great film

Rating: 10/10 (23 January 2015)

Great film about the lengths and obsession with wanting to achieve greatness. Miles Teller plays a young guy who plays the drums in a band. He is being taught by a hard has nails teacher. Played brilliantly by J.K Simmons. His performance reminded me of the drill sergeant in Full Metal Jacket. You really get to see what it takes to make it in a cut throat world of competitive music. J.K Simmons as the teacher is amazing. Harsh, but you can see where is coming from. That anger, and desire to help students succeed. If you've ever wanted to achieve something in the arts, or in anything. This film will inspire you. It is a great movie. One of the best of 2014. I Highly recommend it
