seb f Best film I have ever watched! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/18/25 Full Review Paul M Someone on here said was the worst ending ? The ending was the whole point of the film! He never had a Andrew Parker and he got one ! This was absolute cinema ! Masterpiece of a film!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/16/25 Full Review Heiner S Terribly boring I got annoyed at the excessive head shakily, staring thoughtfully into space and drumming I didn’t get Rated 1 out of 5 stars 12/29/24 Full Review SkyRo P The film "Whiplash," featuring Miles Teller and J.K. Simmons, made its return to theaters after its initial release. Curious to see what the buzz was about, I decided to watch it since I had never seen it before. The story revolves around a young drummer who is pushed to his limits by a fiercely demanding music instructor. After viewing it, I found the experience rather dull and struggled to understand why it was considered so compelling, particularly worthy of a theatrical re-release after all these years. To me, the film felt flat and lacked excitement, unless you’re a musician who could appreciate the nuances of the music world. It's the kind of movie that you might watch once but wouldn't feel the urge to see again—unless, of course, you have a deep passion for music. Unfortunately, that isn’t the case for me, and I didn’t find anything that truly held my interest or made me want to revisit it. While the performances were commendable, I felt the pacing and storyline left much to be desired, making it a slow watch overall. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 11/09/24 Full Review Gortee U This movie is soo good that now i wish my teachers couls teach me like that Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/25/24 Full Review Luis R You better watch it!
