Movies Of 2016 (252 movies items)"Whiplash was one of my last year's Top 5 movies. The story is simple but strong and the performances were great. J.K Simmons portrayal of cruel and harsh music teacher is pure genius. It's one of the few performances in film history that i can watch till the end of days without getting bored. He surely deserved he's Oscar from this."

“Since I kept hearing some really good things about this flick, I was really eager to check it out. Well, I wasn't disappointed, that's for sure. In my opinion, it is basically some kind of dark version of 'Fame' mixed with a nail-biting thriller. Still, even though J.K. Simmons was really amazing, giving the best performance of his career, they went really far with this character.

BradWesley123's Movie Journal- March 2015 (27 movies items)" DVD- 1hr. 47min. First Viewing There are a lot of words that I could use to describe Whiplash, but few would do it justice. Simply; it's a thrilling, complex portrait of the dark side of talent. The film excels in every department, especially Chazelle's brilliant direction and near-perfect (Oscar Winning) editing by Tom Cross. It also helps that the weight of the film is left to its two leads; Teller does some excellent work, balancing his character's vulnerability and ambition, and Simmons giv"
