Perfection

Rating: 10/10 (29 July 2016)

This modern masterpiece has earned it's place among the greats, with a perfect cast and an even more perfect crescendo of tension. This is the way story telling should be done, not with one dimensional characters or feuds driven by murder but real emotions like jealousy, pride and respect. It is refreshingly original to walk through a characters experiences of hate and disdain, only to arrive at the same feeling of validation and respect at the end of the film, making Whiplash a truly cathartic experience. rightfully referred to as a thriller because it draws on the excitement of the mundane modern life and puts the audience through an emotional roller-coaster that is heightened by the use of sound and lighting that creates this visually aesthetic masterpiece.
