JuNo, Thank you

I watched the movie, Juno last night; I can't believe that everyone seems to be in love with this movie and that it got such great reviews! This movie rubbed me the wrong way for several reasons. First of all, being a cute, quirky teenager with snappy one-liners doesn't make it okay to get pregnant at 16. The movie seemed to glaze over this fact. I found the fact that even after the couple decides to get divorced, Juno still gives the baby to the mom a bit disturbing. Divorce is hard, especially when you're the one who got dumped. Is it really the ideal time to take on the huge responsibility of caring for a newborn? Also, what about the pressure that this woman will inevitably put on her new son; she'll look to him to provide her happiness--is that really fair?! Also, Juno talks about needing to know that two people can stay together forever, and her dad tells her that you have to find someone that loves you for exactly who you are. Okay, I can buy that. Then, Juno says that she found that person and professes her love to the clueless daddy, Bleaker. Okay, nobody finds true love at 16, except maybe Romeo and Juliet. Are we really supposed to believe that in ten years these two will still find each other irrestible? Puh-lease! In ten years, Juno won't be so cute and she certainly still won't be traipsing around saying "boss" and "schiz" and drinking big ass slushies. We all grow up and change. Then, when you are out of adolescence and know who you really are, then, maybe, you can find someone to love. Finally, the movie makes adoption seem so easy! As if women can easily give babies up and not be changed forever. I know, I know, it's just a movie. But it's a movie that is supposed to show a real-life situation, right? It's not like a cartoon or a Freddy movie when you know that the whole thing is fantasy and you accept that. This movie is about a real-life situation but has no reality in it!
