"Once" and "Juno"
I saw Once tonight and really liked it. It's a very simple but well told story about a boy and a girl. They are both musicians so it borders on a musical at times but not in a way that would bug people who don't care for them.
Friday I saw Juno in a theater which was quite packed for a movie not involving wizards or pirates. I also really liked this one. A high school girl gets pregnant and is none to happy about it. Offbeat, irreverent and funny like Knocked Up but that's about as far as the similarities go. Juno explores adoption; I have no idea why this isn't a more pursued option in our society.
Not the most verbose reviews you will ever read, but oh well. For a real reviewer, check out the Filthy Critic. His Kung Fu is strong.
