Electrifying and provocative

Rating: 10/10 (28 February 2015)

If anybody out there has a passion for something, don't let anybody else take it away from you or push you to the edge, no matter what. If you're good at something, do it. There a lot of people out there who will provoke you endlessly and make your blood boil, so do not give them that benefit. This film made me believe in that fact once more, and took my breath away. Anybody with a dream, an intention, a vision of their future, has to see this motion picture event!!!! This is not a musical, this is not just a movie about drumming, DO NOT walk in with that misconception. WHIPLASH is a both electrifying and provocative well-paced drama that asks "what is the true definition of motivation" or as the AFI see it "What is the line between mentor and monster?". I urge you to check it out!!!!! If you're not at the edge of your seat while watching this once-in-a-lifetime masterpiece, something is wrong with you!!
