Juno (2007): Netflixin 5/6/08

Ok, just for kicks n' giggles, I'm going to start putting blurbs about movies I get via Netflix on here. Not drawn-out critical reviews, since there are plenty of them around if you want them. No, just a sentence or two. Your humble blog author's opinions.

Ok, first one:

• Why I rented it: It played at the Kentucky Theater for weeks on end. Supposedly edgy, underground, all of that.
• Verdict: 7.5 / 10. Better than average, but probably works better as a story than as a movie. The witty repartee is amusing, but it sounds too much like what old people in MTV boardrooms think teenagers talk like. Edgy content: this movie mentions Sonic Youth and Dario Argento. Also, thick Canadian accents are fun.
