Unstoppable

Rating: 9/10 (23 August 2015)

-What's your name? -Andrew Neiman sir. -What year are you? -I'm a first year. -You know who I am? -Yes sir. -So, you know that I'm looking for players? -Yes sir. -Then, why did you stop playing?
Andrew starts to play.
-Did I ask you to start playing again? -Uh sorry, I -I ask why youstop playing and your version of an answer was to turn into a wind-up monkey.
This is just the beginning.
Is it necessary to get through everything Andrew Neiman does? Does an over strain mean success? He gets close to the edge for his dream; he risks his life at some points. In my opinion; the effort works out. I read some reviews that emphasized the film director goes too far with the premise of the movie. It's true, he almost crosses the line with Neiman's biggest dream, and he exemplifies it with the teacher. That is absolutely necessary only to know the effort a person needs to achieve his goal. Both have an unbreakable stubbornness and perseverance on what they want: Fletcher squeezes his students to reach the highest; Neiman wants to be the best drummer of all time.
It's very easy to step into Andrew's shoes. Damien Chazelle handles a majestic direction and an astonishing edition that makes you feel the same emotions as the main character. The director uses several hands, face, eyes and ears closeups with thrilling transitions between them. You suffer in the same way Neiman does. The car impact is breathtaking and Justin Hurwitz's theme: "Accident" fits in perfectly. An outstanding, well-deserved Oscar edition. Exceptional OST. Pure jazz.
I felt hyperactive when I left the movie theater and I wanted more. I was sweating as Andrew Neiman. The drums and cymbals were echoing inside my head all the time. The movie doesn't stop, the rhythm never slows down, the drums are unstoppable.
The film industry needs musical-themed movies like Whiplash. Music is the best art in order to show our emotions, and combined with the filmmaking create something unique.
