Movies Based On Books You Should Have Read In 7th Grade

Here is a list of all the movies based on books that you might have or should have read while in the seventh grade. Some of these films are based on classic literature like One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest and The Great Gatsby, while others, such as Ender’s Game, are successful movies adapted from fairly new books. All of these films and stories deal with subjects and themes appropriate for tween audiences, and many feature young protagonists coming-of-age and dealing with puberty, whether in ordinary or extraordinary circumstances. Use this list to take a trip down memory lane to junior high or middle school or to look for movies you can use as a CliffsNotes substitute (we've all been there).
