Over-hyped but a Terrific Drama

Rating: 8/10 (14 January 2015)

Whiplash(2014) is a story of a wanted to be top- jazz drummer and his teacher at the music college. J.K.Simmons who played the role of ruthless,strict master is terrific in his role. I had a good 100 minute watch. What made me to watch this film is its trailer, perfectly cut, impactive. Watch the trailer, and then the film, only if you are interested to watch terrific performances. The plot is a bit week. Film didn't match the hype of critics at various film festivals, yet it is fantastic. See, I thought Miles Teller was playing some real life character. That is the reason ,I say it is Terrific. I don't know what drives the jury of those film festivals. We expected more out of it, yes but only because of the showoff in the trailer,ratings shown on posters. Ironically, its not showoff it is real.
