Whiplash is currently the #140 movie of all time on IMDb. But it very well could be my favorite. As a learning drummer and film maker, this movie really inspires me. Although I never want to drum until my hands are covered in blood nor get t-boned by a truck, sorry for the spoilers, it drives me to become better at both drumming and film making. From the amazing audio to the fact that you can feel Miles Teller's pain, this movie was so well put together. Every scene had you holding on, and that's what I want to do with the films I make. Let the audience feel what the characters are feeling and sending shivers down their spine and goosebumps onto their skin. This story is about a college kid majoring in music, but it's about a lot more than that. A passion for music, a close relationship with his father, a love interest, and an abusive teacher makes the story different. I don't really believe I could say anything to improve this movie, I have watched it over and over again, once listening to the music, once picking out details in the cinematography, once on an airplane where every curse word was censored by JK Simmons saying the funniest and most ridiculous things.
