Jeni, Juno

This is a cute comedy. It is about the complex problem of early teen pregnancy.

I think that what makes the film special and enjoyable is that the young man reacts to the situation with maturity and responsibility well beyond his years. At 13, he decides that he needs to grow up fast, so he can take care of his girlfriend and his child. His attitude is pretty much "I've screwed up, but I'm going to do my best to make things right." I can't help but think that if more young men reacted that way, the world would be a better place.

There are plenty of funny moments, and no doubt more than a few comments on Korean society.

In summary, a funny and cute film about a serious subject. If only real life were more like the movie. :-(

So, Jenny and Juno are two high school kids who decide to take the plunge into parenthood, and here's where things get a bit too glossy. Jenny comes from this cushy, well-to-do family where having a baby seems like just another item on the to-do list. Seriously, it's like they're stocking up on diapers next to the caviar. I'm not saying every movie needs to be a downer, but come on! In the real world, not every teen has a safety net made of money and supportive parents. The film kind of sends this weird message that it's all rainbows and butterflies when you're expecting a baby in high school, especially if you're financially stable. Newsflash: That's not how it goes for a lot of teenagers out there who might not have the same privileges.

Sure, it's a romantic comedy, but the topic at hand is a bit too serious to be sugarcoated, and it ends up feeling like it's living in an alternate universe. What's the deal with making it seem like having a baby in high school is just a minor inconvenience? For many teens, it's a life-altering event with real consequences. The film could have done better by shedding some light on the challenges rather than painting this rosy picture.

This film impressed me a lot because of its combination of the romance between the teen couples and the humor caused by their innocence. In the eyes of the adults, especially in some eastern countries, the teens at their age should not be involved in love, getting pregnant will be definitely unacceptable and accused. And this would cause a deep hurt to the young lovers which may not be recovered. It moves me a lot that Juno took the responsibility of taking care of Jeni. He is so brave in his age. And their innocent love is so pure and simple. It's not a film about ethic. The writer makes it a comedy because he wants to tell the audience being in love is not wrong for the teens. The most important part is the responsibility they should take and the care and help the parents and the society should give.

I love this film!

Jenny Juno's story is a complex story that is simply packaged. A pair of teenagers who become a parents at young age. The storyline at the beginning was a little slow, but nearing the middle, the story became nice to watch. Many teenage comedies are packed in this story, so even though this story is basically heavy but because of the touch of comedy, it becomes nice to watch and seems more fresh.

The moral message of this story can be taken well. About the responsibility of a pair of teenagers for the mistakes they have made. Indirectly, teaches us about being mature. This story teaches us to be careful in doing, and responsible for what we have done regardless of the consequences. However, I am a little less amenable to the feelings of the two main characters and their friends who don't seem to show guilt for doing things that violate the norm, or maybe even look happy after what they've done. Regardless, the main story of the film is not focused on it, but about the things that happened after that so I don't think it's a problem.

Another thing that should be appreciated is that the two main characters are able to portray the character very well. The character of adolescents who are curious, careless, and drunk in love really looks natural. Also the character of those who appear when faced the problem, with being parents, can be played well in tandem. The actors and actress are able to help the story be well conveyed.

Finally, I was impressed with how this story was packed. A pair of teenagers who face twists and turns to become parents at a young age. I love this film.

This is a comedy on a subject of a 13 year old couple who must hide the fact that there having a baby. The couple who are still in middle school (Grade 9) find out that there having a baby and now must figure out what to do.

It's a nice story on a serious matter of early pregnancy. They have to figure out how much they love each other and how to keep their secret from everyone.

The two main actors are a great combination together and I find the story very well done and believable for their situation. When watching the movie I feel like supporting those two every part of the way.
