5.0 out of 5 starsBOOM!
ByKanwar Anandon 12 April 2015
If you have not seen this film, I suggest you stop reading my review right about now and go watch it.
WHIPLASH is one of the best films to come out last year (14) and I must say it is the one that took me by surprise. Whiplash here refers to a band that everybody wants to be part of. The story involved is about a drummer who wants to be really good because drumming is his life but when he meets a very cynical teacher, his hobby is forced to become a passion. The teacher has all the passion in the world, his passion is dangerous, he tries to instil the same in all the members of Whiplash. He changes the jazz band's composition every now and then.
Our hero wants to be a great summer, he wants to be accepted into Whiplash. He is concentrating hard, his father does not think much of him, he has no friends and the one girlfriend he does somehow make he loses because he thinks it interferes with drumming.
So there you have it nicely and abruptly set up. I thought JJ SIMMONS was outstanding and he deserved the OSCAR. The film ends leaving you gasping in wonder and delight at what just happened. My wife and I didn't know where to look. It's so good, I've seen the ending several times. It has this ability, I can't put a word on it. JUST GO WATCH.
At Rs 490, this is a steal for your family or just for you alone. It is worth purchasing.

ByVinod P.on 19 March 2016
Full marks for the movie, Full marks to amazon. But the bluray is sub standard quality and the pic shown here looks different than what you receive.

a freakingly amazing movie on the world of music and how competitive and tough it is to reach the top....blood, sweat and tears is not enough apparently....in its own way this movie will lock your attention more than any fast paced action thrillers do...the movie revolves around its two lead actors - one an ambitious talented though shy Jazz student Andrew (Miles Teller) and his teacher Fletcher (JK Simmons) at America's best music school who drives his students to deliver perfection whatever be the cost... JK Simmons is the star of this movie and his performance earned him rightly an Academy award...the music, tight direction, editing, performances, dialogues all come together to make this movie one of the best in recent times....
A must watch for music lovers and players and even those who don't

It is perfect as a movie. Really outstanding performance. Well deserved Oscar for best supporting actor. BUT ... it is fundamentally wrong with the story that it creates the impression that it takes only enormous practice to become a genius. It is simply not that way.

Got tense from the start to the end.
What a drama!
Harsh world of professionals.
Not sweet.
Not gentle, sometimes.
