When they meet in second grade, Juli Baker falls instantly in love with her neighbor, Bryce Loski. Bryce, however, does not feel the spark. From that day forward, he (Callan McAuliffe) tries hard to keep brash and unpredictable Juli (Madeline Carroll) at bay. After six years, she begins to feel that she was wrong about him being the love of her life. Unfortunately, that is just about the time that Bryce begins to think he was wrong about Juli, too.

Critics Consensus

While not without its nostalgic charms, Rob Reiner's sometimes awkward adaptation of Wendelin Van Draanen's childhood novel doesn't reach the heights of the director's earlier work like Stand By Me.

At times, the movie feels like a commercial for Wonder Bread, stretched to feature length.

Flipped is as phony as a poodle-skirted waitress at a mall diner, yet it's as sweet as a malt. A vanilla one.

Madeline Carroll grows the most throughout the film and undoubtedly makes the most of her screen time.

Rated: 1.0/4.0

Though told in a somewhat cutesy, sock-hop style, Flipped works well as a film about character that entertains the tween/teen set without preaching at them.

Some critics might overlook the charm of Flipped, but they miss the beauty in its simplicity. This movie captures the heart of young love in a way that feels both nostalgic and timeless. Most people probably wish they had experienced a love like this as kids, I know I do. The acting is heartfelt, and the writing perfectly balances humor, warmth, and honesty. Flipped is a fantastic movie that reminds us how meaningful the small moments in life can be.

Really loved how this movie is presented from two different angles, and the fact that these two different look belong to the most character-shaping era of human life. It made me return back to those years and empathize with the characters.

So many loose threads not tied up.. the movie just ends in the middle of the story. The movie tries to tell a story within other stories but never got to that peak
