My problem with Juno is that it tried to hard. It wound up being a generic, quirky indie comedy that forced pop culture references down your throat ad nauseum. It had an uninteresting plot and dialogue that seemed very contrived. On the flip side, Ellen Page was very sympathetic and likable, and I thought the supporting cast was strong too. It's the only thing that prevents me from claiming it a bad movie.

That is EXACTLY how I feel. The quirkiness and overly contrived dialog made me really dislike it. Performances were ok but not enough to save the movie. I later sat thru the also overly contrived and ridiculous "Hard Candy" and realized I did not like Ellen Page, at all.
