Just loved it!

Rating: 10/10 (12 August 2015)

Could have never thought that a movie about music can be so breath taking and thrilling, throughout the movie i just felt intense, there wasn't a point where it lost its intensity. A fantastic journey of a young and extremely determined drummer who goes through trial and error with his obsessive mentor.
The way Fletcher taught his students maybe seems a bit too harsh etc., but that is the journey of being truly the best and the greatest in something, you need to completely devote your life to it. Andrew completely devoted his life to being the best drummer he could be and despite Fletcher treating him like a complete thrash, he went back to being in Fletcher's band and eventually showing him how great he really is.
I love how this movie solely focuses on Fletcher and Andrew, it is all about Andrew being the best drummer possible. The viewers do not get distracted with other people's stories and problems. An excellent part of the movie was Andrew's decision to break up with his newly acquired girlfriend Nicole, just to pursue his drumming carrier, many people, especially, feminists are probably going to dislike this, but it was there just for the purpose of showing that you have to sacrifice a lot to get to the highest point, in my opinion, it fitted really well into the movie. For a second, when Andrew started to have interest in this girl, i was worried that the great plot would get over-taken by a laughable and dull relationship, which you can see in every other movie out there. Thank god none of that happened and they didn't spend a lot of the screen time on that.
Definitely an awesome watch! I recommend it to everybody, even those like myself who think movies about music are boring, i was wrong in this case for sure!
