one of the best movies of 2014

Rating: 9/10 (12 February 2015)

Without any expectations, without any cue I went onto seeing this movie but I wasn't prepared for a Jazz thing which I never experienced before. J.K.Simmons nailed it.
A simple story in which a smart student tries to get the appreciation of a tough guy. This story is mingled with the drum thing and jazz thing to get a fabulous performance from both the lead actors and when it ended, I just thought may be some more?!
One of the best movies of 2014 for sure. Support for low-budget movies like this is very appreciable. Wish I was in America to catch this on its opening!
