Watching the performance was OK but what about the script?

Rating: 6/10 (23 February 2015)

Yes the music was good, and it was lovely to watch how it is made. I love jazz, I used to play jazz drums, so for me I subjectively loved the drum scenes. However, there is something odd about it. Nothing has come to conclusion as it should be. I would expect more from the personal details of the main character. I do not even remember his name right now. I can watch many videos on you tube on excellent jazz drummers. What does this movie add to that? Nothing. I could not even watch the applause which I was expecting at the end, or a contract, or some words from the father, or a nice closure from the ex- girlfriend.
I give it a 6 for the sake of performance, but not the sake of script or directing. The characters could go much deeper on their lives. Maybe this movie could be a little longer to go into those details which make it a movie more than a drum performance video.
Very forgettable, when compared to Fame as an example...
