Very rarely does one come across a romantic comedy with so much wit, fun, and satire. Juno's responses are hilarious and sweet-tempered, perceptive and surprisingly grounded to the entire situational dynamic. Though I found names hard to grasp, other than Juno's obviously, the characters managed to generate enough sympathy so that you can't seem to truly hate anyone for being the way they are. Perhaps that is why this movie comes across so solid and clever; with romance as authentic as can be, you can still be "indie" as hell, but still bring home the undeniable charm. 8.6/10.
