LastingAware The greatest movie ever!
Limerculer A waste of 90 minutes of my life
Humaira Grant It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.
Claire Dunne One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.
jacklee-82703 Phenomenal performances from J.K. Simmons and Miles Teller, compelling and intense plot, and overall a great movie.
albertdavis-36594 This film is an extremely intense watch. The characterisation, soundtrack and story blend together in a nightmarish realism. The themes explored in Whiplash ought to ring true with anyone who has been through the education system and fallen prey to high expectations and the desire to succeed. Miles Teller does an excellent job portraying the protag - someone who has a strong need for stardom or recognition, and feels unsupported by his family who don't seem to value his interests. There are a couple of twists in this film that make it really engaging and unpredictable. Definitely a must watch.
mitchngreen What an experience this journey with Andrew was. An absolute rollercoaster of emotions from start to finish. This film manages to motivate and inspire me to work harder, do better and let nothing stop me from getting what I want. That's how you know it's a masterpiece.
Haseeb Guru Well i had number of movies last night in my watch list. It was really tough to select a movie from such amazing collection. I was actually looking for a short, not much complex and simple adventurous yet inspiring movie.This movie had all the ingredients I was looking for, I was also wondering during opening credits, that by trailer it looked like a movie about a student and his tough, strict and abusive coach which kind of made the movie predictable. But still I was hoping some character twist that's why it was so popular.This movie from start till end is engaging and entertaining, there is not a single dull moment, and because of much detailed and inspiring sequences, it looked like a biopic movie many times, and I was amazed that all it is, is a fictional story.Performances by Miles Teller and J.K. Simmons were amazing, in fact watching Sir J.K Simmons was so pleasurable, and his performance was so flawless and believable. The other actors Paul Reiser as Andrew's father Melissa Benoist as beautiful Nicole and the other actors as musician were amazing in their roles as well.In a nutshell, this is a worth watching movie. You will not be bored and it will give you some inspiration for your career and way of thinking.
