Review of Whiplash

Whiplash (2014)
9/10
Best drummer movie you will ever see
10 July 2017
Warning: Spoilers
In an attempt to become the next greatest musician, Andrew(Miles Teller) enlists at Shafer Conservatory, a New York music school, where he is brought into a local band where he meets Terrence Fletcher(JK Simmon), a music teacher renowned for his peculiar methods, who pushes him to the edge of his ability, mentality and sanity.

A really spectacular film. One of the greatest musician stories around, portrayed beautifully by such talented acting from Miles Teller and J.K. Simmons. Left me wanting more, and definitely had some twists and turns that I didn't expect, which was really nice.

I cannot find a major flaw with this movie. Granted, there isn't really such thing as a flawless movie but I cannot find a major flaw that takes you out of the viewing experience. The music is excellent. I mean the acting is spectacular. Perfectly written, spectacularly directed and honestly one of the best dramas made in the past decade.
