Profile of Flipped

Flipped can be described as sentimental, touching, and feel good. The plot revolves around teenage love, coming of age, and youth. The main genres are romance, drama, and comedy. In approach, Flipped is realistic. It is set, at least in part, at a school. It is located in Michigan. Flipped takes place in contemporary times. It is based on a book. It is well suited for a girls' night, a date night, and teens. Note that Flipped involves profanity.

Summary of Flipped

Juli Baker devoutly believes in three things: the sanctity of trees (especially her beloved sycamore), the wholesomeness of the eggs she collects from her backyard flock of chickens, and that someday she will kiss Bryce Loski. Ever since she saw Bryce's baby blues back in second grade, Juli has been smitten. Unfortunately, Bryce has never felt the same. Frankly, he thinks Juli Baker is a little weird--after all, what kind of freak raises chickens and sits in trees for fun? Then, in eighth grade, everything changes. Bryce begins to see that Juli's unusual interests and pride in her family are, well, kind of cool. And Juli starts to think that maybe Bryce's brilliant blue eyes are as empty as the rest of Bryce seems to be. After all, what kind of jerk doesn't care about other people's feelings about chickens and trees? With Flipped, mystery author Wendelin Van Draanen has taken a break from her Sammy Keyes series, and the result is flipping fantastic. Bryce and Juli's rants and raves about each other ring so true that teen readers will quickly identify with at least one of these hilarious feuding egos, if not both. A perfect introduction to the adolescent war between the sexes.

Cute summer flick
This is a sweet movie that is also funny, and one of the better films of the year. Great way to spend a hot summer day in the theater watching these adorable characters on the big screen. No one tells love stories better than Rob Reiner, the...
Touching
Flipped really touched me. It was very sentimental, and to some extent reminded me of my childhood.
