So I saw Jennifer's Body last night. Diablo Cody is still up to her slangy dialog writing tricks, which blunted the impact of any horror movie scares the movie might have had. But as a comedy it made for a mildly amusing, enjoyable watch, even if not very LOL. I found the friction between the two tones interesting and it made me a fan of her style.
Also, Megan Fox really surprised me with how good an actress she is. But is it good acting, casting, or directing? and is there really much of a difference in all those things?

talking about reitman there, not the (weird) journalist
i rank this up there with 500 days of summer (which was even worse) as the film with the most cloyingly overplayed references to its characters' love of indie rock

I recently passed by the Milk and Honey store in Port Coquitlam where some of this movie was filmed. It's now gone - closed down after about 40 years. However there's a tattoo place close by called "Ink and Honey".

What a piece of shit movie. Fake cleverness, piss-poor dialogue masquerading as edgy, annoying and dislikable characters, and forced preciousness. Also that one song is a total rip-off of "Surrey with the Fringe on Top" from Oklahoma.
― Lazarus Niles-Burnham (res), Wednesday, 22 December 2010 23:08 (thirteen years ago) link
was at a video rental place the other day, and the clerk was watching the last act of juno. i'd been on the fence about the film at the time of its release and have halfheartedly defended it since, but holy shit is it grating! i sincerely regret anything nice i might ever have said about it. ellen page's performance is horribly forced, and the dialogue an agonizing parade of desperate would-be cleverness. oh god, and the saccharine, cutie-pie nonsense music, it never stops. the whole thing is trying so hard in every moment to be smart, hip and endearing that it becomes a terrible form of abuse. the worst part was that i had come into the store near the end of the film and was glad when it was over, only to have the dude start the damn thing up again, like he was studying it. chased me right back out into the street (which may have been the point, i dunno).

this isnt a bad movie - like, it's not for me at all, but i expected it to be a lot worse - thought the jen garner character was pretty well handled
had NO idea it made that much money though. i knew it was pretty successful but jesus.

see i'd be fine if this at all sounded or acted like teenagers. but wtf was the dialogue? most of the characters sounded like they had a mental disability. it was like cody watched buffy, decided that wasn't enough and tried to do uber whedon dialogue and forgot to make any of it sound logical or make sense.
i don't care that this movie was twee, or lol pro-life or whatever. i just wish that for a precocious teen movie is should have been written to at least be like precocious teens and not some old skank strippers idea of what precocious teens sound like.
