Reason: You Need to Know Ellen Page
The star of the movie Juno is the talented, but little known actress Ellen Page. Last year, she gave a buzz worthy performance in the overlooked film Hard Candy. But she is set to be crowned the next Indie Queen after audiences catch her flawless performance in Juno.
Reason: Proof Jennifer Garner Can Act
Juno is already receiving Oscar buzz in a variety of categories. The most surprising category to hear Juno Oscar talk, though, is that of Jennifer Garner for supporting actress. Jennifer Garner plays the part of Vanessa Loring, the potential adopting mother for Juno's baby. Even if her role in Juno does not lead to any nominations, it's still worth checking out.
Reason: We Heart Little Miss Sunshine
Juno is being called this year's Little Miss Sunshine.... only better. I can hardly wait.
Reason: Fond Memories of Arrested Development
Two stars of Arrested Development reunite in Juno: Jason Bateman and Michael Cera. Jason Bateman plays the part of Mark Loring, the potential adopting father for Juno's baby. Michael Cera plays the part of Paulie Bleeker, the teenage father of Juno's baby. Both actors are bound to bring to Juno what they brought to Arrested Development.
Reason: The Screenwriter Has a Name
Any film where the all too often ignored screenwriter is mentioned by name has to be a pretty good movie. In the case of Juno, the name being dropped is Diablo Cody. Cody has a distinctive voice and, mostly likely, the best shot at an actual Oscar nomination.
Reason: For the Love of Music
Familiar with Kimya Dawson? Juno is. And if you're not, you will be after seeing the movie Juno. The soundtrack is simply impossible to ignore.
Reason: Because the Critics Say So
"Juno defies expectations at every turn" says Kirk Honeycutt of The Hollywood Reporter.
"Cody's script is pure gold" says Kim Voynar of Cinematical.
"Page's phenomenal performance certainly plays a significant role in the film's success" says David Nusair of Reel Film Reviews.
