At times, the movie feels like a commercial for Wonder Bread, stretched to feature length.
Michael O'Sullivan, Washington Post

Flipped is Rob Reiner's best film in 18 years.
James Berardinelli, ReelViews
Fresh
Flipped is as phony as a poodle-skirted waitress at a mall diner, yet it's as sweet as a malt. A vanilla one.
Joe Williams, St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Fresh
Reiner, who made the similarly themed The Sure Thing about opposites who repel and attract, is a most sympathetic director of actors.
Carrie Rickey, Philadelphia Inquirer
Fresh
It's a bit too Wonder Years at times, but the odd two-narrators gimmick plays right into the film's "flip" in structure.
Roger Moore, Orlando Sentinel
