Description: The film centers on the title characters of Jeni (Park Min-ji) and Juno (Kim Hye-song), two fifteen year old middle school students whose one night of romance has dramatic consequences for both their lives. After careful deliberation, the two expectant parents decide to keep the baby. However, they also decide to keep the pregnancy a secret from everyone, even their families. But just how long will Jeni and Juno be able to hide the truth from their parents? Although much debate has raged over the content of the film, the truth is that Jeni,Juno isn?t overtly sexual in the least (the actual sex occurs off-screen). Instead, the filmmakers focus their attention not only on the issues and concerns related to teen pregnancy, but also tap into the fantasy of parenthood itself, taking the typical romantic comedy plot into unexplored territory for the genre. And despite whatever controversy it enflamed, Jeni, Juno is a cutesy romance sure to spark conversation between parents and their teenage children!

Jenny & Juno Reviewed by HAVA-RAVA

First of all I’ll tell you why I watched this; I was scrolling through DC and saw that there was a movie named Jenny & Juno. I thought "What movie is named like that? Sounds like some soap bubble movie for little kids." I was sure I had heard the name of the movie somewhere and then I remembered. I heard the name on facebook. Yup. My friend had commented on one music video (Cyndi Wang’s song to Momo Love OP) I had shared there.

So today after school I was really bored and looking for something to watch. I was planning to continue Lucky Seven but realized that I want to watch a Korean movie after a long time. And I haven’t watched many K-movies either. This was my 4th K-movie.

THIS IS WHERE THE REAL REVIEW BEGINS :D

Anyhow, the plot of the movie was very good. Main reason why I decided to watch this was the plot. Mainly because it’s really similar to my all-time fav j-drama 14-sai no Haha.

Acting was…well how could I say it. The main actor and actress were REALLY CUTE. They were so cute that I couldn’t concentrate on the acting…Plus I always kept comparing the actress of Jenny to Shida Mirai’s superb acting in 14-sai no Haha. So acting in this one didn’t blow me out.

When the music started for the 1st time I thought it was really cute and catchy. Then while the movie went on the music stayed the same, only singers changed. So I got annoyed of the fact that the music was repeating and repeating again.

I think I won’t be re-watching this. I usually don’t re-watch series/movies unless they’re something "special" to me or unless they blew my mind out while I watched them.

So overall this was a cute movie but nothing special. Thus I’ll give this a 6.

Thanks for reading my review ^^.
