Whip It is a 2009 American sports comedy-drama film written by Shauna Cross, based on her novel Derby Girl.

The film is directed and co-produced (with Barry Mendel) by Drew Barrymore in her directorial debut.

It stars Ellen Page as a teenager from the fictional town of Bodeen, Texas, who joins a roller derby team. It also stars Barrymore, Alia Shawkat, Marcia Gay Harden, Daniel Stern, Carlo Alban, Landon Pigg in his feature-film debut, Jimmy Fallon, Kristen Wiig, Zoë Bell, Eve, Andrew Wilson, Juliette Lewis and Ari Graynor. The film premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival on September 13, 2009 and was theatrically released on October 2, 2009 in the United States by Fox Searchlight Pictures.

The film received generally positive reviews from critics but did not perform well financially, having made $16.6 million worldwide against its $15 million budget.[2] It also received two WIN Award nominations for Outstanding Actress Feature Film for Ellen Page and Drew Barrymore. Whip It was released on DVD and Blu-ray in January 26, 2010 by 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment.

The movie has inspired many people to start playing roller derby, including several current top level players like Scald Eagle.[3]

    Right.  You just read the credits.  It says an extraordinary film.  You cheated.

    "Whiplash" is cinematic adrenalin. In an era when so many films feel more refined by focus groups or marketing managers, it is a deeply personal and vibrantly alive drama. Damien Chazelle has taken a relatively staid subject like the relationship between a music student and his teacher and turned it into a thriller built on a brilliant undercurrent of social commentary about what it takes to make it in an increasingly competitive and cutthroat world. How far are you willing to push yourself to succeed? How far are you willing to push someone else to force them on the path to success? Carried by two electric performances, the tightest editing in a film this year and a daring screenplay that writes itself into a corner and then somehow finds an unexpected way out, "Whiplash" is as breathless as a drum solo, rising and falling just as the hopes and dreams of its protagonist climb and crash.

    No doofus, I saw it. That's the guy from the Farmers commercials- "we've seen it because we've covered it."

    He won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor. GREAT performance.

  • "Crack the Whip" ...  is a simple outdoor children's game that involves physical coordination,
                                   and is usually played in small groups, either on grass or ice, usually grass.
