Review of Flipped (2010) by Ilaria R — 01 Dec 2010
In this adaptation of the novel Flipped by Wendelin Van Draanen is easy to notice that everything is moved to the early 60's (in the book is around 2000) and I have to say that was a very smart move from the director Rob Reiner. If you remember him as a director of Stand by Me (1986), The Princess Bride (1987), When Harry Met Sally... (1989), A Few Good Men (1992), North (1994), The American President (1995), The Story of Us (1999) and The Bucket List (2007)(just few of his many movies) you'll know that he knows how to make the audience feel the characters as their own!
And he did just that in Flipped: made us feel that real love story of second graders Juli (Madeline Carroll) and Bryce (Callan McAuliffe) who are, somehow, always staying together through triumph and disaster, family dramas and new discoveries that will define their personallities.
Enjoy and charish this precious movie!
