Rob Reiner's nostalgic romcom doesn't quite hit the mark the way his other films have. While the movie does convey the general awkwardness of being a teenager in the 1950s. Unfortunately, it also drags out the ignorance of a generation out along with it. Rebecca De Mornay and John Mahoney are thankfully around to save us all from the overwhelming ignorance conveyed by Anthony Edwards (who loses quite a few brownie points in my book for taking this part in the first place).Madeline Carroll is an incredible find, though her character is a little overdone, and Callan McAuliffe is convincing as the awkward teen as he most likely had just survived his awkward teens when cast for the film. It's a film you REALLY WANT to like if you're a fan of Reiner's work, but in general the film drags on a little too much, highlighting comments of VAST ignorance that the mixed audience viewing the film with me found very offensive.

I only have 4 favorite movies, Cast Away, 50 First Dates, One More Chance and Flipped..And among all these, only Flipped made me wanted to watch it over and over, getting the same nostalgic and satisfying feeling every time..I believe that only really good movies can make you feel that way..I loved how I understood each of the leading roles' point of view in same scenes which are played twice..I enjoyed the detailed phasing of this movie that even the minor roles were as essential as the leading ones.Moreover, the setting of this movie suits perfectly in its genre which is old-school teenage romance.I realized how charming and beautiful first love could be especially when started at early age,,This movie finally gave justice to how my first love drama turned out.. I always recommend this movie every time I'm asked about what good movies to watch!

Watching the movie, 5th time today; I flipped again. The story has been written in a wonderful and deep manner. The way the emotions of both sides of coin ( the boy and the girl) have been portrayed is very connecting. At all point of time while watching the movie one can actually put herself/himself in the shoes of the characters. Family ties, childhood notions, societal upbringing and school for teenagers have actually been brought to life.A must watch for audience appreciating deep emotions reflected via a common man's life. Its a dive into everyone's childhood dreams. A reflection of how children learn, grow and love truly. Callan and Madeline have given a clean soul to the characters visualized by Rob Reiner. This movie's definitely gonna leave you in a smiling stance pondering of your own childhood, your own sycamore tree :)

I really, really liked this film and now wonder why it didn't make more impact when it debuted. Perhaps it was just one of those films that slipped between the cracks because "Flipped" is a wonderful coming of age film--and is among director Rob Reiner's best.The film is set mostly in the early 1960s. A young boy, Bryce, moves to a new neighborhood and almost instantly the girl across the street, Juli, begins mooning over him and acting like she's infatuated with him. But he's 7--and hating girls and mushy stuff is normal and he resists her charms. But she persists as the years pass--and she's convinced herself that Bryce is her dream boy. But, as the years pass, Bryce is just as convinced that Juli is a pest. However, eventually, Bryce's attitude starts to change...too bad Juli's is as well!This is a remarkable film in so many ways. The direction is wonderful--perfectly paced and very sweet. The writing is also exceptionally sweet and enchanting. It also helped that there were some wonderful supporting actors to assist in telling the story-- some characters you really liked and cared about and a couple who were complete jerks. John Mahoney was particularly good, but the entire cast was wonderful in this movie. Overall, the elements all work together to tell a sweet story that anyone could love. My only quibble, and it's a very minor one, is about the music. Too many older films are saturated with oldies music. While a bit is nice, with some it sounds more like a best of record album...and at times I would have preferred "Flipped" to have been a bit quieter. Not a major complaint by any means and I still give this film a well deserved 9.
