction. Nice enough, some *really* problematic moments, and a touch on the smug side, I thought.

Not saying I agree, but it protrayed a character type who is generally despised by the buttoned-up class as likeable and intelligent.

I liked the movie and thought it did a good job being relatively neutral considering it's subject matter. But I have never met a person who fit her stereotype and was a smart as she was. My ability to suspend disbelief wasn't working very well. That took it down a notch for me.
