| iAfrica.com Nils van der Linden  Jason Reitman's film is achingly funny, mining a particularly rich vein of black humour. | 15 | |
| Sunday Times Barry Ronge | 15 | |
| 24.com Megan Kakora A quirky, heartwarming story that's so touching in its simplicity and weirdness you can forgive the odd boom mic popping into scenes. | 15 | |
| BBC Stella Papamichael Reitman has delivered a bundle of joy. | 15 | |
| Chicago Sunday Times Roger Ebert Jason Reitman's Juno is just about the best movie of the year. It is very smart, very funny and very touching; it begins with the pacing of a screwball comedy and ends as a portrait of characters we have come to love. | 20 | |
| eye Weekly Jason Anderson Barring any unforeseen late-trimester complications, it looks as if nothing can go wrong for this holiday’s best (and only) feel-good teen-pregnancy comedy. | 10 |  |
| ReelViews James Berardinelli Juno is the kind of the film where a viewer almost needs to look for a reason to dislike it for it not to work. It's charming without being saccharine. It's funny without being rude or dishonest. It's smart without being smart-assed. And it's got enough heart to keep the comedic elements in check. | 18 | |
| Rolling Stone Peter Travers The devil in Cody's script lets in wit, anger, distress and the pain of romantic longing. Juno is more than a few smiles — it makes you laugh deeply. It's one from the bruised heart. | 18 | |
| ScreenItAn enjoyable, highly entertaining, and even occasionally touching offering that takes a unique approach to telling the tale of a pregnant teen. | 14 | |
